Join us as we travel North America in our Holiday Rambler Vacationer,
since August 2006
Thursday morning bright and early as usual its 72f (22c) at 6:30 am. Coffees, computing and a walkabout the resort, chat with a few new people and just generally enjoy the weather and fresh air. I spotted this custom RV below converted from an old tractor trailer, they labelled it Green Acres. Notice the large slide out patio at the entrance and the rear has a ramp to allow them to put their motorcycle inside. An eye catching rig for sure.

Puttering around for a bit more of the morning, a bite to eat then we made a trip to Walmart to check out the
Tracfone that Emile and Monique had told us about, they have been using if for two years now. Well we bought one , could not turn down a deal like this. The phone, case, two chargers (one for the car) and headset $9.95 no contract. You add minutes, pay as you go and this phone adds double the minutes that we purchase. It is only good to use in the USA but seeing as we spend 6 months a year here it will work out quite well and save us a lot of money every month. And we can call Canada (and over 100 countries to) as a local call and supposed to be able to set up a local Canadian phone number for family and friends to access us with. We have to wait 48hours to activate those features. For very little money we can try this out.

Back home from Walmart we sat in the shade and I setup the phone and read for a bit. Then took a stroll to visit our friends for a happy (social) hour and back home to fire up the barbie and Fry Daddy to satisfy our craving for wings, fries, veggies and dip.

Notice the controls for this New Map on the left side, you can zoom into different areas of the map and see where we are or have been.
Tracfone sounds great. Let us know cuz we'll pick one up next week. I didn't read the details, how much per minute to call. Loved Green Acres!
ReplyDeleteToo funny we saw this same unit at the Vistor Centre in Natchez, Mississippi in April of 2009.
