Spontaneity

Jeff and I are both pretty spontaneous people. We don't mind heading out without a plan. You might call today a 'case-in-point'.

Yesterday we saw an RV on Craigslist that we knew we had to see. It was much bigger than the ones we'd seen that are in our price range AND was priced well beneath what we thought we might have to spend. It looks AWESOME and plus it's called "King of the Road". Hello! :) It had been on Craigslist for a few days before we got a chance to call on it, so we were worried it might have already been sold. When we called this morning, we were delighted to find it had not sold, but that they had had tons of calls.

What we DON'T want to have happen is for it to be sold before we get a chance to even look at it. That has happened almost half a dozen times already. I'm sure that is the case with most stuff on Craigslist that is well priced. Part of our problem is that we're looking in Boise/Twin Falls because there are almost NO trailers for sale here in the Orem/Provo area. We hadn't been willing to take a trip up there for any particular trailer until now. With our experience in losing several before we had a chance to look, we are jumping on this one.

SOOO after Jeff got off with Mark (the guy with the RV), he turned to me and said, "wanna go look at it?" [Keep in mind it is 4 hours away]. I said, "today?" to which he replied, "ya". :)

Long story short, as soon as I finish this post, we will get the house cleaned up, then we'll pack and get on the road to look at that trailer. :) Not sure if we'll buy it or not - we'd like to have my dad or grandpa or uncle Marq come check it out with us (since we are both a little clueless when it comes to this kind of stuff...for now). But we'll at least see if it's even worth the extra inspection before we drag either of them into it from Boise...more to come!
