Still in Eugene, still waiting for the repairs to start.  Slow is the turn of insurance company’s wheels.  Aggravatingly slow.

We spoke with Bob Tiffin (owner of Tiffin RV Company) this morning and he agreed to do the forward slide leak repair due to a manufacturer’s mistake, two sections of sealant were missing when it was put together back in 2008.  This is why we bought a Tiffin and why we will forever sing their praises.  It even has John thinking about trading in the 2008 for a 2013 when we get back from Alaska.

Love the local Alton Barton Park that surrounds our Inn and includes the dog park just up the street.  The park, just out our window with a beautiful pond and paths, goes on for many miles, running through the middle of town and spreading out in all directions.   I wasn’t that much of a fan at first.  When the weather was cold, many of the homeless lived under piles of clothes and blankets at the base of trees and under the bridge and even under picnic tables.  I didn’t mind the people, but many of them had Pit-bulls and they aren’t attentive to their dogs.  I also was not fond of all the geese and duck poop on the sidewalks.  Now that the weather has improved, the geese and ducks have moved to the pond and we only see the homeless on the street corners.
