Electric Awning Support Poles

Our awning would flop around like crazy with just a small amount of wind. It was easy enough to just hit the button and retract the awning when the wind blew. The only thing was it was retracted more than I was able to use  it. I found on Forest River's forum several people had the same complaint. I also found a cure. Awning poles!  I was able to get a set of poles and brackets that permanently mount and can be deployed when needed. They work great.

Dam West Campground, Carlyle, IL

We came back to this campground one more time this year. Fourteen days, our longest stay here. Then a week after we leave the campground closes for the year. But I already have reservations for April 2016 when it opens back up.




Just enjoying the weather and taking it easy.






Playing a lot of games









Eating good as always









Carol even had a lesson on filleting fish. Al & Rich caught several white bass and Carol helped them clean them.

Lake Shelbyville

This trip was a Gathering of A-Frames event.
We went to a new park that we haven't been to. Lithia Springs Corps campground. 
It was a very nice campground. Our site was very nice with full hookups. Some sites were right on the water. We saw several that we liked. 
As always with this group we had a good time.


We did a little bike riding.









Played jarts too





Tom & Kathy just picked up a new Aliner Expedition 
with two dormers!






Scott playing with his cool toy.







The Pot luck was excellent





















The trees are starting to turn





Another successful  Gathering
