Every year, our church does a raffle during their spring bizarre. And being that it is in the LA area, there are alot of people, and many of them seem to have an inordinate amount of cash to throw around. I don't, but given this year's prize, I jumped. Tickets are $200 each, and the prize is usually something substantial, like a mid-priced car.

This year, at my suggestion (selfless, of course), I suggested a Trailmanor. Seemed like a perfect fit. Alot of the churchgoers have kids, and being in the beach area, lots of people like to be outdoors and go camping. So they agreed!

The drawing was supposed to be on Sunday, but got delayed because they hired a independent company to officiate the raffle on a pro bono basis, and the company had to postpone because they ended up having another event Sunday. So it was held last night.

I just got a call that I won!! The prize is $25k to spend at Custom RV (the local dealer), so I think I am going to get the 3023. Or maybe a 3124KB. Decisions, decisions..... It will be great to have some extra room when we take company along.

WOOOOHOOO!!! I am going out to grab a beer!

If you get a new TM with a working toilet, where are we going to go for help on our old Thetfords?

Why am I so certain that I'm going to see Dave's 2720sl at Pismo in September?

Now, if he just said he was going to go to Topeka to get it.

All of you who doubted my sincerity had good reason. While I REALLY wish it were true, happy April Fools. I guess the joke's on me too....I was kinda sorta starting to believe it myself.

Does that mean you are not going to get a new Thetford? I guess that means the joke is on you!!!

A new Thetford? Ha! I'd settle for a new recirculating toilet that actually works well!

So, I'm confused. Did you generate the April Fool's joke? Or did someone perpetrate it on you?
