A WORD ABOUT RV TIRES WE DIDN'T KNOW WE NEEDED
Apparently, tires on a motorhome should be changed every seven years regardless of the fact that a motorhome may have only put a few thousand miles on those tires. Tires are made of material that breaks down over time, especially if left sitting out in the sun. Since the previous owners spent their winters down in Arizona, the tires have had a fair amount of sunshine heating them up, and this is what has led to the kind deterioration that requires replacement. So, Ron called a few tire places to get prices for the mamoth tires that make our new home mobile, and he learned that we must fork over twenty five hundred dollars as soon as possible. Fortunately, we have a friend whose husband works in the tire department of a certain company that is headquartered in our backyard, and we are now down to forking over two thousand dollars. We thank the good Lord for friends. And now, as soon as the metal place gives us back the new and improved and stronger frame for the rv bed, we will take the motorhome over to the tire company and fork over all of our garage sale money plus a hefty check for new tires we didn't know we needed.

OH NO!!! How heartbreaking! All that lovely garage sale money for stupid tires! But on the other hand....the Lord did provide for what He knew you needed, so I guess...Praise the Lord anyway!
