and came home with a big catch. We are now the proud owners of a 1988 Bluebird Wanderlodge XXV (25th anniversary edition). Now I can change my avatar (Kevin said a station wagon was lame). It is 39 feet and 7 inches (ok we call it 40), has a 8V92 and 64,500 something original miles. Just drove her home from Michigan and she ran great. She is a true beauty.
The only negative: sooooo many buttons, soo many options. It is mindboggling.
Will post some pictures soon. It got all the options plus some. And hey who has a full awning on each side of their coach??? Had to brag a little

Where did you find the bus station to park it?

Jim

Good for you two. We can't wait to see the lodge, and the both of you again. Will be looking forward to pictures.

Only had to move 3 cars and a semi to get it in the driveway. Now I have to raise my RV port a foot to get it in there and sell a 19' camper trailer.
To top it off it is a widebody.

That's what 2 of mine asked also. The Monarch went off site for a while while I try to get ready for the WINTER (ouch) season. RV port would be nice .

Don't we all have awings on both sides? Oh you are talking about BIG awnings.

Congratulations on Big Bird. Looking forward to pictures.

Minnesota Pheasant Season Opens tomorrow.. Of course I am working so might try and sneak out end of day!

About a month later the pics showed up in Photobucket. Meanwhile we decided this Bird was just too big for the 2 of us (we like state parks and an Alaska trip, the Bird is too nice for dirt roads). And really do Ineed a washer/dryer and a garden tub and marble kitchen floor to haul down the road? Just got carried away, the Bird flew off to its new home out west where it will enjoy a warm indoor garage during the winter. It sure is a beautiful coach.

BTW that funky looking "watertower" on top is a TV antenna

What was the old saying?????? Your eyes were bigger than your stomach?

I do know where you could get a really nice rig you know the history of and the care it has had. DBarth is still up for sale. She is tough and I would have taken her anywhere.

If I wasn't so tall she'd have been my to the end coach. I love the room of Midnight but I sure see the difference in maneuverability. I have to think a little more in advance.
