Late yesterday afternoon we had the privilege of taking delivery of a beautiful new 2015 Custom T@B-CS camping trailer at the Pleasant Valley factory in Sugarcreek OH. After an opportunity to hobnob with Joe Mullet and several members of his team, we spent time with Ed and Marvin learning several of the new features of this beautiful piece of Amish craftsmanship. By the time we were pulling out of the drive it was dark and cold. We opted to stay one night at nearby Bear Creek KOA. Knowing that we had two heat sources in the camper, we left the space heater in the bed of the pick-up. Bad move. We learned two things. One is that were still need to learn how to use the ALDE radiant heating system. The other is that it is indeed true that a heat pump does not work at temperatures below freezing. It did work long enough to warm the cabin and to let us fall asleep but we awakened in the middle of the night to realize we had no heat -not good on a night with a low of 19 degrees! The good news is that the trailer is already winterized and we had plenty of blankets.
Stotfold – A Family Adventure
With Karen’s sister, niece, and her family we visited Stotfold England to walk in the footsteps of ancestors and to explore a lovingly restored historic water mill.
