Shake Down Cruise / Looking More Like Home Part 2

Well it was Friday morning off for our first official Shake Down Cruise.  We had ordered a "custom made" mattress to be delivered between 9 and 11 am.  We had everything loaded and at 9 am started waiting, and waiting....finally I started doing other things, organizing....or maybe I was just going to make things harder to find later....??  So at 11 am Linda called the store and found out  it was going to be more like 12:00, well good things come to those that wait....I hope !!

Bear waiting for her new mattress and ready for Shake Down Cruise.
In the mean time we placed our new rug runner which we like that goes well with the coach colors which we purchased from The Home Depot.  We were going to get a larger one for when the slide was out just like it, but all those in all stores were gone so we found something else at half the price at the Home Store. Picture to follow in next blog post.


 We also got this 4 x 3 rug for up front for 10 dollars that I really like when I go in and out of the "Captains" Chair when ever I have to get out to survey the situation before finally parking sometimes.

So we moved out the old mattress in hopes that St, Nick would soon be there...and this old mattress was so hard not any of the Bears would ever be able to sleep on this so out with the old and in with...

THE NEW MATTRESS....arrived on a flat bed truck two awesome gentleman placed it around noon. They told us it was HOT OFF THE PRESS...now we understood, why they were late...they were still making it this morning, although to me it felt cool to the touch.  Now look at the SIZE of it.  Fifteen inches...after all that work of getting the head board just right... its almost invisible...then.....

after you put the sheets, blankets, comforter and all the pillows on it..Its all but totally invisible, but we know its there and the colors look great with something we had purchased years ago and never really used but now it will be used a lot.  YEAH.



So now with the Bears Den mattress all made up it was off to begin the Shake Down Cruise next but first we need to stop at Target to get some slip rugs for under the runners can I get the Bears Den into the parking lot....lets find out.
