It's a nice sunny day here in the north but still chilly and folks are shaking off the cabin fever and getting out to shop.  Got a couple of nice families into Hot Water today and one customer stopped back in to get a 50K BTU patio heater.  One is coming in for a soak a little later and we have implemented a new policy for water tests, they don't get their clothes back until we write the order. ;) ;D

Slower today than any other day this week ??? Who knows, maybe it's because the "glowing orb in the sky" decided to make an appearance today.

Just finished a Envoy wet test with a lovely lesbian couple.  They loved it, and will have it in their backyard on Wednesday.  Sold a Vanguard earlier today.  Pretty productive for our Saturdays.  I lost one sale because the snuck a peak at Terms Delorian photo and high tailed it out the door. ;D

Well, we can't all be Rock Hudson now, can we....

It's been intermittently active today.  Had a couple buy (what else) an Envoy.  Had a serious fella call me back to check on availability of a Prodigy, had a couple I hope will be on the BeBack Bus, and one guy that told me he was from Houston and wanted to know if we'd deliver to there (4 hours away).  I told him there are probably a couple of HS dealers in his neck of the woods. ::)

It would be extremely tacky and politicially incorrect of me to ask for pictures on Wednesday, so I won't.

Hey Term,
Thanks for asking. Its been raining all day here in New Jersey, which probably helped traffic flow today in the shop. Today was supposed to be opening day for Little Leauge Baseball, for most communities. The rain canceled most events. It also gave most husbands the day off from spring yard work. Overall things picked up the last two weeks of March, following a slow February and early March. April is off to a good start. Hopefully, we will  get into some warm weather that stays around for good. Dave.

Wife has me beat by amost $200 !!!! She sold a Grandee with a lift and I sold an Elation with a lift.

So - that's one bypass and one no-bypass, in case anyone's keepin' score.

One bottom-drainer, and one side-wall-drainer.

Bald Knob.  

Sheesh.

These were more like softball players than lipstick lesbians.  I love both and appreciate the business.

Why do they compromise and make a "side-wall" drainer, when the others are "bottom" drainers?  Will they change that in the future? ???

That's the way Caldera has been making them for 30 years. Haven't heard about a change in the works.
