Making New Friends in Shelburne, Vermont
We had a wonderful thing happened when we were visiting the Shelburne Museum. A lady walked up to me and asked if Sanibel Island had been very damaged by the Florida hurricanes (I was wearing a Sanibel backpack). This started a conversation about rving and before we knew it, Thea had invited us to visit her and her husband at their home nearby in Shelburne. We agreed to stop by before our visit to the area was over.
Three days later, we were taking a Dixieland Jazz cruise on Lake Champlain, and there we bumped into Thea and Robert, her husband. They began telling us of great places to visit in the area and again reminded us to be sure and visit them at their home before we leave.
This is one of the great things we have discovered in our adventures that people are so very friendly and helpful. They are interested and willing to spend time with strangers getting to share experiences. We are planning to visit them before we leave the area.
Another great experience here--Walter took the truck for regular servicing to the local Dodge dealer. While there, he mentioned to them that he was installing Sirius Radio and needed a schematic of the ceiling console. Did they have a manual he could buy? They said yes, but the manual cost $150. Wait a minute, and we will copy the section you need which they did without charge. This was really amazing as they were busy with other customers, but took the time to help us.
