After we left Jo and Ben, we headed north toward our next stop, a client’s home near Tryon NC. The route Google Maps, as well as our RV Garmin, wanted us to take us straight through Atlanta, but we were uninterested in driving through Atlanta. I’ve experienced Atlanta traffic and with the help of my Motor Carriers Atlas, I found us a route that went completely around.

After a quick overnight at the Walmart in Eatonton GA, we arrived at our client’s home. This was a first for us, as clients usually come to where we were. When I first contacted Pat about where his install would take place, he offered his home as a place we could come to. He sent me pics of his property. He sent me video clips of him driving up his driveway to show we could make it up to his property. He sent us pics of the garage his Airstream was kept in, where Bill could work without a care in the world about the weather, and wouldn’t need to put the RV back together each night since the client would be staying in his house. After discussing options, we decided to take him up on his generous offer.

Pat met us at the bottom of his street driving his buggy, ready to lead us up to his property. The road became a dirt/gravel road and he recommended Bill put the truck in 4×4 to get up the hill he’d have to climb. I’ve got to admit, I was a little concerned about the whole thing, but once we got to the top all that nervousness faded away. What a beautiful property and view he had! Pat and Bill discussed where exactly we could park and we were settled in quickly.

Pat and Bill went into the garage and discussed the details of the install. The garage was large, with plenty of room to spread out tools and supplies.

Aside from running to the grocery store, I stayed home, helping Bill when I could and catching up on some chores. The only negative was the signal was not the best for the internet, but calls were fine. Pat graciously let me mooch some wifi to get some banking and reservations done.

Since Pat had some beautiful landscaping around his property, I got a few great shots of some flowers (including the Dogwood flowers above) and a cute video clip of a bumblebee.

Pat was a wonderful host, even treating us to a delicious BBQ lunch one day! He was thrilled with how his system came out, and has already called to tell Bill how well it worked on his first trip out with it. Another happy client in the books!
