[whatsnewell]

Elaine and I were heading back to Bluff, UT after a wonderful afternoon of site seeing when we decided, on a whim, to turn on to a road labeled "Gooseneck State Park". Had never heard of it, and had no idea what we were going to find at the end this short 4 mile detour. Well, we found Edwin and Lydia from Holland in their 2004 42' Newell, 2 slide, steering tag coach. He has been cruising our site for a while without registering, but I think I convinced him to join after talking with he and his wife for about an hour. They live in Holland, but fly to the USA every three months and travel in their Newell.....3 months in, and 3 months out. They leave the Newell at Newell in Miami when they are in Holland.

They are both the sweetest people, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with them. Once again I have to say you meet the nicest people in a Newell!

Their view of the canyon is spectacular. This place is free, but limited to 14 days. They prefer dry camping. Edwin had AM Solar install 1,000 watts of solar panels on his roof, and he as been able to isolate most of his systems they do not draw continuously....only when he wants them to.

He has an on going problem with his Atlas radiator springing leaks. Newell has been covering all the issue under warranty, but it is a perplexing problem as to why the core keeps springing leaks. Newell has replaced the radiator three, or four times, but still the problems continue to crop up. Hopefully he will join the site, and some of you can offer some solutions.
