Singing the praises of Ameri-Camp

December 22nd, 2006 · 2 Comments

So, with the rain, we’ve noticed a small leak in the skylight in the bathroom.  We actually noticed it in the small town we were in, and started looking into replacing it.  Kids got sick; everyone sick, put it on the backburner.  We did a lot of looking around on the internet and a couple places B&M (brick & mortar) but couldn’t find our exact size.  So I call up AmeriCamp and ask them for a price (we’re out of warranty) to replace it and some other goodies.  They give me a price and I say, great!  Send it General Delivery…but UPS doesn’t do General Delivery.  So I figure out a way to get it to us and call them back; they are upgrading the delivery from Ground to 2nd Day Air, sending us the skylight and the goodies and NOT CHARGING US A DIME!  I even pooh-poohed his offer and tried to give our CC#; he wouldn’t budge.  They’re sending us everything 2nd day air and won’t take money.  What a company!

    Yeah! for Ameri-camp again!

    We went to see Bill’s 96yo grandfather today in Wharton, and took the scenic route home through Palacious and Port Lavaca (seafood run). That front came back through and cooled things off a bit. The bay was CHURNING, so I was curious how it is there at Goose Island!
