State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K,

The Company requests additional time to prepare separate

Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The Company anticipates the filing of its Form 10-K to occur
no later than 15 calendar days following the prescribed due
date in accordance with Rule 12b-25, section (b)(2)(ii) of the
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, should

that the registrant was required to file such reports)

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in
results of operations from the corresponding period for

portion thereof?
[x] Yes [ ] No
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change,
both narratively and quantitatively, and, if
appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
Registrant expects its results of operations to have
decreased to an operating loss of approximately $47,000
for the twelve months ended October 31, 2000, from an operating
income of approximately $373,000 for the twelve months ended
October 31, 1999. This decrease resulted primarily as a result
of a decrease in sales of recreational vehicles and manufactured
homes.
