It doesn't look too bad, but consider that A: this pic was taken mid-afternoon before we had neighbors, and B: this was a site on the end of a row that required us to make a 250 degree turn to exit. We did it, but had to unhook the tow car and "back-and-forth" it several times!
Next morning, our last of the trip, we hit I-80 again and finally got back to Cali!
Pulling into home 175 miles later, it was immediately apparent that some cleaning was needed to the motorhome. Along with the flagpole installation and some cleaning in 90+ degree heat, reminded me why I don't like the Dog Days of Summer!
But we had the carrot on a stick out in front of us: two burgers at In-n-Out! Extra crispy fries and a chocolate shake!
This summers trip was considerably shorter than normal because we needed to return to address some health issues, but it was nevertheless a good summer. We practically ran back to the motorhome factory for some repairs, then visited friends and family for a month or so, and then it was time to come home. We met Larry and Debbie in Forest City, Iowa, Dave and Toni in Charlotte, Michigan, Chris at the motorhome factory, and Bill and Diane in Michigan. The summer had it's ups and downs, but rather than get discouraged by the number of trees in the forest, we're concentrating on just one at a time and keeping a sharp axe!
We managed to drive the tow car 3,406 miles in 90 days, while putting 6,392 miles on the motorhome! Almost 10,000 miles in three months! It was a good time overall, and we are blessed to have the opportunity to see so much of this wonderful country, and have so many good people in our extended and immediate family.
We'll be stuck in NorCal for the foreseeable future, so I won't be posting much. Next stop....Arizona in the Winter!
