OK, so while we wait for word on the disposition of the RV transmission, we took a trip to Universal Studios Theme Park. It was good fun and a nice diversion from the woes of the broken RV. I guess you can say that the tickets to Universal Studios cost us over $2,000 .. when you include the cost of the transmission repairs.
Ironically, we were in the Haunted House when the shop called me with the estimate. As it turns out we were "lucky" and because we stopped driving fairly soon when we noticed the leak, the transmission had no real
internal damage as a result of the leaks ... so just bad seals, complete checkout, and added extra transmission cooler and temp gauge. It is supposed to be ready Monday. So we cut out Petrified Forest and Sante Fe NM from the route and will pickup on schedule at Carlsbad Caverns, TX.
Meanwhile, we're enjoying a great stay at Dan and Diane's beautiful log home in SkyForest, CA. We had a great dinner at the Mission Inn with niece Shelley and her kids, Zack and Katie, and nephew Dan. Rumor is brother Darryl worked once upon a time!
