On the road again… la-de-da-de-da, we couldn’t wait to get on the road again…. So the tranny was finally finished on Tuesday at 5:30pm. They added an extra transmission cooler and a temp gauge. So we left at 5:30 and went as far as Indio, Ca that night, arriving around 9:30. The equipment ran great! This morning we set off from Indio and decided to get as close to Tucson, AZ as we could. We’re at a great spot in Picacho, AZ. We all went swimming and are now enjoying a daquiri outside.
So the thing is … we need to stop at Camping World in Tucson tomorrow and buy a new fridge/freezer unit (!!$$-ka-ching-$$!!). Yes one more disruption. But hey.. we have our health (knock knock) and the RV is running well now (knock knock). Once we install it, we hope to be done by noon and get on to our next destination, Carlsbad Caverns. By the time we hit the Austin/San Antonio area on the 24th, we’ll be back on schedule.
In order to accommodate the delay, we had to cut out the route through the Petrified Forest and Santa Fe, and one day near Austin saving 6 days in all. But we were lucky enough to visit the Reed Petrified Forest in Sky Forest, CA and get this nice shot of us next to a HUGE petrified tree thingy. Speaking of Sky Forest, our undying gratitude goes to my brother Dan and sister in law Diane for tolerating us for an entire 6 nights. We did some cool stuff, had some great food and really enjoyed the solitude of their place in the woods.
