Daily BS

Well we are home and back to work. They weekend was quit the adventure to say the least.
It started about two hours after hitting the road Friday night. Just after 1:00am in the morning we blew a tire on the free way. Thank God for cell phones! And AAA insurance! Because the trailer is so long, 36 feet, no one had a flat bed big enough to tow us. So we rolled doing five miles an hour in the dark to the next exit and into a tire store parking lot. It took about 30 minutes to unhook and drop the trailer and then about 2:30 am we ate dinner at a very interesting 24 hour diner before getting three hours of sleep at an an even more interesting motel. But really, as long as no one was hurt, we made the best of it and even had a few laughs.
I think it was 10:30 am Saturday and we were back on the road. Arrived at the campgrounds about 3:00 and started scrubbing and prepping. There turned out to be more working needed then we thought so we have plans to go back up in two weeks to finish. We’re just happy to have the trailer up there where we plan on leaving it and next year enjoy it.

We did sleep in the trailer Saturday night but it was cold and our sleeping bags were still wet. The laundry mat I used packed them in the bag all clean but still wet. I never even thought to check them. But hey, we had towels to use… he he he. I told ya it was an adventure.
