Recap time.
We left Arizona on Monday, 8/10, and made it to Simi Valley around 2pm. We stayed at David's until everyone got home from work. We visited with Jodi and David then had a late dinner at Macaroni Grill. Dave and I got on the road Tuesday morning and headed for Bakersfield to pick up our RV, yea it's fixed. The new bigger air conditioner hadn't come in yet so will have to get that installed when we get back in October. We parked the RV in front of the kids house for the next 3 days, and stayed in the house. One way to save money. Miss Madison wanted me to hold her every time she saw me, hold her and walk around as she points to everything. While there every morning Dave and I told their dog, Toby, walking with us, he needed the exercise. Danny told us that the week before Madison had been playing with his phone and even though it was locked Madison managed to somehow dial 911. Danny said he was sitting there then he heard "911 operator what's the emergency" Danny grabbed the phone and said it was a mistake and he was sorry, too funny.
We left Friday and headed for Sacramento but before we got going one of back tires was low on air so we had to fill it. We stayed at the Elk's Lodge in Carmichael and on Saturday visited with Dave's cousins for a little bit then went to his Aunt's house and took her to lunch. As we were getting ready to leave and head for Redding the back tire again was really low this time. We filled it with air again, hooked up the car, then we noticed the back tire on the car was low. We had to unhook the car, drive to the front of the coach and fill the car tire. We stopped a couple times on the way to Redding to check on the tires and they seemed to be OK. Dave thinks the stem on the back tires was loose and that's why our tire kept getting low, he tightened it and it seems to be holding. The car tire seems to be doing good too. I had purchased a book on tapes so listen to on our drive but the radio doesn't seem to be working now. Dave pulled the radio out and there were sunflowers seeds everywhere so we thought maybe those mice, before we killed them, had chewed through a wire but we couldn't find anything. Dave had something to test the speakers and they are working so it is the radio. Now headed for Best Buy for a new radio, this RV is slowly starting to turn into the money pit. :)
That's it for now, Linda will show up tomorrow and we will all head out (4 rigs) on Tuesday. Will be at Marty's on Friday.
I posted new pics
