Jan 4, 2013 - Ashland, VA

Last night when we pulled into the Lickdale Campground Brad discovered the battery in the Saturn was dead. This morning he pulled into a rest stop on top of a mountain in Maryland and while there decided to try the car again. When he did he put it in park. It still wouldn't start but then he couldn't get the car out of park so we could go nowhere. He called AAA. In about 45 minutes a battery truck from Hagaerstown pulled in. The man was very thorough - cleaned all terminals, bolts, etc. with a wire bruch then did a computer scan to test the...

Sep 6, 2010 - Homebound; Travel to Ashland, VA

September 6 – Travel to Ashland, VA; RV Tire Failure Our travel to Ashland, VA was interrupted by our tire pressure monitor alarm sounding and the right, front RV tire pressure flashing and dropping rapidly on the monitor screen. I keep the RV cold tire pressure at 65 PSI. The pressure increased to 70 PSI at 60 MPH and goes to 75 PSI when the tires are in the sun. When the alarm came on, the pressure was at 57, then 54, then 48 etc. I pulled over on the berm of the 4-lane, Route 30 and braked hard to keep off of a bridge with no berm....

Apr 9, 2010 - We finally made it

Today was our longest day yet. We started driving at 8:00 am this morning and arrived at Stephanie's at 8:30 pm. It was a very long day! Since this was our last day, we reflected a lot on our trip. Being with our son and grandchildren was the highlight of our trip, but the journey was awesome. We saw so many things...a blizzard in Amarillo, dust storms in Arizona, neon lights and glitter in Sin City, rock formations in the vast deserts, stepped back in time on Rt. 66 and we stood on the corner in Winslow, AZ. Each day seemed to be filled...

We got a late start but we are in no hurry. This is our first trip with our new Chevy HHR Toter. It has only 600 miles on it. I had it out only a few times on a test run. It tows well and the SMI Brake System works great. I chose the Chevy HHR because it can be towed four wheels down and I only have to pull one fuse. That one fuse is for the ignition switch, so the miles traveled will not add to the odometer reading. How nice is that.! We traveled 225 miles on our first day. We are never in a hurry so we are spending our first night at...
