It seems like it never fails that something goes wrong at the beginning of another chapter of "The Big Adventure." This time it wasn't the Motorhome, but the house. It seems that the programmable timer for the front porch lights that I installed about a month ago decided to die last night around midnight. I spent about 2 hours resetting and reprogramming only to have it fail each time. So this morning at about 6:30, I was at the Home Depot making an exchange! Got the new timer installed and programed, we got the motorhome loaded up and hit the road at 10:00 a.m. We made it to a campground in Coburg Oregon at 4:30 p.m. Tomorrow the plan is to make it to Redding California. We are trying to travel 250 to 300 miles per day. That way we don't have to try to get on the road at the crack of dawn, and we can still make our destination before dark. We should make our destination in Apache Junction either on Tuesday or Wednesday. It just depends on how much time we spend visiting on the way.
We're really glad that we got the furnace in the motorhome fixed yesterday as the temperature didn't make it to 50 today, and tomorrow doesn't look any better. Now I just need to keep an eye on the propane tank so we don't run out.
We haven't had anything to take pictures of yet, but when we do we will post some.
I think it's time to hit the shower and get some sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ernie
