7,200 miles in our Four Winds
The title pretty much says it all. We left Florida in late May headed to our old stomping grounds on Whidbey Island, WA. All in all a great trip with only two problems along the way. On leaving Whidbey we pulled in to a Les Schwabb tire center to check the air pressure in the tires and the young lady helping us found a very low tire (30 lbs). She felt around the tire tread and found a screw that for sure should not have been there. Of course it was the inside rear tire! They went to work while we walked over to our favorite Mexican restaurant. By the time we got back it was remounted and ready to roll. Since we were old customers there was no charge for the repair.
About half way home the Seiki tv decided it was not in any mood to be a tv ever again. No big loss as it never was very good at its job. The rest of the trip home meant we had the opportunity to entertain ourselves with the musical instruments that we always travel with and we never missed the tv at all.
All in all a great trip. Next year we plan on taking the southern route and seeing New Mexico, Arizona and California once again. This last trip was number 6 traveling around our great country.
