The First Day of the KY-MN-NY Tour






Ugh~~~!
We are snug in our hotel in Eastern Nevada....10 hours behind schedule.
There is a cursed Gas station in Reno. A few Years ago we stopped there, gassed up, then couldn't restart the car...the battery died....three hours later we were on the road.
Today we pull in, gas up, and then notice the trailer's tire was tilting at a 10 degree angle...the Axel got bent....we are guessing it was from the badly pocked Hwy 80 between hwy 20 and the NV border....it shook the car a lot.
We found a uhaul place and soon discovered it would be insanely expensive to rent a trailer for a month. But we did find a nice man who would let us store our trailer at his house while we were gone. Another man told us about a trailer repair shop...but it wasn't open.
Well, we left the trailer at the nice man's house (his name is Kelly) and drove back to home base to pick up our BIG trailer. (Bye Bye Gas mileage). Several hours later and we are back on the road.
We were supposed to be in Cheyenne tonight but Wells, NV was a welcome sight after a 18 hour day!
We will pick the 6X10 trailer in August.
And on we go with the 7X14 trailer

All things work out for God's Purposes even when we don't understand how or why....ask JOB!
