On the Road Again

Well we are on the move again. We stayed in Harlingen one extra night to go see (Branson's) Country Artist Barbara Fairchild. She is a good friend of mom's and we saw she was coming to town. The show was great, it was a sell out of 400 tickets. It was held at a nearby Retirement Park. We took another couple with us and ended up at IHOP with Barbara and her husband Roy and 2 of their friends after the show. If was a great time.
We left Thurs. 2/8 and soon started having engine problems. We were sputtering and putting down the highway. We got about 30 miles down the road and found an RV repair shop and they couldn't get to us until this morning (Friday). They had full hookups in the parking lot so we spent the night in their parking lot and we were fixed and on our way by 10:30 a.m.. Well all was going well and the new plugs and wires had the RV rolling along better than ever when someone passed us waving their hands and making some kind of gestures. Jack decided he best stop and make sure we had no problems, well one flat tire change later we were on our way again. Luckily it was on the car and not the RV. So the 3rd day is the charm, right! We are going to get 4 new tires on the car in the morning and then be off again. We are headed to Big Bend Park in TX. I will try to post pictures of the park. Not sure when we will have Internet again.
Happy Trails :)
