Well, Jerry Hogg and I left this morning at about 6AM from my place in Peoria, AZ. First trouble, we had no running lights. Jerry "MacGyver" Hogg fiddled with it for a few minutes and by then it was light enough we chose not to worry about the lights. Of course, later that day Jer figured out the problem - a bad ground wire on the trailer - and we had running lights that night.
We each drove for about 5 hours and arrived at the Saddleback RV park in Pecos, TX at about 8PM, CDT. The park was nothing fancy but we didn't care. The RV slept well. We learned on Wednesday morning we had more HOT water than needed. We will not run out as long as there is water to heat.
Shane drove through Phoenix (rush hour), Tucson, Las Cruces and El Paso.....somehow, Jer managed to avoid all city driving.
We do get a few looks as we drive by and were asked once if we were heading to a race. When we explained our journey, the man was impressed and took a couple of flyers to follow us.
A good, safe first day....just what we needed.
