On the Road Again 
So, the guys fixing the RV this morning ended up breaking the fuel line while trying to get the fuel pump out, so the relatively easy, quick job turned into a few hours... Oh well, it's back up and running and we are back on the road heading towards home. The goal is to get to an RV park just north of Des Moines tonight. That will leave us with less than 400 miles to go to get home. :)

Happy Birthday Joe! 
:)

We did a bunch more driving today. Had lunch at a neat cafe in Colorado Springs then drove through Denver toward Hygiene, CO. We are now staying at the house of one of our Horse Isle players/mods/quest writers. She has 3 beautiful horses, an ostrich, 2 dogs and I think 11 cats. A very fun and active home. :)

Gallup, New Mexico 
Well, we decided against the Grand Canyon. It would be too cold with probably no way to plug in, which means either no heat or using the furnace, which is incredibly inefficient. So, we decided on a return trip out west we'll go there. :)
We are now on our way towards Denver, CO to go meet a friend. Lots of driving though because we don't want to sit in the cold too long. :)

Windy Drive 
So, we stayed in that RV park for another night to get some work done and left this morning towards Flagstaff. It was really windy though. The head wind was insane. We just felt like we were wasting gas. So, we found a nice RV park with wi-fi internet and stopped there for the night. Probably heading out tomorrow. Hopefully it won't be as bad.
Here are some fun pics also. :)

Lucy was chasing a bug that was outside the screen door.

Lucy on the screen door going after the bug. Right after this photo, the door swung open. I tried to get a picture, but I went running for her so ended up with a pic of the bed instead..

A grapefruit tree right behind our RV. Look Papa! This is what your grapefruit tree could be someday if the thing wouldn't freeze when left outside...
