The trip from h..........

If your brand new truck has a warning light on the dash. Do you dash? Or don't you dash? That is the question. Kent in his wrangler jean wisdom chooses to investigate, so the departure is a day late. Who knew that mother nature would raise havoc with our trucker dude and test his driving skills. We are not sure he will ever volunteer for this job again. His sidekicks Ali and Alyssa are not sure it is in the cards for them again either.

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow! Who ever wrote that song had a bad sense of humour. See the photos. You will not believe it. The highways were being closed behind us as we drove. Food choices were seriously lacking between the discontinued chicken chunks; giant pickles, and living potato salad. Baskin Robbins saves the day for our dining pleasure.

Two very very long days of driving and texting (hi to Telly) we made it only to find a very cold and wet Tucson. Was Trish kidding? She said it would be warm.

There were interesting items found. Just ask us about 'red' and zippers'. That is all we can disclose at this time.
