Relax RV Podcast – episode 12 Ogallala. The Roca NE. Got stuck in the mud.

Went to Ogallala. The Roca NE. Got stuck in the mud. 3 hours. No tow companies would help. But Matt pulled us out with his Hemi SUV. Cracker Barrel in Lincoln NE. Flat tire. Firestone was no help. Walmart fixed it for $15. Ate at Carlos Kelley’s in Lincoln Nebraska and met Drake a EDM musician and a great guy. Then to Ohio and hid from a Tornado. Then saw a play in Genesio Illinois. We did fall in love with Goshen Indiana and Shipshewanna Indiana for their amish grocery stores.

Then finally to Thor in Wakarusa, Indiana. We needed the bcc fixed. it cost us $750. Good Sam Extended Service plan paid $400. This plan was costing us $200/month. We thought we had a $500 deductible but that was a joke!! Our 2 repairs cost $2,350.00. Out of that we paid $1,500.00 and Good Sam paid out $800. And we had the plan for many months waiting for our appointment at Thor, so we paid $2,400.00 for the insurance. So we canceled our Good Sam Extended Service plan.

Relax RV Podcast – episode 10 – a ghost town, Jackson MT and Yellowstone

We headed south-west and stayed in Bannack State Park, where we were pleasantly surprised. It’s a great place for kids of all ages. Jackson (NOT Jackson Hole) is a small, warm, welcoming western town, here’s a link to Jackson.

Then we stopped at a RV shop and bought a new topper for the rig. Eric Stark is the owner and he has a great podcast that focuses on repairs. We called Dee and Kevin – see episode 8 – and had it shipped to their house (for free), as we planned to stay with them soon.

We stopped and saw Antelope and Bison at the National Bison Range.

Then off to Yellowstone N.P.  Wow wow wow. Geysers !!!!!!!!!  Hot springs !!! Elk and Bison!!!!  Many hikes and a SWIM in the Boiling River !!!!
