So, I fixed our slide issue (knock wood) and here’s a link to the video on how I did it!!! We avoided a tornado and then met fantastic people in Defuniak Springs Florida. We had great times meeting Rose, Marie and George from Montreal, Dan and Jan (and their kids) from Colorado and our hosts Jeff and Leanora ! We found a great used book store Anita’s Half & Half. We heard about a wonderful Christmas Light display in Defuniak Springs Fl. We visited Fort Pickens which has a wide history of transformations. We camped at Henderson Beach State Park. Here’s an article about Acadia National Park testing a reservation system soon.
We finally left our stone and mortar home for our Southeast 2019 trip. We didn’t get out of our driveway before the problems started, Then our 1st night out … NO 110v in the rig !!!!! Ugh. This may be a trip ender. We stayed in Barnegat NJ, visited the “Christmas Vacation House in Mickleton NJ. Then off to Chesapeake MD. Afterwards we drove down to Assateague MD to see the wild ponies and went over to Ocean City MD.
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.
