Day on the road

We got out of our campground around 8:15 and headed north.  Most of the trip went well,  BUT pulling into the Flying J for diesel we had to turn sharply to miss a car and ended up with the MH wheel on the curb.  No problem for the motorhome but for our tow car it would not end well.  So we disconnected the car, which started but just barely, and I drove it around to where we could reconnect.

Moving on a few miles:  I told Don it was .9 miles to our turn but he liked the closer turn better so we ended up going East rather than North.  Had to exit off the highway and make a turn which would have been fine but the car in front of us was having problems.  Finally we got on the highway and almost took the South exit, thankfully no one was beside us and we were able to readjust and go North at last.

We got to Osceola, Iowa, our stop for the night at a casino, about 4PM.  More diesel at Pilot/Flying J.   All is well that ends well!!!
