Wow, took us 4 days to finally get on the road for the first RV trip. A new 2011 Ford truck later to pull the RV and a side trip to Houston and College Station in the Suburban waiting for the new truck to get hitch attached.
Friday morning we were headed to Houston for Lin's 60th Birthday party, to be shared with his Uncle Lindle's 90th party. RV packed for a full week in the mountains after the party, Brandon following behind, his truck packed for his new condo on College Station. Did I mention he was moving to College Station early in the summer to get a job before college starts? He is excited about being on his own for the first time. The summer will be on his own, but a few weeks later, 3 more friends will descend on the condo as roommates. Rachel, Jason and Hannaruth in the back seat of the truck...4 miles out of San Antonio...the truck breaks down! This is the same truck that we just got out of the shop 2 days before for oil leaks. Now the picture I needed was the wrecker pulling the truck off, while we sit on I-10 in the RV! But at the time, that was the last thing we were thinking of, to document that!
The dealer was pleased though after Lin decided this was the last straw, a new truck was in the very near future (next day!)
