We didn't like the Awning anyway

Well before we get to that you have to see what we have been up to for the last while.  We are current at Great Falls MT and have met up with our friend Joan and her crew. Tomorrow we travel to Lethbridge AB,

Ok the history.
After we left Ajo we went to Parker AZ and had a few relaxing few days and of course went to Lake Havasu City to see the London Bridge, We took a strand along the shore line enjoyed the replica of various Light Houses. We toured the welcom center/museum and left for a lunch and return to the Blue Water RV CG,

Next it was off to Las Vegas at the Roadrunner CG and meet up with our full-time friends Dan and Bev. We had a very nice visit and evening dinner. The next day we were off to Hoover Dam and a driving tour along the lake and a ride and some hiking around Valle of Fire State Park. We had a little side trip to "Lost City" . This a nice museum and we are glad we took the time to see it.

Most of our travel from Voyager has been on secondary roads. And I loved it. So with that said we left Vegas and drove a few miles on I15 and turned off to US93, the Great Basin, one of the greatest ride. Good road, low traffic, like damn near none. We stopped for the night at Young's CG in Caliente NV. We didn't disconnect the jeep and did not visit any of the sites in the area.

Another long lonely drive to Baker NV for a couple of nights at Border CG, a wide spot at the NV-UT border. We were here to see the Great Basin NP. It can be dark here and this is the place so see the night sky, We took a drive to Ely NV to see the NV Northern Railroad Museum. This is worth the drive and price of the admission.

From there we were off to Arco ID to visit the Craters of the Moon NM. Not near nowhere but you can see nowhere from here.  We enjoyed the volcanic fields.

No there is where the awning comes into the picture. So I was pulling into the site, the only near any close, and I didn't LOOK UP or wait for Suzette to wait to guide me in So the 8" branch that caught the awning roller. Stop. It is Sunday, no one to call. Can't move front of back. Lick our wounds, get the bed slides out have dinner and sleep.  The next day a fellow came to help. They put a chain and pulled on the limb and some strain to give some clearance, turn the coach wheels, pull forward, full lock the other way, back out.  Nothing left to other do and remove the awning roller and support the arms so we could travel.  We didn't like the awning anyhow because it was on the roof above the slide which is a 30" slide so id didn't shade much as the sun set and didn't come over to give much cover.

What are we going to change. Beats to us but we are going to Alaska anyway. As Scarlett said " I can't think about that right now. If I do, I'll go crazy. I'll think about that tomorrow."

We had an overnight in Butte MT and then on I15 to Dick's RV in Great Falls MT.  We were going to Lethbridge AB but it is the long weekend of Victoria Day and only the CG's we could find only offered a 3 day stay. So we are hanging out here another day with the cold and rain.
