NOT A GREAT DAY

It is getting so I can't even remember where we were yesterday, but we aren't there now anyway. Today we are in Provo, Utah and it was a terribly hard ride for all of us. The I-15 is so torn up and bumpy I just about jumped out of my fur each time I bounced in my crate. At one point there were 4 lanes of speeding cars going in and out of traffic, driving over 70 mph on either side and in between us. Who looks at the scenery when you are going so fast. 

We finally made it here to the "Lakeside" RV Park and our two reserved pull through sites were not exactly as advertised. Jim had a hard time turning into our very narrow spot, but Kathy T. had an even more scary experience. First, she almost couldn't make the turn into the road where the site was located, and it took both Jim and Kathe to guide her in without having an incident with a big rock. Next, when she tried to turn into her assigned site, she couldn't turn sharp enough and had to stop to un-hook the tow car.  That's when we discovered that the battery was dead on the tow. With some help from a neighboring camper and some muscle they charged the battery enough to get the car unhooked. One thing after another on this day.

When AAA arrived, they said that the battery checked out okay, but the air conditioner and the power windows didn't work. Next, Jim went with Kathy T to AutoZone where they were told the air conditioning control module was fried. Looks like the car can still be towed, chalk it up to just one more adventure on this trip.

This picture is of the creek that runs behind the RV Park, no one wanted to walk to the Lake with me to take a picture. I'm the only one in this group with any energy left tonight.
