A couple weeks ago Dennis and I took the Motor Home and Honda to Arizona to miss the bad and cold weather of January. We had quite a trip starting before we left CDA when I washed my cell phone. After I dried it out it seemed to work just fine.
We left CDA on Tuesday am. We were pleased to get to Idaho Falls, Id. After connecting the motorhome to the asserories I started making the bed and there were no pillow cases plus there was a big wet spot on the bed. (We still don't know where the water came from.)We survied the night with just a couple monior problems.
Wednesday as we were driving south of Nephi Utah we came to a 6000 ft pass with a full snow storm. Dennis did well; but it is nerve racking driving the motorhome and pulling the Honda as you see semi trucks in the ditch.
We arrived in Cedar Falls Utah and checked in. Dennis was hooking up the assesoried and I was warming the car to out to eat. When Dennis didn't come out of the motorhome I went inside to find him flooded in water in the bathroom. The pressure was to much and the fawset in the sink blew. Fortunately we had lots of towels and Dennis turned off the water and he will fix it when we return for our winter break.
Thursday we deceided tonight we would get a hotel since we didn't have water in the motorhome. Arriving in LasVegas we disconnected the car and had the motorhome and car washed from the snow slush etc. I had the Honda and Dennis the motorhome I said I'll met you at Hoover Dam. I made it to the dam before Dennis and after waiting about 1 hour I thought I had missed him and crossed the dam. Dennis was not on the east side of the dam. Well for the next couple hours we kept missing each other and my cell phone was in the motorhome. Dennis managed to run into a post at a parking gaurage so since it was a National Park this took him awhile while they filled out papers. When I didn't have my cell phone the only number I knew was my home phone.
When I went into a casino that had a computer for public use and e-mailed Tim. Tim told me where Dennis was and that Dennis had deceided to drive to Kingman, Az. Tim gave me his phone number and I called him collect. I told him I tought it was better we stay apart; so I stayed in LasVegas and Dennis in Kingmas. He arrived in Phoenix about 11 am and I arrived about 1. We talked and are still talking. I kept saying to myself "One day this will be funny"
So the motorhome and car are in Phoenix waiting for are arrival Christmas Day.

It may come as a suprise but I wish no one bad times. Looks as if your trip was filled with my luck. As the song on Hee Haa goses "If it wernt for bad luck I'd have no luck at all. Rosie said to say she was sorry but had a very good laught when she read your blog. When I leave the house. Motel room or get back in the truck from fueling it, I hit my pockets to check if I have my cell phone and billfold. I also look to make sure my credit card is in it. Hope you are starting to see the humor in your trip

You are a good woman that you were only two hours behind him. I might have had to wait even longer. I thought these situations got easier the longer you are married?
