Hey all of you migrating Mutants -- many of you will be unable to post about your adventures north of the border. Since a bunch of us are Rainbow riding vicariously thru you we expect you to compose daily updates. You can save them to be posted here once you return to the world of digital connectivity.

The boredom is driving me nuts, or slightly more so than normal

Most adventure in a few days. Took the coach in for rear tire balancing and genny oil change today. About 3 weeks til SIL returns and we can hit the road again. Not looking forward to the Thor warranty work, but the OBX afterwards is greatly anticipated

Really am jealous of those lucky rainbow riders far to the north where the sun is not so hot. Congrats guys.

Jake

It looked like a piece of the guardrail bent outwards.

Well, it's your RV, I do wish you luck in getting through that mess in one piece, safe travels! Personally I would stay further north than I-95 so be forewarned. The cost in tolls alone will easily exceed the additional fuel to bypass all that.

I would definitely enjoy that if you can work on a couple of Bronco's tickets.

Actually it would be fun to just hang out with you and you wonderful, adorable beautiful wife.

Hi Annie.

Hi Annie.
Thanks Dennis. We would love to hang with youse two too... lol. Miss Annies niece Amber lives in Denver so she may be able to do that leg work for us. Although, I'm not sure I could get from the parking lot to our seats at Mile High... but I'd give it a go. I've always found the beer is colder, cheaper and no line at the bathroom when viewing from home or a local bar. Our seats in Tucson for the Super Bowl were great. I liked that little bar / restaurant.

I suppose you will be off and running to Maine Event soon. So wish we were going too. I'm thinking we will make small steps when we roll. I think we will go 3 hours north to Maddison WI for a few days - then 2 hours over to visit our friends in Onalaska WI. From there we will stretch our drive time to 4 hours and visit our friends in Amana. From there - short hops to Colorado and on to AZ over the course of several months. It's been a rough go and I'm past ready to be back on the road.
I bet you are READY to hit the road ASAP

Yep. But so sad that we won't be with all the mutants in Maine. I know it is gong to be a 100% fantastic GC.

Tim,

You and Sena have the same exquisite taste in fine dining. She gets excited whenever we pass Golden Arches and she will only eat only French fries made under those arches. She dined on some just hours ago.
