Dan & Annie's
Summer Adventure 2006

July 7, 2006:

In the last 10 years we have traveled well over 100,000 miles in a motorhome and never had a flat tire.

This morning we had our first blowout. Fortunately it was a rear tire, and since there are dual wheels

back there we were able to limp it to the nearest exit where we found a repair shop who could install the spare.

Back on the road again, and exactly 40 miles later, POW, another blowout! This time on the other side,

but what the heck? Well we got lucky again, especially since we had no spare this time, and were able

to limp into a Goodyear tire store about three miles away for two new tires.

This is Dan repairing the mud flap that got destroyed by the first blowout:

Later that afternoon we crossed into Wyoming and made it over to Devil’s Tower. Really cool. We hiked

all the way around the tower, and stayed overnight in the campground right at the base. Here they play

the movie “Close Encounters” every night at 9pm.

Here is the view as we approached from the east:

All for now,
