Okay.. so I finally have a few pictures ready to show you guys from our trip!
Our little adventure began the day after Christmas. We woke up at around 5am or so.. thanks to the girls ![]()
We made a pot of coffee and waited till 7 so we could say goodbye to everyone.. which only ended being Mike K. who was returning from walking the dogs and Mike D.
One thing I would like to mention is that there should be “special navigation” for those who are traveling in an RV or who are pulling stuff.
Our lovely navigation took us though a very scenic drive (10 hwy, 71, 89). I would say that this route is definitely not intended to be driven in a 37ft RV pulling a Honda pilot! Thankfully for us, aside from Sam’s great driving, we took this route basically once it was beyond dark with hardly any other drivers on the road!!!!! Once we hit Jerome patrons from restaurants stepped outside and shook there heads at us. What makes this route suck? Well.. it’s two lanes.. with a drop off on one side while switch-backing onto itself.
By the time we reached cottonwood, are breaks had boiled over and became aired.. which basically means they were super soft to non-existent. So we just pulled over on the side of the road and went to sleep. While getting ready for bed we discovered that the heater went out.. yup, Arizona in the winter is pretty cold!!! Luckily we had stock pile of blankets that Twink gave us!!
In the morning.. Sam tried to determine the damage to our braking system only to realize that the Honda’s battery was dead. Luckily an early morning citizen on his way to church stopped and gave us a jump. With a few directions we rolled in Dead Horse Ranch State Park.
It rained for a few days.. so we spent some quality time just hanging out and on the nice days.. we went into Sedona. It was a wonderful relaxing trip, with several visits to Wal-Mart and Home Depot!
Here are a few photos..
