Departing May 21, 2009!
Four more days of work, twelve more days until we leave!
Going, going, going, going fishing!
On Friday, May 8, the truck was parked as pictured with the back tailgate down. While pulling the truck out from underneath the trailer, Linda needed to close the tailgate for travel. But instead of putting the truck in park to jump out to close the tailgate, it was in reverse. Needless to say, the truck went backwards on its own. The tailgate went through the basement and knocked the trailer off its holding stands and smashed onto the two sides of the bed of the pick up truck.
The damage was extensive but Doug put it all back together again. We'll have it all rebuilt when we get back. Except for the tailgate. We had to buy another one, this time a 5th-wheel tailgate.
We're still going.
Yikes!!!

I'm glad you're not discouraged. Doug will have something to look forward to when he gets home.
