Do I look scared? I’m terrified, but I’ve been doing more driving every day and I’m slowly getting more comfortable with this beast. It’s pretty nerve wracking on the busy interstate with a bazillion big rigs flying by on both sides! I go slower than pretty much everyone because that’s what I’m comfortable with. I don’t care if they get mad. They can go around and, It’s for their safety too, right?? It’s good I’m learning this new skill but the downside is, I can’t take any pics when I’m at the helm :-/.

We ended up staying the night in a Walmart parking lot in Park City, Utah. It wasn’t bad except that someone who was also boondocking near us had their engine or generator running all night long, I’m sure it was to keep warm. Understandable, but oh so annoying! 

Next morning, after purchasing an extendable scrubber/squeegee to scrub the multitude of bugs off the windshield, Larry insisted that I drive us out of the parking lot. GULP! It wasn’t completely uneventful (enuf said) but we made it out to the road in one piece, or should I say two since we’re hauling my car? Did I mention that we’re around 60 feet long and take up 8 spaces in a parking lot?
