We began our Summer racing adventure late Thursday afternoon. Wichita Raceway Park was 315 miles away so we were going half way on Thursday. Half way the first trailer tire blew. I replaced 2 tires Friday morning in Stephensville, TX. and that afternoon another tire blew so we replaced the other 2 in Jacksboro, TX. Setting up at the race track the slide awning ripped the brackets off the slide. Saturday after 2 time trials it was time to race. When I left the starting line the rear ujoint broke and hurt the drive shaft. Now I need to find a driveshaft shop to fix it and a part to fix the slide awning and the city RV park we are at the 50 amp plug didn't work so the city is sending out an electrician. It was in the mid 90's yesterday too. We'll be here 3 nights then on toward Denver. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

We took the race car out Friday night and Saturday. It went pretty well for the first outing in 4 years,so the plan to take the car with us this summer is still on. Next projects is new tires for the motorcycle along the new house stuff before we leave in a couple of weeks. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Congratualtions!!! It sounds very nice. Jeff

I may be late with this then. A few suggestions. http://www.msn.com/en-us/money/realestate/inside-the-million-dollar-motor-homes/ss-BBvElCL?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=iehp#image=9 Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Thanks Sue. We hope to be in the house in a year. No RV spots though but Potter's Creek COE is close by. Jeff

A visit to the vets office about 2 weeks ago we found out that our Cali had a broken tooth again. She got it pulled last Friday and she also had a broken tooth last year. Levi the cat got a rabies shot and he's doing great for a 17 year old cat. Doesn't look a day over 9. LOL. Here is some real news. We've decided to have a house built on our land near Canyon Lake, Texas. They are going to slow roll the process early so we can still travel this summer and be back in the fall to watch it being built. Probably won't make it to Q next year. https://rvtravelswithjeffandtina.blogspot.com/p/our-texas-home.html Been busy getting things together for this summer. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Joe - Anymore we fill the tank and run off the pump all the time. Much better pressure. Made a big move today maybe 6 miles. We need to stay in the area for another month for doctor appointments. Got my race car running yesterday, boy it sounds good. It's been 4 years since I've heard it run. Lots of other things to do to get ready for the summer. One things is new tires for the motorcycle and I've bought batteries for the race car, generator, motorcycle and the break away for the trailer. Last April my enclosed car trailer and motorcycle trailer both got beat up by hail. Waiting for the insurance adjuster to come look at both of them. Will get them fixed later don't have time before we need to get on the road again. Lovely. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Thanks Joe. I'm trying to shake the curse. Haven't had rain for a week. LOL! Travel safe everyone. Jeff

It was good to spend some time with you and Delcie at Escapade. You guys take care and get stronger. Enjoy your summer. Travel safe everyone. Tina and Jeff

The plan for this summer is the motorhome will tow the race car trailer and Tina will follow in the truck. The Jeep gets to rest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yLYWtVucGU Travel safe everyone Jeff

Toni - Jeri is spot on. Jeep's are easy to set up and tow but if you aren't going to do much off road driving a small car might be best. Make sure what ever you decide is towable. We just bought a 2007 Ford F-250 King Ranch crewcab diesel pickup yesterday. It has just less then 68k miles on it. We kept the old Jeep. LOL. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Steve - How was it last night? We had t-storms in the middle of the night last night too. You guys might want to change your visit there to the fall instead of spring. Jeff

Heading to the COE park tomorrow. How long you in the area? Jeff

Very windy drive today from Fort Stockton, Tx. to Kerrville, Tx. 250 miles of south/ southeast winds. My mileage went in the tank. Saw our first Bluebonnets just east of Ozona. Here for a few days then move to Canyon Lake area just north of San Antonio. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Use your Elk's membership. Many nice Elk's lodges in the west. Along the coast and inland as well. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

Blame me for rain but don't blame me for other weather like tornado's, hurricanes, blizzards, etc. Joe wet, gray, drizzle, and rain has been our experience with the Oregon coast during our 2 visits there. Not sure we ever saw the sun shine while we were on the coast. Stay dry. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

LOL!!! We thought the curse has gone. Haven't seen any rain since last Thursday in Tucson.

It's time to move on toward Texas today. It's been great to see everyone again in Arizona. We recently spent time with Jeri and Terry also Freddy and Delcie at Escapade in Tucson. Yesterday alone we had brunch at Tom and Dianne's with Roger and Lynn, Also got a tour of Dave and Nancy's new house just down the street. It's time to get to Texas to get ready for this summer's adventures. Travel safe everyone. Tina and Jeff

Sorry to hear Linda. Thoughts and Prayers for you and your family. Tina and Jeff

Thanks, Dave. I thought before before the update there were around 350 pages or so on this thread. I'm not going to go back to the beginning and reread them all to see if there are any gaps. LOL. Jeff

It seems that we've lost 70 some pages on this new forum and some have new names too. Getting hot in Arizona, near 90 for next several days. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

No rain out today. Upper 70's and a bit breezy. A nice day to sit in the sun at a baseball game. The drive home was long - Phoenix traffic is too much. Jeff

Sorry Joe. I'm trying to shake the rain curse. I didn't know I could reach that far. Looks like good weather in the Phoenix area for a while. Sunny and 80's soon. Going to a baseball game today. Travel safe everyone. Jeff

It was a diet beer. LOL! Jeff

Sorry to hear about your Dad, Toni. Y'all are in our thoughts and prayers. Tina and Jeff
