Well we left at 8:15 having problems with opening the shed door, then electrical problems with the motor home (no headlights, or rear tv-back-up monitor).
No problems at the border in fact they didn’t even check us at all….there was 3 motor home/fifth wheels in front being checked. Car/vans where checked inside-out even the spare tires were checked for hidden items. “Have a safe trip” was all the custom officers said. I-75 was tricky to get onto in Detroit but we made it, a little traffic but easy going.
Our gas adventure in Dayton, Ohio…first pulling up to the pumps with our rig is tricky then the attendant won’t give you gas unless you”please leave your visa card inside and then you can get gas”. We did okay…this stop was like a shopping heaven plus a Tim Hortons…WOW but we didn’t stay around long enough.
In Cincinnati we thought the motor home was on fire because all we could smell was an electrical stink…Rod panicked turned off all lights, fans, heat…made me find out where it was coming from...OUTSIDE lol Slow moving going through here…rain, lightning and busy rush hour.
At 5:50 pm we arrived at Camp Walmart in Berea, Kentucky (thank god for Kyle’s book)…that book has come in so handy much better than the streets and trips on the computer for I-75.
Well we shopped and got all our needs in Walmart (shoes, supper, Transformer DVD so we could watch it on the computer tonight). That night it poured but the good side was that everything is all clean…like going through a power-wash (now Rod doesn’t have to clean the motor home...which was his plan).
