1. The Good:
A. 3075. Number of miles we towed the 5W; about 1400 miles less than any previous summer
B. 7. Number of places I played pickleball - in 5 different states
C. Best RV park ever: Crown Villa in Bend, OR; spendy but worth it, going back next year
D. Awesome! The Sierra Nevada Mts as viewed from US 395. We stayed overnight near Lone Pine, CA and took a gander at Mt Whitney (climbed that sucker in 2009 but never viewed it from afar). That's it below, the peak on the far right, picture taken at 10X zoom from 15 miles away.
E. Reunion. Spent a couple evenings with Curt Elton, fraternity brother I hadn't seen in 50+ years. He and wife Naomi live near Boise.
F. Visited with LHC pickleball friends Dale and Bobbi, David and Elaine.
2. The Bad:
A. Landing gear failed because nut on drive shaft fell off; easy fix, new bolt and nut, $1.49
B. RV entry door lock internal screw came loose, deadbolt was engaged, couldn't gain entry. Trish entered via basement, popped up through basement trap door, removed lock from inside; easy fix
C. RV tire picked up a screw, ruined the tire. Tires were bought last summer at Discount Tire for $153 each, had 9300 miles on them. DT installed new in-kind tire on wheel, balanced for $19. They're the best!
3. The Ugly. Nazi bitch in RV park office, separate blog coming: NO EXCEPTIONS!
