We have decided at the spur of the moment to made a Christmas trip up to MI see Randy and Devyn them down to GA to see Jody & Renato AND FAMILY!
Huntsville, AL visitor center. It's the home of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. Therefore the rocket.
It's a full 2 day trip, we took the truck for comfort and it looks like Patches is into comfort. How nice of Judy to make such a nice nest so see can see out the windows.
This is not a sight you see now days! We were on US12 in MI between Coldwater and Quincy and had to stop at a railroad crossing. We fist spotted the smoke and thought there was a fire behind a commercial building until the locomotive popped into sight.
It was the Christmas train! Judy checked and there was only one more trip which was sold out. We beat the train into Quincy where it uncoupled to pull the cars back to Coldwater.
I was very pleased with 18.3 mpg on the 977 mile trip to MI. This was the first long haul without the trailer. I kidded a friend about this compared to his new Ram until he showed me his 19 mpg on a trip back to Maine.
In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.
