Shel: In an effort to reduce sitting in traffic we went up the thruway to route 84, much nicer than sitting in traffic on the Tappanzee, oops Mario Cumo, bridge. We towed the trailer just over 3000 miles. Total miles for the trip was 4900+
Summary: Had a bunch of issues on this trip but would do it all over again. Great spending time at Disney with kids and grandkids.
- Before we left home, one of the landing gear pins came off in my hand. Had to fix that.
- Left drivers window open in PA and it rained, got the drivers seat soaked
- High beam light switch failed in truck and had only low beams.
- The monitor on my rear view camera failed. I replaced one of the components but it didn't fix it.
- I bought a wireless backup camera that didn't work so good.
- The truck radio Bluetooth failed and I had to replace the radio.
- Had a tire blow up in Asheville NC. Damaged the trailer and we had to buy 4 tires.
- Gently hit a post in a parking lot, bent the bike carrier and bike rear wheel.
- Messed up planning and had an extra day to plan for.
- Pulled down a low wire in a campground which damaged the roof and A/C gasket.
- Planned to meet Susan in Frederickburg VA but she lives in Frederick MD. Had to change campgrounds last minute.
- Access to new campground delayed by train.

We didn't have anyone to water our plants so we took them on the trip. Kept them in the shower so they had sun light and water
|

When we got home, we couldn't find the driveway. Covered in leaves and pine needles
|

The elapsed time must have overflowed as we drove much more than 8 hours.
