"Almost" no more.

[amweath]

Got home to Riverside Ca. last night after 2200 miles from Alabama.
The only incident was a support rod for the big awning came loose
somewhere west of Pecos. The hand cranking nut that locks the awning
to the side was gone(it was there when I left). It made so much
noise that I thought I had a blowout. Because of a punishing wind, I
was reluctant to climb on top to resecure. Luckily I had stopped at a
Walmart and piked up some basic tools,so, standing on the foot step
hanging by one hand in a 40 mph wind I has able to secure the awning
with a length of coat hanger and a pair pliers. Checked the front
securing nut and it was only finger tight.

On another note, as I was westbound,east of Abilene, I past an
eastbound dark blue and silver PT something.

The coach drove nice, a tick over 6 mpg and used 2 qts. of oil. I'm
a happy man. I do have lots of questions. I had alwas expected to
get an FC 35 so I didn't pay real close attention to the posts on
PTs.
