Roadtrippin'

Just a quick post to ask Ron and TnBlazerK5 if everything is squared away.I know Rob had to replace a water pump at Maggie Valley and then Ron lost an axle on the road.I do know both got home and hope everything is well with them.
From what I understand Ron was very lucky and skilled during the loss of his axle,no one was hit and his miles in a big rig helped him earn the skills to keep it from being a major disaster.
Just wanted every one to know they weathered the troubled times to make the show.Since those kind of things usually lead to the trip being memorable and actually fun,they must have had the time of their lives.Kudo's to Rob who took Ron some dinner to tide him over while he was waiting on his trailer and ride.

Re: Roadtrippin'

Was pretty scary. Ron was about 100 yards behind us and we HAD just gone through a tunnel with NO shoulder when the axle came out. Craig(Luv) was riding with me and my family and looked back and said Ron was in trouble. I know it took some time for him to get back home but I'm glad he made it back.
