Another different trip for us, travelling with friends Curt & Jo-Anne, them with their 25 ft Airstream trailer and us with our little Aliner, towed by almost identical-looking Chevy Tahoes. They took their Black Labs Dux and Jocur, and we had our Yellow Lab with us.
We drove about 10,365 km in all, heading over to New Mexico this time, instead of further down in Texas, although we did spend several enjoyable days in Fredericksburg on the way to NM.
The 2 weeks leading up to the trip were busy, with dental appointments (because I lost part of a tooth and needed repair), rabies shots etc for our Lab, new eyeglass lenses for me, one new oxygen sensor for the car, windshield replacement. All worthwhile, and it turned out to be a good idea we didn’t try to leave in mid-Feb as we initially planned, as some of these problems would have happened on the trip instead of before, and been harder to get fixed.
Today (Feb 23) we drove to Waterloo, will stay at C&J’s tonight. No pre-dawn snow patrol like last year! Getting to Waterloo about 2:30, we picked up the newest replacement lenses for my glasses (the first set were made wrong), and had a visit with Heather. Then we dined out at a Vietnamese restaurant in Waterloo, as C&J were busy until evening.
