Adventure!

Adventure. Isn’t that what you get when things do not go as planned? 

If so, then we really have adventure now. While driving to Tucson the passenger side slide started to work itself out. A slide is the portion of the coach that extends to enlarge the living area. In this case, a sofa and the kitchen started to extend. Evidently there is a hydraulic leak that reduced the pressure in the system that keeps the slide retracted. It came out at an angle and wedged itself in place. We found a service center in Tucson online and were able to make an appointment to bring it in after limping to Tucson. They hope to be able to take a look at it Monday or Tuesday, but we have no idea how long this will take to resolve. Keep you fingers crossed. We are.

Patricia and Marc are wonderful hosts and have a gorgeous home in the foothills just outside Tucson. We enjoyed a great steak dinner at El Corral and returned to catch up on family news. Edouard has left for the airport to return to Georgetown University since his spring break ends Monday. Patricia and Daphne are just starting theirs and are looking forward to a week off from school. Unfortunately, spring break does not mean that school projects are not due upon her return, so Patricia will still be working on papers and art projects during the week.
