US tour - southern states, 2013

I tested out DC mode last night and it turns out it is working - while sitting still.  So AC and DC are ok in-camp.  DC doesn't keep it cold on the road, and gas doesn't work at all at this point even though it has a good flame.  Won't have a chance to hit Camping World before we leave, we are having breakfast with my uncle at 8 and then on the road for about 10 hours to OK.

We went to the Petroglyphs and Pueblo Indian Museum today.  We are fortunate that the temps are so far below normal, it has made the whole trip the last few days very comfortable.  Off to bed soon.

We've been getting to camp late the last few nights plus I'm starting to drag a bit, so I've been less active online...

Odd about the blog, we've received comments from others.  We were at Diamond Caverns RV park last night.  Got up late today and did the New Entrance tour of the cave 12:30-2:30, then walked down and into the Natural Entrance just to show the kids what it looks like.  You can actually walk in a few hundred feet before you hit the security barrier.  We did see the Vette Museum as we passed by, no time to take it in this trip (along with many other things).  We are now at Natural Tunnel State Park and will be here all day tomorrow, we scheduled it in as a bit of a R & R stop.  Next and final stop is my wife's cousin's place in WV.  That will also be a bit relaxed but there are plans to tour the big radio telescope facility in the radio-free zone and take in a steam train ride near there.

I can only guess the struggle was due to very high grades - I think the 2 spots I had a problem with were over 10% - and I have been running the tranny rather warm due to the generator box up front (a problem I'm going to fix before I use the box again).  

We did tour Green Bank, my wife hasn't caught up on the blog posts due to being in the "national radio-free zone" around it.

Back home safe around 5 today, time to get to bed!
