A Tale of Woe

After leaving Florida, I headed to Kentucky to visit my aunt.  In Atlanta during rush hour traffic, it sounded like I had a blow out.  I managed to limp to the off ramp and saw that the tire was up but had come apart.  I contacted Good Sam Roadside Assistance and the tow driver and I got the RV to a side street so he could put on the new tire.

The damage to the rig consist of the tray under the sewer compartment being  bent badly.  I think the hose in the compartment kept the sewer from being damaged .

When I got to Kentucky, my cousin bent out the tray enough for me to get a sewer hose

in the compartment. The sewer hose that was there was terribly destroyed.  I had just brought

A tire monitorng system for the RV but had it sent to my son-in-law to put on when I got to Maryland.

I saw my aunt and took care of some business then headed to Maryland.  I decided not to stop and drive closer to my daughter's.  I stopped for gas in Maryland and felt tired but can not use that as an accuse.  I always check my backup camera to make sure the car clears the gas tank barriers.  This time I guess I did not look.  You can not feel the car back there so I drove off. When I got so tired I felt that I could not drive anymore, I got off the interstate.  As I was turning a corner, I saw the drivers side of my car and freaked.  

The car is all repaired but I learned a lesson to not drive when I am tired.

My son-in-law was putting on the tire monitors when he saw the front tires and told me I needed new front tires and an alignment.  I took the RV in for that but was told I needed new front shocks as well.  I had also damaged the cable that connects the lights of RV to car.

I had a costly trip back from Florida to Maryland
