We had hoped to avoid snow! Look at
what we left. Very pretty, but not fun to drive in.
Tom went to plug in the electrical
connection between the motor home and the Jeep which controls the
turn signals and brake lights on the Jeep. It was damaged, so called
Camping World. Yes, they had what we needed. Tried to pull in the
slide and it wouldn't roll in properly. The snow had turned into ice
on the slide topper. Went into the shop to get a ladder, not
thinking we had already tuned on the alarm system. Getting the ice
off and heard the alarm going off, ran to turn it off. Luckily I got
it turned off in a timely matter so the sheriff wasn't called in.
Then drove to the store. Wrong part. They didn't have what we
needed. Tried another RV store... closed on Saturdays. Tom decided
we would continue down the road, which means NO brake lights or turn
signal lights on the Jeep. Weather report said LaGrande was OK, no
snow. But, the pass before LaGrande had snow and it was getting
dark. , Chains recommended, we don't have chains for the motor home.
Remember too, no lights on the Jeep. A slow 17 mile an hour trip
and at least six plus cars/trucks seen that slid off the road!
Nerves on edge to say the least. A fun first day.
