Caravan to Big Bend Texas

So Uncle Peter, Kaye, Bruce and I met up in Tucson AZ. We spent a week there and then headed to Big Bend Texas. We planned on leaving Rincon West Resort at 9 am. Bruce was concerned about how our new cruiser would tow, so of course he was awake at 5am thinking that over. At around 7:30 am he hooked up the tow bar and then discovered the cable that hooked the lights up from the motorhome to the car was too short by about 14 inches. Oh well, we'll take a chance that no one would run into the back of us or a trooper would notice no lights. By 8am we were parked in front of Uncle Peter's lot ready to go. LOL!! They were surprised to see us an hour early, needless to say. At 9am we headed out and first stop was fuel for both of our rigs. Bruce had been scouting out the best price for the past week or so. We knew just where to go. We pulled in and discovered they don't take charge cards. Just cash or debit. No biggie. Now when you fill a big rig it is pretty pricey, and the girl said that the machine would take up to four hundred dollars. We couldn't get it past one sixty so had to fuel up and feed the stupid machine some more money. In the mean time Uncle Peter was pulling up and some guy was coming from the opposite direction heading for the same pump. Uncle Peter was waving at him to stop and the guy kept coming. When Uncle Peter slammed on the breaks cabinets opened and dishes flew out. Guess he lost a plate, a mug and things flew. He was pissed!! This was the most fun we've ever had fueling up!!
We then headed for Campers World. It was on the way and Uncle Peter had some gift cards burning a hole in his pocket. He found some stuff he needed. While we were shopping around Campers World Bruce thought to use an older cable that was longer and change the attachment on the end so we would have lights and at 11 am we were headed out of Tucson. The day or so before Kaye had found a rest area we could stop at, the first night out on the way to Big Bend. So here we are resting up for tomorrows leg of the journey.
It's suppose to be in the low nineties in Big Bend. Yikes!!
