A day from hell

I took a satellite photo of the road @Neal considers a good rv road.

Campgrounds on the side of the interstate are now my favorite. I will cherish road noise as the new calm!

The sound of big truck tires and jake brakes are like music to my ears.?
No, I mean really. I always wanted to drive one of those things. I should test drive a a 45’ diesel pusher, just for the experience of driving one.

There are trucks on that road. What is the problem? ?

Looks like @Neal took out most of the trees on his way out!

Now, THAT is in the running for "The Road to Hell! Notice the width of the shoulders and the lack of guardrails? Yikes!

Let's just call it camouflage, the new look.

In some places there were low limbs but mostly not. It's just the noise of a class A motorhome aka rolling earthquake. One limb earlier in the drive was pointing straight down so I thought it was a limb was dangling. Nope, thought I cracked my windshield with it. What a day...

And yet you soldiered on. Hats off to you sir! I just watched again and that’s some nap of the earth flying.

I just keep thinking to myself, what if there had been a 25’ tall 15-ton bridge on that road. You think it was challenging getting down that road? Try doing it in reverse! At least that dangling limb would true up the back side as well though. Gotta always look on the bright side.

Reverse: been there and done that nightmare. My first big trip in 2017 with passport America Rockies tour. Sadly again input error. Wrong address. I went down a road that turned into a dirt road. Narrow of course and barely going under overhead lines. New to driving a Class A and had no choice than backing up a 1/4 mile. Knocking on a door asking if I could use their driveway to turn around but I couldn’t maneuver into it. A little further was an intersection. It was miserable. That 34 day adventure had multiple newbie experiences which were not very enjoyable.
