WHAT I LEARNED ON THE ROAD THIS WEEK!

1. Manuals are written for a reason and not just to annoy me!!
2. There is always a Walmart no matter how far out in the sticks you are.
3. Do something often enough and you get good at it (I can now hook up and unhook the trailer all by myself)
4. No matter what you need done there is always someone to help you.
5. Never count the Vancouver Canucks out!
6. Taking deep breaths can calm you down even if you are running out of gas and have a tire that really needs air.
7. Americans are the nicest group of people that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.
8. Do not try to read the manual while driving!
9. Organization is your friend especially in a 25' trailer.
10. When traveling alone, it is nice to have a big stuffed dog to talk to when no one is around.
11. The best time of the day is 6am as long as you have coffee.
12. Put manuals where you can find them when you finally give up and decide to read them.
13. I am so very fortunate to live this life!
