Hi! Well, I don’t have Wi-Fi where I am right now so I’ll be doing this blog post from my Blackberry and I hope it comes out half way decent.

We are sitting in Grantville, Pennsylvania at the Hollywood Casino for the night. The Massachusetts highway did quite a job to our rig today but nothing serious thankfully.

First off, on I-495 one of our 5th wheel front legs fell free onto the highway at 65 MPH! No damage, it just skidded along the highway on the plastic disk attached to the bottom of the leg. We pulled over and worked the Zip-Tie magic to temporarily hold it up and in place until Florida where it will be properly repaired.

Then, by the time we hit I-90, the bike rack that is attached to the front of the trailer had bent – pretty heavy bikes along with all the bouncing along the awful highway beat up the bike rack, so we unloaded the bikes and put them inside the RV, detached the bike rack and put that in the bed of the pick up, until we get to Florida to fix and reinforce the bike bracket.

I got some pictures but can’t post pictures on my blog from my Blackberry.

So we made it to where we are now and we ate dinner inside the casino and I lost twenty bucks in the slot machines and now I’m posting a blog entry before calling it a night.

It’s been a long day…..But, other than that, we are all in a great mood and we are not turning around! We are Florida bound and I hope tomorrow is a nice easy day. I can hear Jake snoring next to me right now, he’s out cold.

Have a good night and I’ll be back tomorrow to blog more! If ya want to email me, I can be reached at dpjake11002@aol.com. My Blackberry let’s me get my email 24/7 and I love it! Nite Nite!
