It has been a long 15 hour trip home to Lake Mary, Fl from NO. The Beast
left our NO campground with Jeff and Sally Sirum leading the way. We left
about a half hour later to drop off the rental car in Slidell when we
get a call that the beast blew a pwr steering hose and was at the Mississippi
I-10 welcome center at exit 2. Didn't take Jeff too long to find a replacement
hose and we started out with Jeff in the lead, the beast in the middle and
us (ANNIE) in the drag keeping an eye on the beast. Things went well. A few
accidents (some bad) but we kept going about 60-61 mph without incident. We left
them when they hit the exit for Jeff's brother's home and an over night. Can't
drive the beast at night since it lost a head light in the accident.
I drove two five hour shifts and Ada did a five hour turn. So the drive wasn't
too bad. Home now at 1 AM and winding down for bed and a good night's sleep.
