5/2/14 - Got up this morning at 6:30am because we were parked very close to a railroad and I heard trains off and on all night but did get some sleep. I woke up this morning and it was 48 degrees so put my summer clothes away and dug out my winter clothes. The high today while traveling was only 75 degrees so I have everything all closed up to try and keep the heat since I don't want to run the generator and furnace all night.
Traveling went much better today and I drove almost 400 miles. As of this writing, I am sitting in a Walmart parking lot with at least 4 others right now but it is a little early so could be more. I left Gallup, New Mexico at around 7:30am but had a beeping noise I could not get rid of so drove 4 miles back to where I knew there was a mechanic but he poked around and basically knew nothing so the beeping quit when I had it in drive so left a message for my nephew and started out. When I stopped at a truck stop, Jeremy and I chatted and I learned that I did not have it all the way in neutral but enough that it would start because it does not start in a gear. I was so relieved. I am now in Trinidad, Colorado and have only 87 miles to stop off for three days to visit with friends in Pueblo and then off to Denver for 8-9 days.
