Always expect the unexpected

We woke up this morning fresh and exited , had a yummy breckie and were off on a wild (short cut).....the waiter gave us.All was well once the damage from our detour was cleaned,and once on the highway we were off at a cheesy native place.The reason why it was cheesy was that there was nothing to do with native americans but,we were able to get a pamphlet to a soda pop place with over 500 different flavors! Although it took an hour to get to I was busy knitting a frog green hat and,checking out route 66.


When we arrived there was a monstrous building with millions of colored soda bottles sitting inside the shop with clear walls and an awesome structure.

With lunch I enjoyed Juicy Pear Jolly Rancher soda (lime green).We filled up the monster RV and drove off into a dark cloud of smoke.



Realizing where we were headed was ,the direction of a wild fire, we pulled off at a Starbucks for coffee and smoothies. (I do not recommend the chocolate without the banana )Once we were inside and sitting down with our joy in a cup,it started to rain! I mean hard.



Running to keep our clothes dry, we found that the a.c. was leaking with H2o. Not only that ,but we had to use the emergency start. Just about an hour and a half out of OK city our R.V. 's motor started lurching forward and back ward.With my mothers misplaced phone and a need to powder our noses we pulled off,since we had used the emergency start we couldn't give the motor a break to cool down.We decided to run and hope for the best once we had gotten all loaded off we went down what seemed to be the entrance to the highway.Well, it was really the entrance to a small town but right before we hit the welcome sign the monster bailed on us.


Some how we got the helpless rolling rock to The Ramada Inn,but doing everything she could to stop the monster my godmom's help wasn't needed ,and as the awning met the roof of the monster it was love at first sight until the roof decided that he wasn't her type. And as we watched in horror of how the monster took her feelings out on the poor helpless awning, we found a new addition to my bed - a sunroof ! What a lovely addition to the spot where I always hit my head. (Not a problem any more!)








Although I wasn't to thrilled ,we are now in a hotel in the middle of nowhere knitting hats and repeating  the same old puzzles we have already done ,still we are hoping for the new R.V. to come tomorrow and save the day or so we hope.
