After we ate breakfast. Scott and I went to the pool. He only stayed a couple minutes. I hit the hot tub again. After we checked out we stopped at Wally’s Auto Repair in Orr and they replaced our flat tire for us so we would have a spare. It was nice and cool so every once in a while I would close the windows for a break on my ears and eyes.

We stopped in Duluth at Fleet Farm for gas and headed out again. On our way down the biggest hill on Miller Trunk Highway, one of the stoplights turned red and Scott went to break only to realize our breaks on the camper were not working. Needless to say it was another trust God situation and we had to slow down a bit to be cautious. Our goal was to stop in Mingong to eat at A&W and check out RV’s at the Jayco place there. After lunch we hit the road again stopping for gas off and on. Traffic was steady through construction south of Madison.

We stopped at a pizza place, Toppers in Janesville to cool off and take a break. Once we were back on the road we could see a crazy storm coming from the west and the wind suddenly picked up. It was pretty scary the camper was really blowing. Then the rain started and visibility was not good. Scott was pretty sure we could out run it. It was a lot “longer” than it appeared in the sky. When we hit 94 East we ended up ahead of it and by the grace of God it never caught up to us. There was construction on 355 and it was down to one lane so that was stressful. We pulled into the farm around 11pm. We were greeted by a very happy Honey.
