What a day this has been!!!! We were just west of Nashville on Route 40 when there was a POW!!!! - yup we blew a tire on the trailer, driver's side. So considering we took out RV AAA Road side service, we called them to change the tire. A little of a wait, but it was good to have them deal with changing the tire. So back on the road about 1-1/2 hours later. We need to get a new tire tomorrow.

Then we arrived a little south of Memphis, TN about 5:00 p.m. (We are in central time zone now). Got trailer all set up everything was fine. It was about 1/2 hour or so and the furnace shut off and some of the lights dimmed down. (We still need a furnace down here, about 38 degrees at 8:00 p.m.) Bob Checked to see if any damage was done from the blow out. There is some, but not to cause the 12 volt power trouble. So off to Auto Zone (7:00 p.m.)about 20 miles away to get a new battery. Good news finally --the battery took care of the problem. We are getting HEAT.

We will be camped here for about four days. We have driven in this area, thru Kentucky and Tennessee, which is normally so pretty. Well in the winter it isn't pretty with brown grass.

That's all for tonight.
