Flagstaff, Arizona

We are now in Flagstaff, unfortunately we didn't make it to the Grand Canyon.  About 20 miles east of Flagstaff the radiator started leaking enough so we called a Ford Dealer and they directed us to a campground, we dropped off the rv and got to the dealership.  They just called and said we needed a new radiator and fan belt and won't be ready until late tomorrow.  We will need to pay both arms and legs (since we won't be having a first born to give them).  We only had 3 nights at the Grand Canyon so we cancelled that part of the trip.

Yikes the guy just called again and told us the spring that keeps tension on the belt broke and will cost us two more arms and legs!  The truck is almost to 100,000 miles so these things happen but it's just been two repair months of hell!

I will sign off now because I think I need to give CPR to Ted or at least a big glass of wine to calm him down!

Guess we still have our health (knock on wood)..."Ain't Life Grand!"
