Gearing Up

We took the RV for a little drive this last weekend.  Just to dust off the snow,  check all the gismos and gadgets before spring and summer really spring upon us.  About halfway through our travels a women yells at us that our spare tire is about to fall off.  Sure enough it was hanging by a bolt. Swinging around in circles without a care in the world.  Now we can't be sure if it was the long winter that loosened the bolts or it was a wondering child or two with a few tools and some time, but tightening up bolts on randomly mounted objects is going on the list of checks to make while your in the long dump station lines of summer.   Our 20th anniversary just passed and we are heading out for a rousing weekend of boondocking. Just me and my much better half, and if that turns out well we will bring the hooligans and see if we can survive a weekend without cell service, electronics, and other devices that compete, and often win, for our time.
On a side note another man flagged us down because he loved our car engine.  I am going to miss Montana a lot if we actually get out of here.
