Towing the new trailer with the GMC 2500 HD the 284 miles was a breeze! The diesel engine did not even break a sweat going up the mountains of Somerset. We had to make two stops: one for lunch (for me, Doreen, and the cat) and one for fuel.
This was the first long distance trip for the cat and wee didn't know what to expect. She was very vocal with her displeasure and after several miles Doreen suggested some classical music to soothe the savage breast. I figured why not, so I put symphony hall on the Sirius XM and the little fur ball calmed down! She was quiet until we hit the first tunnel on the turnpike when we lost the signal and she started to meow. She continued this for all four tunnels. We will put that station in the presets for future travels. I guess I will become a classical music aficionado until Asia is a seasoned traveler.
After getting set up at our new campground I got comfortable to watch the Steeler game Monday night. As you can imagine I was quite disappointed. It seems all the years of drafting so far down in the order have caught up to them because they have many holes in their offense and defence.
It is now Wednesday and I have talked to some old friends and family. Hopefully we can see some of the old gang before leaving next Monday. It is really getting colder at night and we must start heading south before we burn a small fortune in propane to heat the trailer at night. The day time has provided brilliant sunshine though, which is comfortable. Hopefully I can take advantage of it and get a quick nine holes in tomorrow with Mike Roach.
Until next time, happy RVing.

How's that savage breast doing today?
