"Live" from Belle Rose LODRS 2014

[Larry Hill]

Hey Jeff, I'm with you! No way I would willingly get into that water!!

Well, we finally left Jimmy's house at 9 last night after the new transmission was finally installed. Then got up to that long bridge on I-55 and had a blow out on the motorhome! We limped along about another 10-15 miles to where we were finally off the bridge and stopped to check it out. Curb side front outside tandem was the culprit! Limped along again about 10 miles to Hammond and got it changed at the Petro. Just so glad we had a spare mounted tire with us! $16.09 later and another hour and we were on our way again. We drove another hour and went thru 2 truck stops and 1 rest area and finally found a spot to park. By that time it was 1:15. Had the alarm set for 5:15 so we could get up and home for our granddaughter's 7th birthday party this afternoon at 1. We are about 120 miles south of Memphis now. So without any further interruptions, we should make it there. Maybe not on time, but before the party is over!

So we have had a very exciting week! Just wish more of the excitement was from the good things like racing and fishing and not the bad ones!
