Never set your plans in stone

For they may not work out.

Today we were supposed to be in Van Nuys, California getting ready for Thanksgiving with Ed's family. Tina has been calling daily. (I think she's a little nervous about having Thanksgiving for her first time) Well, we did not make it to Van Nuys, instead we are sitting at a Walmart in Victorville, California.

Here is what happened...First let me ask you a question. Why would anyone want to try to park a big RV at night?

Last night, around 10:00 at night, we heard and saw the headlights of an RV coming into the park. The road between the RV's is very narrow most of the rigs have been backing up the road.

This guy did not do that, he tried to drive onto the road and then shift around to back into his spot. Well, as you might have guessed, he hit us. He broke our driver's side mirror. We got very little sleep last night wondering how we were going to get this fixed. We got very lucky.
There is a shop in Lake Havasu City called 3T's Rv Center. They happened to have the mirror we needed. So drove the car to pick it up and had it installed a little after noon.

We left Needles at 1:00 and arrived here in Victorville a little after 4:00. We will continue on to Van Nuys tomorrow morning. Should be there and set up by noon.
