Getting home

First thing, off to see Jeff, our Ford dealer service guy at 8:20 am to encourage him to start working on the RV --quickly. He said they would be working on it "soon." At 10:00, we did a little happy dance and cheers went up from the crowd as they moved our rolling home into a bay!
Jeff came to us with the news that we needed new calipers. The parts were a half hour away... So, some quick mental calculation, a couple of more hours of work and an hour to retrieve various pieces and parts and we figured we would be on the road again around two-ish, we hoped.
At right about 2:00, Jeff said they would be ready to take it for a test drive! The verdict is it rides nicely, no pulling, so it seems we are good to go. At 2:20, the boat is hooked up and we are on the road again. So we get a few miles down the road and , it's fine. Our next stop is to be picking up our dogs in Orlando but that will likely take until midnight or 1 am which won't work so we decided to shoot for st. Mary's GA. It is near the FL/GA line and there is a nice little rv campground there that we stayed at before.
We ended up arriving there just a it was getting dark so the timing was good for some dinner and the much anticipated beer.
Should be under four hours to get to the dogs in the am. Looking forward to seeing them!!
