The Ultimate Road Trip, Part 2

So, not at all sure we were up to doing this again, we boarded Southwest flight 4473 and headed to Phoenix to rescue the van from its storage unit and begin part two of our quest to see as much as possible of the western USA. Doug picked us up from the airport and we settled back into his guest house for a couple of days. I can’t minimize how important Doug has been to the success of our trip, offering room and board, transportation and travel advice that we could not possibly have gotten elsewhere. Ever grateful, Doug.

Of course the battery was dead when we got into the van but Roadtrek roadside assistance came through and sent us Andy of All in 1 to jump start it.  It was much, much easier getting the Zioness out of the unit than it was putting it in.  Just a few maneuvers and we were on our way to Mesa RV to get our oil changed and a new battery, then out to a long awaited brunch.  Now that we’ve been in the van and started planning  the next leg of the trip seems as exciting as the last.  Glacier Park, here we come!
