Brake Down

We spent two nice days in Olympia, WA, visiting fast friends in our former home.  Good food, good wine, good times.

OK, now on to Alaska!

Do I hear some snickering out there?  Feeling doubtful that we will leave unchallenged?  OK, OK.

We did leave.  Drove a mile out and found the trailer brakes uncooperative again.  Turned around and reoccupied our campsite.  So close!

I had already talked with Dexter Axle, the company that manufactures the brake actuator.  Jackie, the wonderful service manager there had offered to send us a reconditioned actuator for no charge!  So I took her offer earlier than expected.  They tested and shipped one to us immediately.  It should arrive tomorrow and a mobile RV technician will install it.

We will retry on Thursday.  No snickering!!
