I'm still wondering about the wind. I took a small
trip to Tucson last week (I stayed in Catalina State
Park) and was bouncing on the road. I was beginning
to think that I was going to sell my new motorhome but
then the wind stopped and the drive was much better.
However, I find that driving at about 60 m.p.h. feels
the most comfortable - anything above that I don't
feel safe if there is a sudden wind gust. I live in a
very windy area (last week schools were closed at 1:00
p.m. because of wind gusts up to 70 m.p.h.) Anyway,
coming home from Tucson, I got hit with a gust that
literally moved me three feet into the oncoming lane
on a two lane road. (No one was coming, it's lonely
country out here in some places!)
When there is no other wind, I'm used to the semi's
overtaking me. I guess it's something I'll just have
to get used to.
On another note, it was a wonderful trip. I drove
through the Coronado National Forest and spent the
first night at Wal-Mart in Sierra Vista, AZ. I went
in to ask them of RV camping in the area, and they
told me to stay right there! The only other RV was a
larger Sunrader pulling a motorcycle from CO.
When I saw the larger Sunrader I was jealous (very
cute RV), but my RV is perfect (and comfortable) for
me!
Since the Sunrader doesn't drive like my Honda Accord,
a $10.00 back cushion from Pep Boys has made ALL the
difference! ;-)
I'm getting ready to travel to New Orleans a week from
Saturday for a conference. Any suggestions along I-10
from Las Cruces?
