It was a whirlwind two days to prep for our trip... Doing wash, getting fuel, mow & weedeat the lawn, unloading and reloading basement,clothes and pantry, defrosting fridge, touching up some caulking, etc.
Tuesday AM, we had to rush just a bit to get the rig pulled out of the driveway, as I recalled the neighbor telling me his yard guys were coming this morning, and they tend to block part of the curb.
We pulled away just before 10am. We made good time and got to Marion, Arkansas at about 6pm. The truck pulled great, and no problems fueling as we went with the big tank. This truck has a little larger regular tank, so we can go a little further before needing to fuel.
We stayed at the Memphis KOA.
We had reservations, and we had picked a 30amp pull through to save money and also be able to stay hooked up to the trailer overnight. (Their 50amp sites are a little too short to stay hooked up.) that meant we could only use 1 AC. It was a little warm, but we managed ok. The cats also joined us, they needed to cool off, too! We got some cloudcover as we set up, which really helped.
Tango lays right under the AC vent that dumps cold air straight down.
Tony made some quick sandwiches and we ate in the bedroom, since that AC cools the space faster than the main one.
We surfed via our phones, and hit the hay pretty early since the first day of driving is always the hardest.
It was a long day, but it's good to be traveling again with the Mammoth.
