On the Road Again... Again

We got the word this morning that the car repair shop had finally gotten the necessary part and was finishing up our car.  They finished and we headed out of Barstow, that hot, dry dusty town about noon. 

We were about 20 minutes outside of Kingman, Arizona, when we heard some flapping noise coming from under the car.  Oh no!!  We pulled over and looked under the car, only to see a big piece of black plastic hanging down.  It was time to call AAA again.  I saw a sheriff car driving by and flagged him down.  He recommended we go to the Ford dealership in Kingman where a friend of his is a service rep and would treat us right.  AAA towed us there, and the man fixed the loose piece for us for free!!  He even waited around for us to arrive 30 minutes after his closing time.  We were out of there in about 15 minutes and on our way again.

We finally arrived in the Flagstaff area 6 days after leaving the LA area, but we are on our way!
