OUR SECOND DAY

We started down the road and we were fine for the first 5 minutes. There were 5-10 mile an hour winds which are no big deal-but, we apparently hit a gust just right, and heard a horrible sound. We knew right away it was the awning, since it had happened in MN once, and we were able to roll it back. Not this time! The pipe had completely come loose on one end and was on the roof.


The other end looked like this. Don couldn't get it loose.

Help finally arrived and he was able to get it detached.

You can see how the wind ripped the canvas.

It was obvious that it had to be cut off.

Thank God for insurance and our road service!!! The rest of the day had minor problems and we ended up going to a casino with free hook-ups outside of Oklahoma City. I made a meatloaf, thinking we needed some comfort food!
