On to Kansas

On Wednesday morning we departed Estes Park and headed for Kansas. The weather was fine until about 3:00 PM when it started raining. Then it rained and rained and rained. Running very low on fuel we finally made it to Wakenny, Kansas and an RV park. I got hooked up without drowning and then we relaxed, or tried to relax, with the rain continuing to come down.


On Thursday morning I woke up with my engine missing. The engine in the motorhome that is. After many miles of driving, several calls to Workhorse Customer Service and an appointment made for Monday morning in Kansas City, MO, I finally decided to take things in my own hands. I pulled over to the side of the road and poked my head in the front wheel well and found a loose plug wire. A poke with a stick and we were back in business.


We then went on with our itinerary. After parking the motorhome at an RV park in Emporia, KS we headed for the Tallgrass Prairie Reserve north of Strong City, KS. I got a bunch of flower and butterfly phots and we had a nice relaxing afternoon.
