I have been off the list for a few weeks and missed the the *bad* times
you guys have had with the list being down. Good timing on my part!
Heavy rains for two days southbound and again heading home, but the
`Vulture Wagon` ran just fine. Sorry to have missed stopping in on Sean
Bartnik, just too darn wet in VA.
Spent four days camping on both sides of the Okefenokee in great weather
and fun boating. My better half was so surprized to find how much we
could pack into the westy and how easy it was to live in. She is used to
the 5th wheeler and all the room it offers. Did all back road travels and
small campsites that we never attempted with the big rig, and got 21.176
mpg instead of 8 mpg. Used 1/2 qt. oil for 2400 miles.
Only problems were a vent leak in the hevy rain, duct tape came to the
rescue, and the idle jumped up to 2000 rpm (problem not yet solved, any
suggestions will be greatfully accepted).
