Idaho

OH MY GOSH! Guess what happened? Yes another blowout yesterday, brand new tires, same middle tire on the right side again. WHAT IS GOING ON??? We believe there is something wrong with this picture. Only minor damage, it ripped off the tire skirt (that's the piece over the tires to make it look nice). We spent 2 hours yesterday in Twin Falls, Idaho getting a new spare tire, and trying to figure out what was happening, but nobody knows. The guys at Commercial Tire in Twin Falls, helped us get back on the road free of charge. When the opportunity arises, we will pay it forward in some manner. We then end up pulling into our campground late at night. That's always fun. We are now contacting Keystone to discuss the issue with them. Our drives have now become extremely stressful. We sit there on pins and needles just waiting for the next blowout. We even went and had the trailer weighed at a scale to make sure we were not over the weight limit. Not even close to the limit they say this trailer should be able to carry. The kids have been very good considering they get stuck in the truck for longer than expected. 's too late for them to even run around. Needless to say they have a little pent up energy. Then when we get to the campground, I just can't wait to get to Corvallis, OR. At least we can be with family. Today we are headed into Corvallis, hopefully there will be no flat tires, but I am not very optimistic. I think Bryce and I will need some good full body massages, and soon.
