It's just impossible to buy something as complicated as a large motorhome and not find things that need to be fixed. As you may remember, we discovered a stress crack in one rear corner of the motorhome shortly after we moved into it and we took it back up to the dealer, Guaranty, near Eugene, OR for repairs. Well in April, Tom discovered a couple more cracks in the roof where the seaming was not done quite right. So we made plans to go back up to Guaranty to have them repaired along with a list of several other more minor items we'd been finding over the winter. We probably could have found someone closer to do the work but we already knew we wanted to return to the northwest this summer and we had faith in the Guaranty team to do a good job with the repairs.
We set out on our trip on April 19th and decided to go up through Utah and into Boise, ID where our friend Doug was recovering from knee surgery before heading over to Oregon. We made the trip from the Phoenix area to Boise in just under a week, so we didn't get to do a lot of exploring, but it was still fun to take a route we'd never traveled before.
We stayed a few days in Boise visiting with Doug and Karen and then we headed over to Oregon.
