Well thats great news that he is soon to back on the road. My next question was goin to be. Where is he? And how can I help? I guess neither of those matter now. Glad to hear that he is gettin stuff taken care and being taken care of. Especially with the high desert heat we got goin on the past few weeks. Hope the kids are havin fun with grandpa!

I dont have many tools or money for that matter.. But if you need a few parts or something of the sort and my store has them in stock I can help out with a lil price brake. Its the least I can do.

Thanks, I know it cost him to come out for us, and now the cost of returning is adding up fast with a new pump and now a new rad. Just thought we could help him a little.

We scratched our heads last night about his issue when I met up with him, Clay, Lisa and Nick. The problem baffled all of us. The radiator was the only and last thing that hasn't been changed out yet and he has some mighty big hills to climb between here and home.

I too know his pp account if anyway els wants to help out. Hannah and I sent him a gift earlier and offered to help with more but Peter being the modest guy he is didnt ask for anything. If anyone els is up for helping them you figure even one night longer of feeding 9 people is a min. of $45 even at Mc. Donalds. Plus trying to save enough to get them enough fuel to get home in an excursion that has a 40 gallon tank.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just talked to Peter on the phone. They got the new radiator in and just took it for a drive with the A/C blasting and the temp gauge is behaving itself. He pulled a 6% 5 mile grade with out any issues!!!

Lets keep our fingers crossed the rest of the trip goes ok.
