Our motorhome is at South Padre Island, Texas!
Mike's son Reed and about 6 of his friends took our motor home on spring break. They only wanted to use it for the trip down and back so they could all ride together and take their luggage in one vehicle. They have a condo rented to stay in when they get there. He called when they got there (while dipping his toes in the ocean) and said they had a some moments of concern when they got into some wind and it was harder to steer and handle than they had thought about. But they made it and will drive it back home next weekend.

I hope the weather is more spring-like at South Padre Island. But 'm sure Reed and his buddies will have a good time regardless.
Ah Ha! Now you know that the motorhome is capable of traveling out of the County! Amazing isn't it! That sucker has usefulness beyond its recent past history! Guess you will have to get into it and try to see if it will take you to new adventures.
Regarding the wind down in the "Valley", we were pummeled with "breezes" the entire time we were there! It can become gruesome at times!
Hope the boys have a good time and tell enough stories to spark a fire in you guys to go camping more.

Got a call from Reed yesterday. They noticed the vent cover was off. They don't know when it came off. It's just been parked since they got there. Mike told him to seal it up with a plastic bag and tape so rain don't get in. They probably lost it on the way down, had it open for ventilation when they went through the winds.
Yep, we need to use it or get rid of it. Price of the camper would pay for a lot of motel rooms, airfares and car rentals.
