Well, I have to rat out Rowdy, he was involved in a horrific collision
while in Boise.
The RV dump at the Flying J I sent him to is in an alley between the
"store" and the "shop" with dumpsters on both sides.
As he was pulling out, he dinged the trim piece on the rear corner on
the driver's side. Had he been 1/4" further from the dumpster
(literally!) he might have lived through the accident...

That sewer hose must have felt what's coming up and left the sinking
ship while still on HW 20.

How true!
Got any hint from Nigel if I sufficiently covered the expenses?

Actually, it bailed long before you reached the pavement, it was only
a few miles down the dirt road. Had it not been crushed, I would have
stopped to pick it up.

I have not talked to him, I'll call him this evening.
It was great having you and Volker/Anja spend the night at the house
and dinner, thanks! If you happen to hear from Volker and get his
"throw away phone" number, please let me know. I'd like to keep up
with the rest of their USA visit.
