After contributing mightly to the local economy of Bend, OR we are once more on our way south. The transmission was indeed quite ill. We lucked out with a really good (best in town, possibly state) transmission repair shop, Scott's Performance. He happened to have a new tranny in stock that he had been saving for his own RV. The options were to get the new one and be out the same day or have our old one rebuilt and be on our way in 4 days. The cost was equivalent so we now have a brand new transmission with which to continue our journey. We are quite a bit poorer but in good spirits just the same.
After spending the night in a repair shops parking lot at no charge, we are now in Redding, CA where it is raining with vigor. In fact, it has been raining pretty much all day so we passed on going to Crater Lake as we wouldn't have been able to see much and we may have encountered some of that white stuff. We are not prepared for that white stuff!
Tomorrow we are expecting more rain from the Pacific storm that is working it's way across the state but will head south anyway as it may be a little warmer rain:) We'll work out where and how to get there this evening but it will be around Angels Camp or Sacramento or ??????
Our best to all who are trying to follow this ramble.
Paul & Lou

Just remember the biker mantra - or is it buffett???
No where to go and all day to get there!
It's all in the attitude, right? It's not rain, it's liquid sunshine! :-)
