After speaking with a young technician at the RV dealership that we purchased the trailer from, Paul was able to gain access to the compartment that houses the broken motor. The cause of the problem seemed to be that the motor separated from the gear box. You can see the greased axle in the picture. That greasy axle should not be visible! By the time Paul gained access to and understood the problem a bit better it was well past the closing time of the RV dealer some 3 time zones away. Messages were left.

Today was a restocking day for the most part. After living in the national park for a week and travelling for most of the next we were low on everything from TP to soda. Ranger was also critically low on exercise and was making that known to everyone. This evening we made sure he was well exhausted from swimming in the river before cooking fajitas on the grill with Chris and Sam.

Special Note: $8.97 for a 12 pack of Coke??!?! Washington’s soda tax is stiff (even for diet).
