ARIZONA  -  DAY 27  - 10.17.23

Things got really strange here last night.  Our lights started dimming, our radio changed from AM to FM on its own and we couldn't turn it off no matter how many times we pushed the on/off button.  Our AC wouldn't kick on and we needed that!  Our first thought was that we needed to run our generator to charge our batteries.  We turned it on, thankfully its quiet and all the neighbors homes are shut up anyway with their AC's running so we didn't disturb anyone.  We have a fan so the plan was to let the generator run until it ran out of gas so we could at least have a fan on us during the night.

We had no clue what was happening but the word "possessed" crossed my mind several times.  So now plans have really changed.  We're heading straight home and not staying in the valley for a few days as planned before anything else happens.  I'm tellin' ya, if it isn't one thing it's another.   The joys of camper ownership!

We loaded up as quickly as we could because of the heat and we were kinda, sorta fearful of what else could go wrong.

Of course I have an on the road shot for you!

When we got as far as Flagstaff we met with a very smoky area.

We stopped at Sam's Club to pick a few things and while we were there we had them check our batteries on the camper.  You guessed it.  One had a dead cell and the other print out said,,,,REPLACE!  So two new batteries!

The rest of the way was uneventful, thankfully!

Upon arrival we emptied the fridge and went to a meeting here in the park.

We're glad to be home.
