At least no bugs on the windshield. Really praying for a quick fix Tom. You folks are doing a great job of puting a seed in our minds for a western GTG, one like we talked about at Milford .01. All who wander are not lost.

not really the picture we were waiting for but thumbs up for color coordination (blue) and is that a Kenworth W900
hope Tom and Nancy get back on their own wheels soon!

I surely hope the Johns' issue is minor!

This is the first time I didn't miss being along on the trip. (Somehow I'm thinking if I was there I'd be working on/under a diesel...)

Spent the last 10 days cruising the north shore of Lake Superior in my Dad's 40 ft boat. 350 miles of lake and Nippigon Bay, too. Beautiful scenery and wonderful Canadian hospitality all the way. Great weather and smooth rides, too.

Hoping it's a minor fix but it sounds like head gasket trouble Good luck T & N !

I had a choice of LSU colors or Kentucky. after following all that LSU crap around for a few weeks It was refreshing to see Ky Blue on the trailer. It did look pretty good on there.
Steve it was fuel not water. unless you had a pocket full of injecters it wouldn't have done any good under it. Wish I had been with you in Canada. Catch anything edible? See ya on the road soon I hope.

I guess you might want to sneak this "Thing" into their coach.



What was it again???

I remember, it's there to...

"...ward off drive shaft monsters and other creatures that could possibly create problems on future Barth trips."

I guess proximity alone isn't good enough.

I think it might just be something with that part of Montana. We spent a couple days in Harding when we brought ours home from Seattle

At least it looks like you guys have been having fun otherwise

Tom I hope you recoved from your dizzy spell from looking out the window going backwards. Ha ha that was funny it reminds me of when I used to ride in my dads station wagon with the rear facing seat looking out the back window man that was forever ago.

Great pictures looks like you guys are having a great time other than the breakdown. Oh well shit happends. Hopefully it's not that bad, good luck on the rest of the voyage.

Well, Donna and I are at a campground in Billings, MT waiting on Tom and Nancy to hopefully arrive. The Shop is suppose to complete repairs today.

We spent 2 days at Yellowstone while the repairs were being made. There are worse places in the world to kill a couple of days.

A few pictures taken in the Park:

















Now EXACTLY how wide is that Barth???????? Did you include the mirrors?????



Nick

Sweet trip. Glad to see the bears.

Great pix! Sounds like Tom's problem might not have been too bad if he's nearly on the road all ready. We love seeing where you go and hearing about it, so keep it coming.

Nick; The third pic of your campsite is the best, we are totally glad, happy, thrilled that you two got to have this adventure this summer, keep on Barthing. All who wander are not lost.

We are in Spearfish, SD and Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor hail shall keep the folks from their appointed wine glasses. We refuse to be overcome by inclement weather or anything else.



Nick

So, what was the issue with Tom's engine?

Tonight, we are in Mitchell, SD. Looks like this might be our last night together. Tomorrow Tom and Nancy will continue east and Donna and I will turn south. My 88 year old mother is having health issues and we will be headed to her place in Monroe, La. Tom and Nancy will be trying to nurse the coach home to Monticello, KY. We have traveled about 5000 miles together in the last few weeks and it has been the experience of a lifetime. The memories will last forever. We are already planning our next adventure up the east coast into Canada, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, etc.

Will keep you posted until we get home to Georgia.
