    Glad to hear that you got your truck fixed and all is fine.

    I too spent my honeymoon in Gatlinburg hate to hear about the fires we were thinking of going down there for the holidays last week.

    Yes, it's a shame. Whole town has been evacuated. Lots of building on fire since so many are made of wood. We have had two separate days of rain. Storms just blew threw now. I pray it helps. It will be a very bad year here do to LA Nina. Very dry.

    Being from California, I'm so used to wildfires it's no big thing.

    Just watched a video of the fire and it is just devastating stayed at the West Gate Resort about 2years ago. That is our favorite vacation spot the kids don't want to go anywhere but Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg for vacation.

    I think their hearts will be broken next vacation.
     
    Wickedfire77 Thanks this.

    Well, we will be rolling right threw the holidays. After we blew turbo on Thanksgiving had starter replaced week before that. Now had air dryer fully replaced. We did not pay out of pocket for any of it. Our maintenance fee did, so nice to have it.

    As of now we're running 80 to NJ. Not my idea nor hubby favorite but it helps pays bills. Set up for back to Michigan too. Just praying for no more bad weather.

    Merry Christmas all.
