DURANGO, CO STILL!!!! MAY 15 & 16

Yep, still here--could be worse.  Wednesday, took the Jeep in to have the brakes looked at.  Leaving Panama City, FL the brakes on the Jeep locked up due the aux. brake applying the brakes when not supposed to----hot and smokin'.  Had to replace both front rotors, turned the rear rotor and new pads all around.  An expensive not planned for.  Karen did the laundry.

OUR SITE AT THE DURANGO KOA
Thursday, took the Beaver to CAT dealer to find out why she's overheating.
An all day affair, they checked this and that, had the oil changed.  Took her out,
up the mountain and half way up , she overheated.  Back to CAT, after more diagnosis, it was determined the radiator needed to be rotted out(cleaned internally).  So, tomorrow back to CAT to
take out the radiator, send it out, have it cleaned, bring back and install.  Will be camping out in the CAT dealers parking lot 'till Tuesday. We have the Jeep and we can tour the sites--Mesa Verde, Ouray, CO, Telluride, etc.

'Till next time----
