We headed out 8 In the morning for our Florida trip. About 3 miles down the road Susan discovered that she left her prescription sunglasses. We turned around and went back home. After retrieving them we headed out again. Little did I know this was setting the tone for the rest of the day. We had a good drive untill Baton Rouge. Traffic was backed up about 15 miles before the river bridge.Stop and go till we crossed the Missippi river. Somewhere around Hammond, La I smelled diesel, that's not a good sign. We made it to Biloxi and found a rv park. I could see fuel leaking from below. It turned out to be a fuel injector line leaking in the back cylinder. A neighbor told me there was a diesel repair shop right down the road. I got there just as the owner was leaving. Everyone was gone and he said it would be Monday morning at 8 before they reopened. I went back to the trailer and called around and everyone was closed. Looks like we will be staying here till at least Monday, On the bright side at least we didn't break down on the side of the road. I set up our satellite and called Dish so we could get the local channels. With Dish"s usual efficiency it took 4 calls to get a tech that could speak good English and hit my receiver correctly. Anyway tomorrow should be a lazy day.
