Travel Day
333 miles. Wow...we don't usually travel that far in one day...goes against our rules. However, it is a pretty straight freeway shot from Mesa, AZ to Hemet, CA and we gained an hour. So we got on the road by 9 AM and arrived seven hours later at our new site.
It was a pretty trouble free day. There are good rest areas spaced 50-70 miles apart so we took advantage of those to stop and refresh. Jim says the very best thing about motorhome travel is having the potty with us.
And OK..I did half the driving. I must admit there was no part of the drive that would have bothered me so I tried to verbalize why I panic sometimes about driving this 55' rig. I've narrowed it down to being uncomfortable changing lanes when traffic is heavy. So what is the worst that could happen? I'd miss my turnoff and have to change/correct course.
So I felt good about having done my share of the drive and building my confidence. The drive was windy, traffic was heavy in Palm Springs and I managed it all. Yeah!

I do not believe that there is anything that you could not do after putting your mind to it.
