RV Roamer said:We left Ron & Sams today, with the snow still flying all around us. Roads were OK but we ran into strong cross winds in the Judith Gap (rt 191) and it caused our awning to unfurl. Stripped the pawl on the roller lock and pulled the fabric off the roller and up over the top. Took out the fridge vent too. Had a devil of a time getting it wrapped back up in 40+ mph winds - had to drive to the shelter of a hillside before we could do anything at all. We must have been a sight with several feet of material flapping across the roof as we went down the road a mile or so. It was 37 degrees and raining too - got soaked and frozen wrestling with the thing. But eventually we got in back on the roller tube and sort of tied down and managed to get on our way at reduced speed. Tonight we are at Yellowstone's Edge CG and will work on it more tomorrow, when it warms up a bit (mid-50's, they promise)
Gary:
Another A&E Elite 9000 ? Did it rip the awning like ours. We just finished three weeks of getting a new Weather Pro installed in Chicago and Camping World is going to put the third fabric on when we get to Spartanburg in a couple of weeks. ???
