Broken RV’s



“I have been here six days. The new fuel pump get’s here tomorrow. I’m from Ohio. All that salt in the winter time has corroded some other parts. So I’ll be here a few days more.

“All I want to do is get back to my wife in Michigan” another RV driver said. “The part should have been here on yesterday’s bus” another stranded road traveler lamented

Throughout this pat of Northern Canada tourists, mostly seniors, travel through this magnificent country enjoying immense beauty from the comfort of their large recreational vehicles. Some which sleep five people are towed by heavy duty pick-up trucks. Others are self contained homes on wheels built on a bus chassis. Both often have serious mechanical problems after plying the rough roads of the Yukon and British Columbia.

Jerry Morgan and David Bivins RV joineries from Birmingham, Alabama seemed to have more luck in their vehicle as we joyfully talked over coffee at a road side stop near Watson Lake.

“it’s a hell of a way to spend a vacation” the elderly, distinguished RV driver said as he waited to have a blown out tire replaced. I knew he was right. “Try walking” I said as I wobbled off to repair my first foot blister of the trip. Even walkers aren’t immune from breakdowns during long arduous journeys!
