We were back to work today after our long weekend away.
(Insert grunts, groans and bleeck sounds here.)
As Boris and I reflected on the weekend, we recalled an RVer we met Saturday night. He was driving a 40-ft Class A from Southern California to visit his father in the Sierra foothills. After we exchanged pleasantries he explained that he and his wife had left a day early to avoid snow on "The Grapevine", a particularly hilly and hazardous section of I-5 just north of Los Angeles. We acknowledged his smart move and he went on telling tales of having had to "chain up" his motorhome in snowy weather more than once.
Tonight we made a joint declaration: We ain't EVER "chaining up" our RV. Never ever...not in a million years. If ever we make some heinous error in judgement and find ourselves in a place where chaining up is an option, much less a requirement, we will choose to sit and wait out the weather.
Really. Never. Ever.
Glad we're clear on that!

I am with you 100% on the "no chains" rule. I don't even own any. I also have a "no more grapevine" rule, and I think I'd drive a thousand miles out of my way to avoid it!
