From CA to FL and back again

From CA to FL and back again
Unit C0177R does an 8000 mile journey in 30 days!

It was not the first time that Andy Leitner had travel through out the country but it was the first time in an RV and he says he will, “absolutely” do it again.
Andy rented unit C0177R, a Winnebago Chalet 26A (C class) from Family RV and before he checked her back in, together they had clocked 8657 miles. Starting of course from Morgan Hill they headed southeast towards Arizona. Completely exhausted and in no mood for hunting a campground, Andy used C0177R for the purpose she was built. Finding a wide spot in the road Andy pulled over and with all the convenience of home, had a warm meal, a hot shower, and a soft bed. When Andy woke up the next day he saw one of Arizona’s signature sunrises near meteor crater. (See the picture of their roadside stop).
From there Andy and C0177R would travel due east until hitting Georgia and then south to Florida. In Florida they would see the launch of a Delta 5 rocket and also meet a new friend who seemed to be contemplating chewing Andy’s leg off. (See the picture of Andy’s new friend).
Luckily Andy came away with all of his limbs and was able to head north-by-north west until landing at an old navy buddies’ campground in Missouri, they had not seen each other in decades!!!
Thirty days later, with a camera full of pictures and a head full of memories Andy brought C0177R back to us with a huge smile on his face, a little tired perhaps, but satisfied.
Thank you Andy for your business, your stories, and your pictures! Here’s to the adventurer in you, we’re glad this was a great first experience and hope it’s not the last, and may your story be an inspiration to other adventurers as well!
