Traveling in a RV is a hell of a lot of fun, but I wouldn't tell you the whole story if I didn't mention the little mishaps that are also part of it. Like the thing with our tents. To make a long story short. We have two tents that were supposed to go with us on the RV trip. During the whole move we forgot to unload them in Vegas, which we didn't realize until we got to Flagstaff. So they traveled on to Tucson with us. On our drive back from Tucson to Vegas we realize that we forgot them again this time in Tucson. Tommy's brother Eric is nice enough to ship them to Moab for us to pick up at the Post office. Not realizing that we need both tents, because we promised to lend one of them to our friends for the canoe trip, he just sends one tent. Which we in return don't realize until the day we start to canoe trip and finally open the shipping box. So we end up paying $30 for shipping cost and $60 for a tent rental. We could have just bought a new tent instead. It seems like we've been lucky with the weather, avoiding the rain but in return seem to have bad luck with our tents. Maybe we don't need tents because Tommy's rain dance is keeping the rain away? Well it's not that warm yet and in the end we're glad we do have a tent for our canoe trip.

Moab (Day 4) - Canoe Trip preparation
