Home...

After 10 weeks away in Wisconsin, living on Buddy at a marina across the inner bay from our former home, we arrived back home. It was a nasty 1,500 mile tow home as we had trailer tire issues, three tire blowouts, one on the Interstate in Downtown Milwaukee, one on the Tri-State Tollway in Chicago, and the last one on the Interstate south of Chattanooga. 

We learned long ago that if one tire fails it's best to replace all the tires. Problem was we couldn't find replacements when we needed them. If we could have found 4 new tires after the first one failed, we wouldn't have had to deal with two more failures... Bottom line, after towing a 31' Corsair trimaran and now Buddy for the past six years, we have decided to retire from long distance towing. 60,000 miles plus is enough!
