Still Smiling… Stuck & Stuffed in a Jeep

Our extra night in Little Rock was spent in the Cummins parking lot—thankfully, they had full hookups so we could be road-ready the moment our part from Tiffin arrived (overnighted, thank goodness 🙌).

With no idea how long we’d be waiting, Don immediately started tracking the shipment—because what else do you do in 2025 but track every move of a delivery? 📲 Isn’t technology great? 😂

Around 10:50 a.m., we got the text! We scooped up Jack 🐾, hopped into the Jeep, and settled in… for an unknown stretch of time… which was a while.

It was a gray, rainy day—the kind where the inside of the Jeep starts to feel like a mobile phone booth. We were cramped, slightly claustrophobic, and one “Are we there yet?” away from snapping. 😵‍💫 But hey, at least we had snacks and Wi-Fi!

To pass the time, we caught up on social media, grabbed a quick bite, ran out for a few groceries—and sprinted back with hopeful hearts that maybe, just maybe, our rig would be ready to roll.

Nope… not yet! The issue was fixed, 🎉 but the RV was still in pieces and the techs were at lunch. So, we resumed our positions: Beth scrolling with Don and Jack napping like it was a hostage situation. 😂⏳

Finally, at 3 p.m.—sweet relief! They rolled our RV out of the bay like a big ol’ prize on “The Price is Right.” We pulled out at 3:35 p.m., bound for Blowing Springs, AR… slightly rumpled, thoroughly cramped, but back on the road again! 🚐💨Read more
