This morning we hitched up and pulled the trailer to Chanute, KS with an appointment at the factory service shop at 7 am in the morning. Jo isn't too happy with that time schedule.
The trip was a bit unusual as there were two construction sites that altered our route. The first was our major east/west route in KS and by the time we saw the closure we were already past the marked detour. I knew we were south of Chanute and knowing that most routes in this part of KS are either N/S or E/W figured we could just continue north and Ms Navi would pick up another E/W route to take. After trying to get me to do a U-turn for some time she finally decided our route should be going north all the way to Rte 54, which would have worked. We saw a KS route marking sign that pointed to Chanute so took it and Ms Navi soon decided that we were on the right path. When we arrived in Chanute and got to the city street we were to turn on for our route to the campground, I had my left turn signal on and began my turn when I saw the barricades and the street totally dug up under reconstruction. I adjusted to a right turn, drove around the block and then maneuvered around the construction area and we were back on track. There is a tree directly in the satellite's path so our TV for this evening is a few channels over the air from Pittsburgh, KS, we'll make do. ;-)
