    Hope you feel better! Thank you for taking the 60 back to PHX. IMO it is the most beautiful drive in AZ! Just don’t come that route south in the last hour of the day. The sunset will blind you and then you will go around a curve it will go dark then next turn you’re blinded again. It makes for a wild ride.
    I got to camp once when I was a teenager at the bottom of the canyon. We had rope we could grab on to after we slid down the rapids.
    Now I realize how crazy dangerous that was LOL!

      100% true on that sun blinding thing. Been there, done that. Finally pulled over till it was below the horizon.
      But that drive is truly breathtaking.

    Ever experienced the Clueless Camper running a Generator through the night while Disrupting Everyone else's peace and quiet.. nothing worse than spending hours or days traveling to get out in nature get your Camp all set up then have it ruined by a thoughtless person blasting a stereo or operating a loud vehicle....

    If you can’t hear, you may have a ruptured eardrum. That happened to me in the spring, when I drove in the mountains when I was congested. If that’s what happened, it will heal and the hearing will come back, but it will take a few weeks.

    That hwy 60 drive is pretty amazing! We did it just two weeks ago, Nov. 1st. We camped in Show Low at the Fool Hollow Rec Area. We kept an eye out in town for you and Kevin. We LOVED the Trumped Store! Came down to Mesa on hwy 60 pulling a 40 foot fifth wheel. My hubs said over and over that he was thankful for that diesel brake on our truck. We saw all kinds of semis and campers on that road. Crazy beautiful drive! Be safe. Be happy!

    You certainly can shut off outside air when you run your ac. Might be a max air button, that will recirculate cabin air. But there is always a way. May have to resort to the owners manual or ask a dealer.

    We were driving through the canyon to Show Low a few years back when I caught motion in my peripheral vision. Looked over, and there were two USAF fighters flying up the canyon. They were actually below us! We watched as they followed the canyon at high speed and disappeared around a bend. It was an amazing experience I wish I could do again!

    If you don't have a fever, a mixture of 1T honey, 1T crushed garlic, & 1T Turmeric, mix well and take a teaspoon full every 4 hours. Makes a great natural antibiotic. If all else fails, try to see a Dr. & get some Ivermectin.. Best wishes for you new journey of trails & travels!

    Nurse advice: when you have sinus congestion/drainage start always take a decongestant to keep it from building up too much pressure in the ears and an expectorant to keep from ending up with pneumonia. (Mucinex D satisfies both needs) Get well soon. Give the kitties my love.

    🐸 Glad to see your camper & toad safely maneuvered the switchbacks. At the point where you decided to pass the semi I would have been hesitant. Better to have such in front of one should it’s brakes overheat with limited areas for an out-of-control semi to pull off. Your video definitely affords other rv’ers the possibility of such an adventure.

    Just be glad that you are not planning to travel to Cincinnati Ohio and vicinity. The city is a nice place to visit. One of the few troubles visiting Cincinnati is the weather is often unpredictable. Unless you are well prepared, you will have a lot of problems with your sinuses. If you or anyone want to visit Cincinnati and stay for a few days, ask for information from anyone who lives in the city and rest of the area.
    Cincinnati is a beautiful city despite of the few problems plaguing the city. There are a few respectable RV parks in the area.😀😀🙂

    So what can help with the ear, is make your fingers like the Volcan hand sign, and place 2 fingers behind the ear and in front and massage following your jaw line, the back 2 fingers behind and under the jaw following the jaw line to the chin, there's drainage tubes and other lymphnodes there and promoting movement along with warm/hot towel can REALLY help.
    I also do this weird pop thing with like the inside back of my jaw and ear that pops my ear, it helps too, I don't what that's called 😂

    I had my first ear infection in April and my ear, while it has improved, still feels plugged and my hearing is still not what it was. In April the doc said that it could take a while for my ear to become unplugged, and if I was really worried about my hearing to go a specialist.
    I’ve been putting that off because every time I put an earbud in, my hearing is just fine and the pressure goes away. It’s weird.
