Ok folks, I got my confirmed flight details today, I'll arrive in San Jose at 2:30 pm on Feb. 16th and this mission will officially be underway.
I'll keep everyone updated along the way. Thanks everyone for your support and information you've given me.

Good luck, and remember if you need help, we're all a quick note away!

If there's one thing you can believe about Streamers, believe that if you need help, they will be there! Its truly amazing.

One more item that I would seriously consider is a roadside assistance policy, just in case. If you have an issue on the road, not many people here would be able to assist with a 45' 5th wheel. If the owners have a policy now, make sure it is up to date.

Rollin' out into Silicon Valley rush hour? FUN!

Just you and your sister-in-law? Or are their kids traveling with you too?

Safe travels home. Keep us posted!

Nope it's just me. I'm on my own. I can make good time that way.
Traffic was nail bitting for a while. It's better now. Gonna get all the miles in I can. I'll keep everyone posted.
This is one HUGE HEAVY TRAILER!!!

Be careful out there and enjoy the trip. I enjoy picking up and doing runs like that every once in a while.

Mr. S

That is a real nice thing that you are doing for your sister. It also sounds like quite an adventure. Wish I was riding shot gun with you. After a trip like that you will have quite a few stories to tell.

Good luck on your trip. Stay safe!

Dan

Erm, hon...stopping to eat and sleep a TAD more often might be advisable.
