On The Road Again...

Well here we go! We are moving to College Station! D got an amazing job opportunity in the same field (PT) and are so excited about all it has to offer!

 Update...yes this happened again! Yes, that new motor..broke down! :/ In a teeny tiny town about 50 miles from our destination! We certainly have a good view of now nice people are in this area. No lie at least 10 people stopped to see if we needed help when we pulled over in the tiny WM parking lot. We were amazed at how nice and willing people were to help. "Do you need us to call a tow truck?  Do you need help finding a hotel?  Do you need help?  Do you need anything at all?  Can we help by calling someone? Are you guys ok?  Are you stranded? I know a person who can be here in a few min..."  AMAZED!!! 
 We also looked for 5 hrs today (Sunday) for an RV park. At one point we were sitting in a parking lot waiting for an office to open and W was being so good.  I let him out of his car seat and he was playing in the backseat. He dropped his car over into the 3rd row and had to go "Oh no! Get it mama...get car...get it!" LOL!
All the parks are full and we honestly got the only open spot in the entire area and only because we just happened to show up when someone unexpectedly got moved out of the area for work this morning! Whew! We were stressing over consistently being told "we have zero open spots until the end of the year." We got lucky!  We drove around most of the day and called park after park. This was the last place we called and was a last ditch effort. It isn't anything special at all (zero extras) but, is a place to park! LOL!
This area has pipleine, oil, and natural gas work...just like very location recently! I thought we were a few months behind them in regards to when they moved ( from N TX) and we would be fine because they would have moved on again.  Nothing is more terrifying than not knowing where you are going to live because you have no idea where you are going to actually park the 5th wheel! LOL! We had hotel reservations for a few nights because when we broke down I jumped online immediately and got a room..but um then what?  We owe a huge THANK YOU to the tow truck driver, towing company, and the rv park! They went above and beyond to help us! So far...everyone has been very nice to the new people in town that broke down! LOL!
We need good Juju for the truck to be an easy cheap fix and for D's new job to be as amazing as we hope and have prayed about! Please Send it! PLEASE!! I will update as the wifi allows! We are back to using the wireless card as our sole source.

That's tough. Sorry to hear about your truck being hauled off like that. I hope you get that fixed in no time, so it won't be a target for all those towing people and get to once more roll down the familiar roads.
