friends need help! Billings Montana
Hi all! I was hoping for any suggestions for good friends of mine that took their RV cross country for a trip to the Grand Canyon. Im asking here, because I think you all might have more info I can pass along with your FT lifestyle...
Heres the story in a nutshell...gotten from scraps of information from our friends...
Family of 4, 2 teen boys, mom and dad...set out from Eastern PA to travel to the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone. We got word from them yesterday that their rv broke down on the highway in Billings MT. Tow truck operator broke the door off the rv, and another tow truck had to come and get the other tow truck and rv to a shop. The woman and her son would not fit in the cab of the tow truck, so they had to hitch hike into town. (I dont think there was cell service). It does not look like the part needed can be found anywhere. the garage is willing to drive 3 or 4 hours to find what they need. The family could not get a motel room, because everywhere for 50 miles was books solid for a Tim McGraw concert. They have no car. They slept in the parking lot of the repair shop on the side of the highway in their backpacking tents.
Im posting this to find out any suggestions for these people, I suggested they ask the garage to allow them to sleep in the rv...but it looks like they may need to rent one to complete their trip.
Not sure what else is happening right now, but any advice I can pass along is appreciated!
