Well folks, even after all of your input I could not find another solenoid. It has started for me the last couple of times. Like I said, it's intermittent.

Using the emergency start switch on the dash ( which never did work ) I ran a single wire to the starter solenoid and another wire to the hot side of the cigarette lighter on the dash. Voila ! It works. It might not be the proper way to do it, but we are traveling soon and I couldn't take a chance of stalling somewhere. Thank you all again for your input, and I'll be ready to take the flack.
You shouldn't be getting any flack. You had a problem, and solved it, it only temporary. You may want to investigate further as the problem may be contagious. This may help others with a no start condition.
