We made it! Thanks to everyone for the advice and encouragement. As usual, the steady winds forecast only told half the story... gusts well into the 40 MPH range - especially in places between Segovia and Sonora around some of the canyons and cuts. I'm convinced that the 450 lbs of fresh water down low helped some. I stuck to 55 - 60 MPH. I'm sure some of those wanting to do the 80 MPH speed limit may have been irritated with me, but there was plenty of room to pass on the interstate. Only one other fiver passed me - probably doing about 70 - and I watched him wag down the road in front of me after he passed. Kinda surprised me for someone pulling a DRV Mobile Suites. Anyway, it was a confidence building exercise for me and I thank everyone again.
It was 21 degrees here when we got up a while ago. Our home is warm, the water is still running (on-board fresh water - didn't hook up the hose last night), and the coffee smells and tastes great!
Safe travels,
Rob
