14 January – Memphis to Birmingham

We woke up to minus 5 degrees INSIDE the RV...

We were very thankful to get a call from the RV repairman to check on us, to see if we still needed the furnace fixed. The roads were clear, so we drove to his shop, just over the border in Mississippi, at a place called Olive Grove. Barry has a huge shed, with a furnace, so it was warm! Shout out to Barry at Town and Country Mobile RV repair - he's a great bloke :)

The furnace on the RV was an easy fix – corrosion on the wiring system. We also got the fridge looked at, and just as well, as it had been subject to recall that we didn’t know about. Barry sorted that too (paid for by the manufacturer) and we were pleased to be finally on the road!

The drive took us south west, from Mississippi into Alabama. The interstate is an easy drive, through rolling hills and woods.By the time we got to Birmingham it was getting toward 5pm, so we pulled in for the night just South of the city.
