Second Trip With Olga

[SamHeatherandgirls]

This past weekend the family (wife and two kiddos) went to Johnson's Shut Ins State Park in Missouri. Pulling Olga it took us about two hours or so to reach our destination. We had a good time on the first day, however on day two, while on the paved trail going to the shut ins, my older daughter accidentally bowled over my younger daughter. Younger daughter ended up breaking her front right tooth into three pieces. Poor little girl was in some pain and bleeding. We left our older daughter with the in-laws and drove back to our pediatric dentist and had the poor girl's tooth pulled. We drove back to the campgrounds and continued on with our trip and still managed to have a good time.

We have never been to Johnson's Shut Ins before. The entire campground is only a few years old, as it was rebuilt after the Tom Sauk Reservoir breached back in 2005 and destroyed the entire area with something like a billion gallons of water.

I found out new TV pulled Olga very well. No issues with sway, and the air shocks / air bags installed by the previous owner kept things nice and level with about 50# of air pressure. The Ecoboost motor also made acceleration onto the Interstates a breeze.

Despite our dental mishap, everyone ended up having a great time.
