Finally got our 5th wheel home Tuesday, and getting it back into the yard was, to put it nicely, a real comedy of errors.
The trailer is too long, the turn radius on our truck is too small and the road is too narrow to make it into the driveway without running off the road. I typically have the front wheels in the grass across the street as I complete the turn, and if it is the least bit muddy, it's a recipe for disaster.
After several unsuccessful attempts, and some deep ruts in our yard, Honey called Ronnie Warman. our neighbor who used to run hotshot deliveries with a 42 foot gooseneck and he put it in like it was on rails - one try - smooth as silk.
I am now into the second day of filling in the ruts. It is amazing how much dirt it is taking.
