About half-way into our drive from Pennsylvania to New York, I had to go to the bathroom. We were also very worried about the canoe and kayak on the back of Betty. This was our first trip moving with the boats on the back of the trailer and we weren't sure if they were shaking loose. It's not easy stopping with a 39 foot long trailer which weighs 10 tons. So, we were both searching for a rest area, or big box store where we could stop. Finally, Terry spots a long gravel area to the right of the road, and he pulls over. There is nothing around except a cemetery. As I jump out of the truck to go and check on our boats, I quip "Too bad I can't pee in the cemetery". I walked to the back of Betty, checked on the boats (which were surprisingly ok), and jumped back into the passenger seat. I managed to hold my pee until we were parked in our new campsite in the Finger Lakes. Here's the funny part. Hours later, it occurred to me that when I went back to check on the boats, I passed the door to our trailer -- and our very own bathroom -- which is always accessible when we're on the road. I told Terry. And since it hadn't occurred to him either -- we both burst out laughing.
Shhhhhh.... don't tell anyone we were dumb enough to not realize we were towing our own bathroom! - Amanda
