We are settled in at the Jellystone RV Park in Waller TX
Tried to get the tire fixed today at a walmart along I-10, our route..... After an hour wait, it looked like it was going to be another 90 mins or more before they could get to our tire..... In walmart parking lot, I pulled the new tire and put on the spare and we continued on. I'll see about getting a local walmart on it tomorrow.
We decided to have the roof replaced. The repairs to the rips from the tree limb are holding right now, but really, it needs to be replaced.
I decided on the FlexArmor system. This is a spray on material like truck bed liner, but different. Forever warranty, even to a new owner of the RV. It is thick and adds about R-7 insulating value.
The insurance adjuster/inspector came by today and agreed it is covered..... There are not many places that do this system. There are 3 in Texas. Taking it to one in the Dallas area Tuesday. They will work on it starting Wednesday and be done late Friday........
BTW: I did ask about the Sailuns. Didn't have them. So, I settled for a Load range E Light Truck tire.

As some of you remember, my Montana saga from a few years ago, well, it has returned again! The unit left the house on Monday going back to the factory to repair the repair they did the last time. I noticed the seam at the overhang had separated just before the Montana Rally last September so I put in a work ticket with Keystone when we got to the rally. When the techs walked up to the rig and then found out it had already been repaired, they said that the rig would have to go to management and they could not help me. Well, just outside of Cincinnati on the way home, I got a call from the one of the higher ups over the warranty/repair division wanting me to bring it to their shop that day. We couldn't as we were pushed for time to get home for my wife to work, so he said he would call later. A couple of weeks later he called and scheduled a pickup for Feb 3 and suggested that the unit may be gone for up to 10 weeks as more than likely they would be replacing the entire left wall due to a delam spot under the left rear slide. The spot they told me was a "misaligned stud" when it went back a few years ago. Anyway, the rig is in Goshen now and let the headache of getting it back begin. I will update you when there is news.
