Day 3 - Into the Ozarks
Check out our morning video
12:42p - We're at the mechanics getting a check up to be pro active and not end up on the side of the road again like on day 1.
We found an absolutely amazing mechanic / angel, Matt, who changed our fuel filter for us which gave the bus much more power! He even test drove it for us and took us to a cute little ice cream / coffee spot.
If you or your loved one's ever need any maintenance around Wheatley, Arkansas. Hit up the boys over at
2:12 - We are back on the road!
2:50 - We realized the gas needle is blow e and it's 10 mins to the next gas station.
Will we make it?! Oh, The suspence!
2:59- We made it!!! Woohoo!!
4:20 - Little Rock, Home Depot. They had the needed mauel water pump!! We're now in business with our water situation!!
5:40pm- Conway, Arkansas. Grocery Shopping.
7:30- London, AR.
We're just getting into the Ozarks (So beautiful) and the check engine light came on and we were loosing force so we pulled over and called our friend to get thoughts on what could be going on.
We turned the engine off waited 20 minutes and in the meantime, had a beautiful sunset picnic.
After our picnic, the engine was cooled and the light was still on.
8:33pm - we're en route to O'Reilly's auto so they can plug her in and get the diagnostics.
8:57pm- looking for the obd2. Can't find the plug in. It could possibly require an obd1, which they don't have access to at this O'Reilly.
Here is a Pic of Flo taking a look for herself.
9:13pm - arrive at Auto Zone. It is an obd2.
Auto Zone > O'Reilly's. We got plugged in!
We need an o2 sensor. They don't have them in stock. We're purchasing one and it'll be here in the morning.
So for tonight, we're staying put and camping out in the Auto Zone parking lot.
Hopefully that's a wrap on today's action.
Melanie's Metaphysical Moment
Arkansas is not a bad place at all to be stuck. I love it here. There's a huge crystal quartz vein that runs through the state.
Crystal quartz - Often referred to as the "master healer," it is believed to enhance spiritual growth and aid in the clearing of negative energy from the mind and environment. Practitioners use crystal quartz to strengthen other crystals’ energies, support emotional healing, and improve mental clarity. Its clarity and purity are thought to resonate with the highest vibration of universal energy, helping individuals to connect more deeply with their higher selves and facilitate a deeper sense of balance and harmony.
