Dear Southern Humboldt,
Our family of 4 came to Southern Humboldt last year and fell in love with the community. Unfortunately, after working at a local festival we experienced a negative event with a BLM Ranger and were required to appear in court this year.
After making the long trip from Cedar City, UT to Eureka...the case was dismissed appropriately.
While making the trip back down the 101 we experienced a breakdown in Rio Dell. Being AAA members, we felt confident all would be handled, but unfortunately there were no AAA drivers who could tow it. There were also no mobile mechanics to help. So, we did the work ourselves without much knowledge of such things. After re-studding the rear wheel, we got on our way. We got to the Humboldt/Mendocino County line where we broke down again. Since it is the same wheel, it appears we did something wrong when "fixing" it.
After another unsuccessful attempt at using AAA, All in One Towing were the only ones who could do the job. We had to pay out of pocket $1300 @ $325 an hour (everything we had) and we had nowhere to take the motorhome.
The only place we have any ties is Garberville and Redway. Those ties are just from working with The Mateel and Eel River Cleanup Project so we don't feel comfortable bringing our problems to them at this time, without knowing if that is the right route.
We are in desperate need of some assistance out of this situation and are hoping someone out there can help with the repairs on the RV or some type of temporary room and board or labor to pay for necessities. We thank you and hope to be valued family in this community until we can get back home.
Namaste
The Kellison Family

Suspicious minded people might like to check how the trial went. The cynic in me wonders whether he got fined rather than breaking down.
