A bit of this, a bit of that

Wednesday - Friday, Aug 17-19

We haven't been doing much, just some exciting things like laundry, vacuuming, washing windows, etc.  I know, I know, not things you want to hear about.  We kept having dark skies but no rain or big winds.  The weather has actually been pretty nice, in the high 80's. 

Friday morning we packed up to leave.  We had an appointment with an RV service place down the road.  When we arrived at the base our belt for the dash air conditioner compressor had broken.  Bill had another belt but couldn't break the bolts loose so we made the appointment.  We dropped the rig off and went down the street to have breakfast while they worked on it.  Turns out the compressor had seized up.  Bummer!  We decided not to have them do anything about it.  I will just have to use the generator and house air while driving down the road if we need it.  A new part will need to be ordered so that will take time waiting.  I think we are just going to wait until we return to Calif.  See Terry, everything isn't all peaches and cream all the time. 

We are now in Elkhart, IN at the Elkhart Campground.  We will be here for the weekend and then head into Michigan for a few days.  We went to one of the surplus places today but didn't find anything we wanted. We are going to do some exploring tomorrow and Sunday.  After the surplus place we picked up some groceries and I fixed dinner when we got home. 

So we haven't been doing much but have plans for the next two days.  I hope you have fun.
