Unforeseen Events



On our drive to Indiana we lost the cover for the hot water tank so we had to have it replaced and painted. We bought the cover at Newmar and had the painting done at Precision Painting. They were able to do it today so we will still make it to boot camp tomorrow. They did a very good job of matching the paint for a reasonable amount. They have a big shop and do all of Travel Supreme's painting but the owner who did the bid for us said they still do a lot of smaller jobs. We also had Focal Wood Products install sills on five windows and frame a couple of lights. They look really great and give a nice finishing touch to the motor home. Since we were having work done we were able to stay at Newmar yesterday and at Precision tonight. The good news is the nights are free, the bad news is it costs quite a bit to do any work on the motor home. Because we had to get here for the work we were having done we stayed in three different places in three days. This is the first time we haven't stayed at least two nights in a campground. This part of the country had several inches of rain last week and as a result the mosquitoes have been terrible. We saw a plane spraying right along the road in a small town. If you look closely you can see it above the building.
