It was still early morning when we pulled out of the campground.
Since it is only about 10 miles from Rainbow Plantation to the Camping World in Robertsdale, Alabama, I choose to just follow Dave rather than hook up the car.
We soon arrive there and Becky checked us in.
That took awhile as we had to figure out how to explain in as few words as possible each problem we are having. Then we all walked out to the RV so Becky could look for dents and scratches. We have one set of scratches from going down a too narrow driveway.
Once all that was done, we went to Waffle House for breakfast then came back to spend the day in Camping World’s customer lounge so as to be available to answer any questions that might arise.
We were twice lucky in the lounge. First, we were the only ones there so we could turn off the TV. Second, they provided this facility for us:
It is just a nook along side a major hallway but it had lots of outlets above the counter so we could plug in both computers and our router without crawling around furniture looking for places to do that. Being in the hallway, people stopped by off and on all day to ask computer related questions. One was a woman wanting to know how were were getting internet since all their computers were down. Later a guy stopped to tell us he shut down their whole system by downloading movies.
I’m sure glad we have our own connection! Plus, I’m glad Dave made our network invisible and secure so no one can use it to download movies. We’d be way over our data limit in no time if someone used our network to do that.
We also talked there with the mechanic working on our RV which was, after all, why we hanging out there. He appeared to have lots of knowledge and experience. He was frustrated that they just had someone from Suburban furnace teach a class on furnaces that did not include the new model we have; I guess it’s supposed to be too new to need repairs. But he made phone calls to several vendors about various problems we are having and came to us twice using a method of questions and answers to narrow down the possible solutions to our glitches. He also made notes on answers we gave which might help him solve other people’s problems in the future.
Parts are now being ordered and I have high hopes of a successful conclusion.
TTYL,
Linda
