All In A Day's Work...

Late yesterday, we received the call with instructions for this morning's work schedule.  So, we were up by 5:00 am and ready to head to

the service center for our 7:00 appointment.  Yes, that is AM!

We were greeted by Roger and Joel, who were ready to get to work.  The first thing they tackled was the topper on the driver's side slide.  Upon

inspection, it was decided that the only way to fix the sag was to

replace it.

Randy and

DSC_0122

Mark made sure they were doing their job.

Next on the list was to adjust the

DSC_0127

slide from the inside.  This involved replacing one of the rollers.  They put this

green tape on the floor to make sure the roller was in the correct position.

On to the shade on the front windshield.  Just a minor adjustment needed there.

I have been wanting to replace this

mini blind with a pull down shade.  So, this was the perfect time.  While the guys were waiting for it to be delivered to the work station, Roger took down the mini blind, but... when the shade was delivered, it had been damaged.  So, it had to be reordered, and should be here in a couple of days.

By this time, our 3 hours of express bay time were almost up. And, the only thing left on the list for Roger and Joel was to apply a little dab of silicone to the corner of the tile on the bathroom backsplash.

Great work guys, thanks, for dong a good job.

  However, this was only the end of the list for the Express Bay.  It was also determined that we do have to have the flooring replaced in the wet bay.  This is an onsite recall as such and is taken care of as needed.  But, it requires getting on another waiting list for another day...our time frame is probably a week or so away.

Down to the last item for the day, and that was the rear jack that has been giving us fits for a while now.  It almost always goes down, but, only comes up when it really wants to.   But, this is done in a different bay, so...

We returned to our campground site and shortly after lunch time, they were calling for us to come back to the

DSC_0131

service area.  Once we were in the bay, the techs ran the jacks down, they ran them up, they ran them down, and back up.  They decided the jack motor was either putting out to many amps or not enough amps and confusing the controller.  The only fix...

a new jack.  So, off

DSC_0137

with the old one and on

with the new one.

All done, reset, and ready to go, back to the camp ground that is.

After hours, Trevor stopped by to return my door mats that he had taken to put some new trim on.  He was also going to install our new

DSC_0156

LED ceiling lights. These replace the

DSC_0139

old lights.  Looking good!

  Okay...no more work today!

  Time for some fun.  We picked up Randy and Pam and headed for

DSC_0143

The Rattlesnake Saloon.  This is a great little burger spot that is built

at the bottom of a hill in a

DSC_0148

cave.

We shared

eyes and tails (fried jalapenos and green beans), before ordering burgers and salads.

A great evening with

friends after a busy day in Red Bay.

    I love the new ceiling lights, too! Do you know if they are widely available?
