Car Repair Day
Today entailed finding the GMC dealer and getting ready to sit half the day at the dealership while they checked out the AC in the car. Because we had to take it in for the AC, we had decided to get the hoses checked out and the oil changed.
To our pleasure, they brought us back to the RV to wait for it to be completed. Shortly they called with the news that the brakes were near their end of life and the emergency brake was gone. The noise in the AC was from debris that they windshield repairman let drop into the fan area. I think there was something about cleaning out something or other also.
So, our $700 "air conditioner check" was a bit over the top. HA HA. We were glad that it was all done and we are ready to roll for the next 5,000 miles.
After we got the car back, we had the arduous task of shopping for groceries at Wal-Mart. It just wears you out. All that double-handling is a PAIN. But, it was done and we are good to go for a little more than a week, except for items like milk and bread.
I fixed left-overs for dinner. No sooner had we gotten that done when the skies opened up with severe storms. I haven't seen skies like this in years. We had some hail, of course. I was so nervous they'd get big enough to crack that new windshield. But, alas, the stones were only pea-sized.
We took our screaming feet to bed as early as possible as it's up early in the morning to get our chores done before heading to North Dakota.
