HI All: Well, we got up and had the Motor home at the garage at 0758 and I signed in. The took the coach in to the bay at about 0830 with Pharaoh locked in the bathroom on a pillow. We left for breakfast. They had our cell phone. Ate breakfast at Denney's. Very good, Then Amy asked the waitress where the mall was, and wonders of wonders, she knew, so off we went. It was so easy to find?? Spent a bunch of hours in there. I even had to buy a couple pair of smaller levi's. Seems the one's I have have stretched out a little. Then we found a WalMart for several more hours of walking around and leaving a bundle. Then we found a Barnes and Noble book store and looked around in there for a while. I found a book I liked and sat down and read till about 1500 and we left. Did buy the book. Got the the garage at about 1520 and they sent us to the area they are working on the Motor Home to talk to the man working on it. Found that he had fixed the slide out problem. It was a blown diode. (Found out where it is hid also). But the jack worked just fine for him from the first time he tried them. They did not work for me at the park this morning, nor did they work when I first got to the garage. So, don't know what is wrong there. They worked just fine here at the park when we returned here. Sure hope that gremlin is gone. The dash blower motor problem turned out to be a shorted wire under the dash, and a blown 30 amp fuse for the high speed part of the blower. That fuse in an in line fuse that you have to know is there.It's not located with all the other fuses in the fuse box. The squealing fan belt turned out to be my alternator, so they found one here in billings but couldn't get it installed today, so have to go back in the morning, and he'll install it. Shouldn't take more than an hour, as it is located at an easy place to get at. So we plan to get on the road as soon as we settle up with them at the garage and get to Great Falls, MT where Bob and Dorene are waiting. Sure will be glad to get back together and get on with the trip. I have an extended warranty for the Motor Home and it is supposed to cover some things. It does cover jack, slide outs and ins, and the alternator, but don't know how much. It it is like the generator problem we had a while back they only approved $500, and guess what my deductible is?? right, $500. Don't care, just want to get going..
Well, it must be 5 O'clock some where now.
Semper Fi
Don, Amy & Pharaoh...
