Getting things back in trim

[aadler]

We made it into Deming at just about the time the cooler weather passed, so lately the temperature highs have been in the 70s and the overnight low stays above freezing. That’s good enough.

I dealt with the issues previously detailed in this post. There was an RV repair shop highly recommended in the area; I checked there, found that the main guy was pretty much swamped with work, but he asked for photos of the fan that needed a new roof vent cover, and — on hearing about the electrical problem I’d had on one side — recommended that I check the ground fault switch.

On returning to our rig, 1) I found that resetting the ground fault switch settled our electrical issues, and 2) while photographing the exterior of the fan mounting, I saw that installing the vent cover was a matter of removing/replacing a few screws. When I got the photos to the tech, he identified the cover needed and said he had one in stock. As I told him, “You’re so good, you did away with all the work I’d have brought you!” Bought the new cover, put it on after Susan and I got back to our RV, and that was that.

After the amount we’d had to spend on repairs last week, it was nice to be able to make a fix for less than $80.

Today, we made it back to Mass for the first time in weeks. We’ll see what comes after that.
