The Big Move Is On . . .

I’ve started the process of moving everything over to the new blog site.

If the URL you’re using to access the blog is www.ourrvadventures.com, you will be taken to the new site automagically.

If you use the http://ourrvadventures.wordpress.com/ URL it will take you to the old site, but I will have a link there to take you to the new one.  Be sure you save that one for use from now on.

Unfortunately there is no way to transfer the Email subscription database from the old blog to the new one, so you will have to re-subscribe at the new site. Sorry ‘bout that.

About 1:15 Jan and I headed out for a Wal-Mart run, but getting out to the truck we found this waiting for us. Or rather me, since I had to change it.
 Flat Tire

I had the jack out, the tire off, and the spare dropped down in about 15 minutes. Then I spent the next 15 minutes trying to get the spare mounted on the front hub. On this truck the hub doesn’t stick out any further than the lug bolts, so you’ve got nothing to hang the wheel on so you can rotate it into position. And when I tried to use a crowbar to lift it into position, the crowbar kept sinking into the ground instead of lifting the wheel.

But finally I had the wheel in place and tighten down, and we were really to go in about 30 minutes. I didn’t rehang the flat tire because I’ve got a plug kit and I’m going to see if I can fix it myself. I didn’t see any obvious punctures, but I’ll air it up and see where the problem it.

After we got back from Wal-Mart, I completed the install of my LED fluorescent upgrade by finishing up the wiring.

LED Upgrade Finiah

The 3 additional sets I ordered should be in on Tuesday, so I’ll do the other lights then.

Around 8:30 Nick and Terry came over to check out how the new bulbs looked at night. Nick’s thinking about changing over some of his fluorescents too.
