I see tents, so where’s the circus?
Today started out with me back hard at work fixing Nick’s tail light system. He’s such a slave driver. He just never lets up.
First thing we went back over to pick up a new tail light converter from the trailer supply place. The new one looked like a direct replacement for the old one, so it should work OK.
After stopping off to put some air in my truck tires, I started pulling all of the old wiring harness out and replacing it with the new stuff.
After looking over the new converter I saw it would be quicker to also replace the bumper plug and connector too, so it was back to the trailer supply store for a 2nd time.
Coming back to the park, I drove past the 50’ x 70’ tent that Nick had installed to give us more room for the evening get-togethers at the rally. This really should be nice.
After getting everything hooked up & checked out, we decided to wait til tomorrow to tie it all up.
So about 5:30, Nick, Terry, and I headed over to a nearby Bob Evans restaurant for a dinner of…breakfast.
About 6:15, while we were still there, Michele Henry from Phoenix Commercial Paint called and said she had another cargo bay door ready and would bring it back later.
About 7:30, while I was waiting for Michele, Jan called from Houston and brought me up to date on all the goings-on down there. I sure will be glad when she gets back on Sunday.
About 8:15 Michele showed up and we got the new door installed. And it looks great. 2 doors down, 5 to go.
After Michele left, I spent some time at Nick and Terry’s helping Terry with a computer problem, And while I was there, Al Hasselbart showed up and he, and Nick and I spent some time talking over old cars we had owned.
Then, a little before 10pm, my long day was starting to take its toll so I headed back to my rig.
More tomorrow…
