Another nice, laidback day . . .

Once again, another laidback day.

Nick and I spent a good while phoning and emailing this afternoon working on his battery problem.

Sometimes it’s not even easy to nail down the location of a part on the RV. The manual will say one thing, and then, not finding it there, you call the factory and they tell you, well, check here or there.

So the factory is not always sure either. I’ve been told that where something is located can even depend on who installed it. One guy likes to mount it in one location, but the guy working on the next rig on the line is too big to squeeze in there, so he mounts it somewhere else.

Just keeps life interesting.

A little after 1 pm I put Mister outside on his leash and drove down to the office to get a new barcode card, after we got locked out yesterday.

Turns out we weren’t the only ones to have a problem. Apparently the gate operator was not supposed to change the code this week since the park closes this Monday, but he did, and then left for the season. So there is no one manning the gate anymore since no new rigs are coming in.

It’s starting to get real quiet around here. Three more rigs, including the monkey people, pulled out this afternoon, so things are really thinning out. It will be interesting to see how many will be leaving on Monday like us.

About 4:30p I drove down to the Exxon station by the Interstate to buy some Powerball tickets. It’s up to 245 million dollars tonight so I thought I’d take a chance. Crossing my fingers.

Thought for the Day:

Remember, wind is just air, but pushier.
