Alone Again . . .
Well, our next door neighbors left early this morning so hopefully we won’t have anyone park nearby before we leave on Sunday. I know they were having trouble keeping their AC’s running in their 5’er since they only had 30 amps. They were interested in my AC breakout wire, and said they were going to try it on their rig.
A little after 1pm, I went down to the office to pick up my Amazon package. I had ordered this120 VAC digital meter so that I can monitor my genset output while we’re on the road.
Digital LED Panel AC 110/220V Meter
Although I can see whether or not my genset is running from the dashboard when I driving, I can’t actually tell if the Transfer Switch is letting genset power into the coach. And with the recent problems I’ve been having with my Transfer Switch, I want to know this before we realize that the coach has gotten up to 85 degrees behind us.
So I’m going to mount this meter on the cabinet over my head and plug it into the outlet in that cabinet. That should take care of that problem.
Later in the afternoon, I got out our Karcher pressure washer for some cleaning chores. I had planned on cleaning off the grilles and grease tray from our toaster oven, and I also wanted to spray clean some of the blowby oil off the plastic front bumper of the truck.
But when I perused the 11 page rulebook we were given when we checked in here, it said ‘No Washing of Vehicles or Rigs’. But there was nothing in the rules about not washing kitchen appliances, so I just hung the grilles on the front bumper of the truck and went at it.
I can’t help it if the bumper got clean too. After all, I had to hang them somewhere.
I’ve found that my pressure washer comes in handy for washing and waxing the rig, where it’s allowed, and does a really good job.
Tomorrow we’re going to make one last trip into Memphis to have linner at Charles Vergos’ Rendezvous, the recent winner of my Best Ribs in Memphis contest. Looking forward to it.
