Best in Class

 I would like to talk about RV dealers. I hate RV dealers! But we have found a really good one! We got the motor home from National Indoor RV Center in Las Vegas. We purchased the motor home on December 15th. They had a hard time getting the title to us so when we registered it in South Dakota there was a $940.00 fine for registering after 45 days. Peggy notified the dealer and they said they would reimburse us the fine. Now, that is a good dealer. I
 got a check in the mail a week after we sent them the proof of the fine. I Love NIRVC. 

In all our travels we found a really good RV repair shop in Mesa, AZ. We had to get a slide replaced in the old RV. Arizona RV services did a great job on the new slide. So I would make the them the best repair shop.

The worst RV dealer is General RV. We had a real hard time with them. I would not recommend anybody buying an RV or doing any service with them!

We got our outdoor lighting fixed. The company put a dimmer switch on non dimmer lights. So that burned out most of them. Now we have a regular switch on them and they are working great. 

We took the motor home out for a test drive with the car in tow. It worked great. Here is Peggy driving for the first time. I bought some valve stem extenders to put on the back duallys. But I got the wrong ones, so I had to order ones for 22.5 tires. I hope they get here before we leave next Sunday.
Here I'm changing the vent on the black tank to a solar powered vent. We think this will help on keeping the black tank stink out of the RV. Keep your fingers crossed! I hate going on the roof.

Mike and Heather came over in their sand rail. But later they came back with a flat rear tire. Bummer. But a little help from their neighbor and a couple of beers we got them home.


Some friends we met in Tombstone a couple of years ago came over Sunday. Patti and Joel. We had a good time talking to them. They're here all week. 


We went downtown to the Prison Hill Brewery to have dinner. The food was OK. The beer was good.

Slowing Down Here

 It's starting to slow down here. Almost all the Canadians have left for the great north. They only get to stay for 182 days, then go back north. Golf on Tuesday is done but the men's league is still playing on Thursday mornings. 

Here we are at the Yuma Market Place and it will be closing soon too.


I got a new gadget. It goes in the data port on the motor home and reports all the engine data to a Samsung tablet. It's pretty cool, right up my alley. Just something to play with.



This is the screen on the tablet that I built to read the Blue Fire data. This will be in the cab to monitor the engine. Fun stuff.


We had a little corn hole tournament at Brad and Sandi's place in the park. I suck at corn hole.


 Peggy got some new pictures of the new RV on our lot. We are starting to get ready to start our trip for the summer. We have most of our reservations made already. The final destination is Stone Mountain State park in Atlanta for Eggtoberfest. Then, race back to Yuma for the winter.

Beautiful flowers in Mexico with Trump's wall in the background. We went over to get me a new pair of sunglasses. My old ones were 10 years old and I love my new ones.

My new glasses work good and I can see much better now.

I cooked some chicken and brussel sprouts on the Mini-Max. I marinated the chicken in milk and dill pickle juice. It was pretty good. If you leave a comment I will send you the recipe.
