4/4/07 Ashley Calls....

First thing this morning we heard from Ashley, the dispatcher from Pittman Flowers. They want us to take the rig to a professional and have it cleaned to see if the oil can be removed. That certainly sounds like a fair request to us.

I got on the computer, thank heaven for these things, and I called a local RV dealer. He said he couldn't do anything to help us but could recommend someone in Lumberton who should be able to. I called the fellow and he said, "Sure, I can get the oil off and your rig will look like new when we're done with it." Now that sounds good but Bob has his doubts. Now the bad part. He can't get us in until a week from this Thursday. That means we'll have to hang around Beaumont longer than we expected. Not what we wanted to hear but we'll have to deal with it.

So here we'll sit for the next nine days.

Bob did take the truck today to see if our windshield could be repaired instead of replaced. It can be! He has an appointment later today.

We spent the afternoon watching TV, spending time on our computers, reading, anything to pass the time. Its cool outside, and windy, so we just want to hang out here.

Bob took the truck for its appointment with the glass man and he did a really good job fixing it. You can hardly see where the "cross" was. He said he couldn't guarantee that it wouldn't spread but he did tell Bob that he hasn't had one come back because of doing so. So we'll watch this pinpoint of a mark we have on our windshield and make sure the windows are never all the way up in the heat! This repair cost us $40.00. We didn't think that was too bad at all.
