Places to go

We have some "obligations" coming up on our social calendar ... things to do, places to go, people to see ... so we have decided to make the time to take care of some things that need to be done before our social calendar gets too busy.

We have been doing a lot of research about how to improve Bella's electrical system (additional batteries, inverter, what-have-you, etc.) and today spent time online and on the phone, getting directions, asking questions, and figuring out where to go.

Today we drove from NC to VA. We found an rv mechanic someone had recommended to us, to get an estimate for the work. We learned a lot by talking to him but it would take at least 3 days for him to get all the parts we need and then a couple more to get the work done, so with the weekend almost here, we just couldn't wait around, because remember we have things to do, places to go, people to see ...

Next we drove on to find the nearest Camping World. We spoke to them on the phone earlier and found out they had hookups (electric only) and we could park overnight to wait till the store opens in the morning. So that is where we came to spend the night.

Hopefully they will be able to get the electrical work done and also fix our generator.
