Six days into our stay in Yreka we finally got our beloved truck’s gunnybag alternator fixed. We had the truck into the shop about 10 minutes before our 10:00 AM appointment for what was described to us as a two-hour job for a certified Ford mechanic. Some six hours later, we finally got the truck back and it seems to be okay. $735 worth of okay.
We stopped by the local Ace Hardware for some sheet metal screws to fix Peggy’s headboard light while in town and then we took Charlotte back to Waiiaka RV Park for the night. Peggy spent the late afternoon scrubbing splattered bugs from the front of the Barbarian Invader and did a terrific job right up to the end of her reach. We need some scaffolding or a work ladder to get the rest but the bottom third looks really shiny.
We are anxious to get moving early tomorrow so I dumped the holding tanks, disconnected from the local water supply and stowed our barbecue. Only power and cable to disconnect in the morning before we head into Oregon.
