Looks like my break is going to be extended.

Was supposed to do my taxes today, the tax lady cancelled and rescheduled for Monday.

I've been trying to get through to an RV dealer in TN all week to get my generator installed and a rooftop unit on the van. Apparently their swamped. I've called them a half dozen times and they were supposed to call back...finally got a call today. I guess there was a lot of hail damage over there recently and their backed up pretty bad.

I finally found a place here that can get the rooftop unit I want and he has an independent shop that he works with for installations (although that shop hasn't returned my calls either...lol). I ordered the rooftop from this guy today, should be in midweek and hopefully the shop will get me in after that to do the install.

Looks like I came home a week too early. Glad the freight is picking up!

Guido, it won't fit on their alignment rack, the wheelbase is too long....but i will be getting the tire repalced there after the alignment is done this morning at the "Big "O" tire shop down the road from the other place...thats where i am right now...it is costing me a little bit more then back in Monroe at "joes"...but id have to buy a used tire to get home and then a tank of gas...so in the long run its just cheaper to get it done here...

On a good note, had a great rack of ribs at "Raffertys" of Louisville last night.....slept good last night and after the truck is done this morning, ill go back in service and then have a good breakfest...

You all be safe and have a good weekend...

Dennis,

There is an excellent BBQ place not far at all from where you are. It's called Marks Feed Store. You will not be disapointed. Johnny English (some things just stick) turned me on to it, Jenny and Nick have also been there... Excellent food!
