Todays location is Tecumseh , Ontario , Canada .
Just when we thought we were going to have a slow relaxing day, it didn't happen.
We enjoyed our breakfast and made plans to finish some chores that were neglected while we worked on our son's Christmas display. When Kathy turned on her computer it kept going into error mode. Tried to Escape, use the Function Keys it told us, nothing would happen. Shut it down a number of times, thinking it would right its own wrong. "NOT"! It kept locking up as soon as it was restarted. Can't go without such an important research tool around here.
Pulled all the wires off the computer to take it to the techs in the little town of Essex. Kathy always feels like I just took her machine off Life Support when she sees me do that. We get to Essex and everybody must be having problems because they have added extra shelves in the retail section of the shop, just for computers to repair. They figure it'll probably be ready late Saturday afternoon.
Yesterday we had dropped-off the truck for an oil-change, tire-rotation, brake-inspection and other warranty work. So on our return from Essex we stopped to pick it up. Wow that's an easy way to lighten the bank account.
By the time we got home it was lunch time. Then we recieved a call from our RV parts supplier, saying they had the proper AC covers for our trailer in. Off to Amherstburg to pick up our new AC covers. On the way home we stopped at the storage yard and installed them. This time they fit perfectly. No hot air balloons mounted to the top of our trailer. Now we just have to check on it from time to time. but it's ready for winter.
Once we got home I set up the Laptop for Kathy to use. We had dinner and still managed to complete our chores that we had planned on doing at the start of the day. Not a bad day with an extra 100 miles of unexpected site seeing thrown in for good measure.
It's about time.
