Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario,
Canada.
Even though we didn’t have
to go anywhere first thing this morning when we saw the clock showing just
before 8:00 we knew that we had to get up. This is something we never had to
think of while living in our RV the
need to get dressed before breakfast. Now we had to get dressed before going
down to the Hotel
Lobby for our Free Continental Breakfast. Not being
in the rush we were yesterday we were able to relax, make our Toast while we had our Juice and then we filled our Coffee cups before heading back to our
room.
Back in our room we took
our morning meds before getting down to business. My first order was to recall
the people who had left messages while we were out yesterday afternoon. I tried
calling Stephanie at Leisure Trailer but
she was outside with another customer so I left a message for her to call me
back. The next was a call to our Insurance.
I would attempt to leave four messages through the course of the day.
Around 10:00 as we were getting
caught up on our morning reading on the Computers
we received a call from the Front Desk
informing us that we needed to let the cleaning staff in to clean our room. The
excuse was they needed to clean the Shower because a week of build up was too
hard to clean off. We may be temporarily living in a Brick Building but we are still functioning as RVers. We make our own bed, we use our bath towels more then once
and we know how to wipe down our own shower. Maybe they think we are emptying the
room of its STUFF that we don’t want
or need.
Shortly after that
Stephanie called us back. One of the things on our list was we felt there was No Insulation in the Cap because when opening the closet in
the winter it was cold and opening it in the summer it was hot. When they
removed the Nose Cap they found all
kinds of Insulation and the tech said if there was anymore he wouldn’t be able
to get the Cap back on. Stephanie took
pictures and said she would E-mail
them to me later.
When we arrived here on
Monday when we went to put our food in the small Fridge it was turned off. Not
wanting anything frozen to defrost I turned the control all the way up. When Kathy
went to make lunch today she found Frozen
Meat, Eggs and Fruit. I forgot to turn the Fridge down a bit. Needless to say,
everything but the frozen Meat found
itself in a garbage bag that would later be put in the bin. We had Peanut Butter and Jam sandwiches for lunch today.
The only reason we were
staying in our room most of the day was waiting for the Insurance to call us back. At 3:00 I made a final call where I spoke
with the Receptionist telling her we
had a life and that I will call back tomorrow because we were leaving for the
day.
We drove over to the nearby
Walmart
where we walked around for exercise, found a new pair of walking shoes for
Kathy as well as a couple of snacks. Since it was now after 4:00 and this was Wednesday
we went to Burger
King where we ordered a couple of
Whopper Combos for our supper.
Our next stop was back at Wildwood Golf
and RV Park. Returning to our site really felt weird with it being
so empty. I needed to pick up my Toolbox
as well as my Electric Drill and Jigsaw. I’ll be doing a furniture
repair for our friend Kathie sometime this weekend. After watering our plants
and grass Kathy and I went over to say hello to our old neighbour Ted. When we
arrived at Ted’s trailer Larry was there visiting him for Happy Hour. The site we are presently on used to be Larry and
Nichols old site. We visited for nearly a half hour answering their questions
about the repairs that are being done to our Home.
It was past 5:30 when we
left the park and headed to visit our son Kevin and daughter-in-law Melissa in Amherstburg.
Even though we arrived slightly later than normal we still had a fun filled
visit. I even mentioned how heading back to the Hotel
this evening was going to be like when we lived in our House and then the Apartment taking the Front Road through LaSalle then taking the Expressway.
It was nearly 8:30 when we
said our Good Nights and headed for Home.
(Did you catch that?) Just as we were entering the town of McGregor that I realized I was
headed to our empty site at Wildwood Park. That probably added about
fifteen minutes to our trip back to the Hotel.
Checking the phone for
messages when we got in someone from the Insurance Company called
trying to answer a question that I asked over two weeks ago. I’ll definitely be
calling them in the morning.
When I checked my E-mail this evening I found the
pictures that Stephanie sent. If the new Cap
has already been installed I’m going to Scream. The front of the closet
is insulated with cheap insulation, but looking at the sides of the closet and
cabinet there is No Insulation. I’ll be calling Stephanie again
in the morning. Thanks for
following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Joke of the Day
I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel
universe.
Were you both sleeping when you headed for home? We often almost miss a turn headed somewhere but the other one is on the ball. It is why we tease and say 'see, you do need me!'
ReplyDeleteWe had the same problem with our closet. I use to leave the door open a little to let heat out or in depending on the season. I don't know if you follow this blog but they just had major work done on their 5th wheel and there is a picture of their cap and how the insulation was upgraded. http://rv-dreams.typepad.com/rvdreams_journal/page/2/ July 21 post shows pictures.
ReplyDeleteThat's so irritating!! Seems to me I never got the repair guys to actually fix the entire problem. They always just went half way. Good luck ... I hope they step up and fix it like they should!!
ReplyDeleteIt seems it is always problematic working with RV service places:)
