1029 September 1, 2023 Making The Best Of It
Another morning walk around a huge block in the industrial complex. Thanks, mom, for listening this morning <3
Tim went across the street to see where the RV might be. It was sealed behind the garage bay doors and no one was working on it. He decided to go in and talk with the service department. The turbo for the exhaust system is seized up. There were no replacements here in Edmonton. They found someone to rebuild the old one and they were offering a one-year warranty…in Alberta. The turbo would not be complete until next Friday. NO THANKS! A new turbo would have to come from Seattle. We authorized expedited shipping but because of the holiday weekend, no one was sure what that means. Hopefully we will get the turbo early next week and then they can install it. Maybe we will be here another week or so…
We were disheartened.
This afternoon, I was able to get an appointment to get my hair done. It was a nice treat and uplifting!
We went to the RV to get rid of all the spoiling food that we bought more than a week ago. The shop has been able to keep the fridge plugged in so at least all of our freezer food is okay.
This evening, I went out and bought a bottle of wine and a taco tray from Real Canadian Superstore. It was really good and plenty for both of us.
Tomorrow, we are going to drive back to Elk Island. We have made a reservation for a campsite and we will stay in the rooftop tent. It is something we enjoy and something to look forward to. The weather is supposed to be perfect. I started to get things packed and organized.
Sunday, we will return to this hotel and stay until the RV is right.
