Disaster struck this afternoon. When we arrived and attempted to deploy the satellite antenna. It stalled and we have no satellite TV. A fate worse than death. We won't have it until the end of the month.
We got up at a reasonable hour just prior to 7. Wynotts were already gone. The took off silently just about the time we got up. We hooked up and skid out of our spot by 9:30. We headed down hwy 108 which turned into 120. Hwy 120 to 99 to Dillard Road. Then Jackson Hwy to Grant Line to Prairie City to 50
Arriving at Ponderosa around 12:30. We got set up in E4. So far we have stayed in E4, 5 and 6. That's when the disaster struck. We were on the phone to Winegard. They attempted to troubleshoot the problem but to no avail. Of course Steve could not find the proof of purchase. For some reason Steve is unable to keep organized in the trailer. We had the receipt of everything else but the satellite work. We tried calling the sensor but after a few misfires we got through and I think we will be OK. They will replace the unit under warranty then we will go down to Indio at the end of the month and have them re-install the base unit. Disaster averted.
Then my son called and told me how pissed he was that while we were gracious enough to give him the car we should if had the decency to make sure it was in running condition. I am so disappointed in him right now. Brita can have him. After that disappointing conversation we went to get a bite at the taqueria across from Walmart. We ran by Nikki's for a minute to pick up the mail. Then Save Mart and Ross. Finally back to the rig for TV and chilling.
One bright note of the day. We met some people at the rally who were planning on heading to Park Sierra. So I friended them on Facebook. She messaged me and invited us to dinner on the night we return to Coarsegold. So sweet. We have met so many nice people traveling. Getting hard to keep up with everyone.
