First of all, last night was a horrible night, thunder, lightening, rain and hail which lasted almost 4 hours.  During this period of time we got 1 inch of rain and visible hail on the ground.  What a racket it made, our furry friend, Bruce, all he wanted was to hide from it. 

He kept Vadie up most of the night, I myself slept through some of it.  The other furry friends, I don’t think they really cared at all, they slept through it all.

Needless to say, it was very humid here today.

I went outside to finish the wiring for the mirrors, then installed everything else that I could.  I have the GPS located behind the fibreglass cover in front, and it works well. 

We cleaned the rest up today, and getting ready to go home tomorrow.

John came home early this morning then went to bed.  When he got up, we unhitched the trailer and put a new washer on the hitch, as it was coming loose.  Since we unhitched the trailer, we decided to go dump the black and grey water as well.

This was a good run for us, since we had done so much work to the coach, it was good to know that things worked properly, gosh nice having remote control mirrors.

As this area will not have illuminescent, I will still paint it to make it look like the rest of the dash.

We went out to Bing’s Restaurant #1, for Chinese food – excellent meal at great prices.  After dinner, the coach and trailer was washed and filled the fresh water up too.

Then we relaxed and talked more about old cars and buses – apparently there are a lot of rallies near here that one could attend to see the older cars and trailers etc.
