Of course I haven't caught up yet. I'm about 130 messages behind and it'll probably be a lot more before I get caught up.
I got the front air conditioner in the motorhome fixed today. Turned out it was a lot easier than it could have been. The problem was the fan motor was frozen. I had opened it up to troubleshoot about a year ago and it was frozen solid. I squirted a little fluid film on the bearing area before i closed it up and proceeded to ignore it for a year. Got up on the roof this morning (before it got waaayyyy too hot) and opened it up. Damn if the fan didn't turn freely. Fluid Film is a wonderful lubricant. Went down and flipped a few switches so the front a/c was powered up instead of the back one. Flipped the on/off switch and it started right up. Man it's nice to have one of the major jobs off my "to do" list. If it cools off just a little I'll get to troubleshooting the generator. I am pretty sure it's the control board but, am not even close to sure. One thing I am not is a "parts changer." Especially not when the control board is $350.
Anybody knows anyone that wants a nice motorhome, I got one for sale, $13,000. NADA says somewhere between $15,000 and $17,500.
Ok, see you all in a while. Kaz, keeping you in my prayers. 2legs, enjoy your trip and don't let the ahole get you down. Love you all.

Knowing her just a lil' bit, kinda feel sorry fer da bears! At least she'd have sum nice rugs fer her winter season up yonder...
Kay, don't ya dare withdraw from us! Is it your recovery or sumpin else? As ya know, we can handle ahellava lot on these ol' well worn porch planks.
We're here fer ya...
Besides, cougars purrrr and are more cuddly dan bears <what litter box>!
Well, others have solved your poser. But, I must say dat dat's da sweetest smile I've seen from our dear Keena!
Wow, Matt, congrats on the (nearly) self repairing AC unit! Now if the generator would just "re-generate".
I'm with you on the "just replace it 'till it's fixed" method. Those of us on limited budgets have learned to start with the simple, cheap fixes and work our way backwards to the 'spensive schtuff. Here's hopin' that's not where your journey ends.

TY, kind Sir!
Well I have finally landed on the back porch! I have been on ECF as a stalker (mostly) since 2012, I recently retired and now have some time on my hands for more than just stalking, although stalking is time consuming. So HOWDY Y'ALL!
((((((((Kay)))))))))))))) @oldbroad I'm sorry you're feeling so down sweetie. I wondered when you didn't answer the phone earlier. Love you soooooooooo much. Please don't pull away. Talk to me, or someone. We can't fix it, but you know it makes you feel better. if nuttin else you can rant to a person.......we can take it!!
ok, I forgot already, what was it that I said sounded good?? hehehe Yanno it stinks....... 4 hrs just aint that far at all......til ya don't have a car. Would be so wonderful if some of us Tx folks could get together, even for a weekend.It is really good stuff... perfect after being out in the yard cutting grass and whatnot.
*pouts* We gonna hafta get you a bus pass, Darlin'?
Good luck and be careful, Hun. Hope that they're able to get ya all fixed up.
They won't get me fixed up, there's nothing they can do to fix......just manage. They're going to try some steroid shots in the spaces behind/between the vertebrae this time and see if that helps some. I'll give it a shot. They did put me back on Vicodin and changed the muscle relaxer, so we'll see what that helps at all.
Works for me!! No more sweepin.......just rake it once in awhile!

Those look great and I love the smile!!! It reaches your eyes!!Guess what I got that has nothing to do with vaping?
oh kewl! Hope the generator turns out to be just as easy
well glad you got something better, just hate ya had to spend the $ before ya traded it in.
(((((((((roto))))))))) good to see ya sweetie! I'm sorry you're so down. Are you workin this week or off? Have you been getting rest on your time off? Have you been taking your full time off? How's yur brother.......how's yur furbabies?? Whatchya been cookin?? Love you oodles!!
have seen ya on the front porch.........welcome to the back porch! We can talk about anything here. You'll find a lot of the same folks on this one
Well High guys, we are at the last rest area before we start going steeply up over the pass. Been going up for quite aways but now we go up from about 2500' to 4500 ft and then drop down to just above sea level. Every thing is going good so far. Been a little warm but that is about to change on the other side of the mountains. 80 here 65 on the other side. But wanted to say HI.
We are almost considering staying here for a while. The first 3 hours aren't too bad on the freeway but the last 2 hours of driving going up and down 2 lane road then the last hour of that was on a road also 2 lane with rocks going straight up on one side and river on the other with no shoulder. Really wears me out. About 2 1/2 hours to go. Not sure if I should keep going or get some shut eye. I hate driving at night but this is a real quiet rest area about 4 other cars here and some of those are the old farts sitting around giving out free coffee.
Vape hard before ya get there Legs
.... Everytime I get 5 miles from the "top",.. until I'm about 5 miles down the other side, .. my mod has a "gurgling fit". Weird what altitude does to a mod
