I guess it’s time I update you on my going and comings.
In February I left my little home in northern California just as the rain was coming. I headed to Yuma where I spent some time out in the desert and the Escapee RV Park in town where several of my friends were. I had some work done on the rv, oil change and emergency brake replaced and transmission and differential serviced. The rv now has almost 100,000 miles and it was time to have some high mileage maintenance done to it. Also bought 4 new tires for the rear. While the rv was up on the lift at the transmission shop I had a chance to inspect the tires and saw that one of the rear tires had a slash in the sidewall and two of the others had cracking from weather and age.
One of the other things that needed to be done on the rv is getting the fuel gauge repaired, the gauge hasn't worked since 2018. My wonderful mechanic in Yuma traced the problem down to the gauge in the dashboard. So Carlos found a replacement and ordered it, but because of Covid-19 shipping has taken a long time. Such a long time that as the weather in Yuma warmed up I went west to El Cajon, CA, where it was cooler, to wait for the delivery. While in El Cajon I was able to catch up with my daughter and do a day trip to The Flower Fields in Carlsbad. And before you ask, no the gauge hadn't come in yet.

Two weeks later it was time to move on so I drove up to Pahrump, NV where a friend was. I've been in Pahrump for 2 weeks. We've had some beautiful weather, snow in the mountains while it was nice in the valley.
Thanks to my daughter, I was able to get the J & J covid-19 vaccine while in El Cajon and it's been 3 weeks and I am feeling fine. My arm was sore for a bit but that's all. Still taking precautions by wearing a mask and washing hands and only eat at restaurants with outside seating.
Also am still driving the rv without a working gas gauge. That's a bit of a hassle as I have to rely on my trip meter. I have to plan out where to get gas, ahead of time, with Google map and the GasBuddy app. I hope to get that fixed in the fall when I get back to Yuma.
But, now, as it begins to warm up here my thought turn to moving on down the road.
I hope you, my readers, are safe and healthy.
Until next time.
