Day 261: Homeless, Day 3

We once again left our RV at Camping World and drove over to my parent’s house.

After another day of cleaning, we took the RV back to storage.  Here the old RV says goodbye to my parent’s house:

We picked up our RV.  Camping World refused to replace the inverter they destroyed, first blaming me for the issue and then suggesting I lie to the inverter manufacturer, say it spontaneously broke, and ask for a new one under warranty.

Sleazy.

Good Shabbos from BLM land just south of Las Vegas!

Day 260: Homeless, Day 2

Once again we dropped off the new RV at Camping World’s service department and headed over to my parent’s house.  Zayde realized that B is the Engineer in the family, so here he is showing B how to etch a PCB:

Last night I discovered that Camping World had destroyed our inverter by plugging in the RV and turning on the main breaker before turning off the inverter breaker.  Hopefully they will pay for the damage they’ve done.  We’re once again overnighting in their lot as they have a third day of repairs to do on the new RV.

Day 259: Cleaning out the old RV

The last two days of Passover were nice and thankfully not as hot as the beginning of Passover. Last night we said goodbye to MKT’s parking lot and headed back to BLM land.

This morning we dropped off our new RV for the day at Camping World for warranty repair for components that were DOA when we purchased the new RV.  We packed what we needed for the day and headed over to my parent’s house.

Today we retrieved the old RV from storage and scrubbed it inside and out and posted it as for sale to Craig’s List and RV Trader.  She cleans up pretty good:

Toinight we’re camped in the Camping World parking lot.  We will be here for at least another day for repairs on the new RV.

Day 256: Chol Hamoed, Day 4

Note: this post was written after the conclusion of Passover.

Shabbos on BLM land was a bit warm but nice.  We would have preferred to be in-town for Shabbos Chol Hamoed, but the new RV is too heavy to legally be parked curbside on public streets, and we didn’t want to overstay our welcome at MKT.

To keep the RV cool, I had installed awning track on the two sunward slides to accept the two halves of the sunshade we bought in Quartzsite.  Here they are in their tracks, but after the stakes that hold them away from the RV have been removed:

This afternoon, we headed back to MKT for the last two days of Passover.
