Hello from Rockport, TX

I will put a photo on in the next couple of days. It's been too rainy/cloudy to take any photos!

Nov 19 – 25, Mon – Sun ... On Monday, we had an appointment at Camper Clinic to have the motorhome refrigerator and large patio awning looked at. The refrigerator seemed to have a seal issue on the freezer side and the awning was not rolling up properly. They ordered another door from Dometic so we have to go back there and have it installed on the day we leave Rockport. They told us the awning was missing some parts and that was causing it to roll up improperly. It’s now working like it’s supposed to. We thought we had a three year warranty on parts and labor with the Dometic products but discovered that it only covered parts after two years. We were 11 days beyond two years so had to pay their ridiculous $99 hourly rate. Wow!! After an email to Dometic, they will take care of the installation of the freezer door and I’m in the process of writing a letter to the warranty department about the awning issue. We’ll see what happens. Later that evening we went to Bill and Gloria’s for spaghetti & Monday night football.
On Thursday we had Thanksgiving with them at their clubhouse dinner, the Circle W RV park. We even went back at 6p.m. for leftovers. The weather has turned wintery, i.e. cool and damp. We decided to skip the ‘Black Friday’ sales (there’s no sale that’s worth getting to a store a 4 or 5 am!) We ordered a GPS online through Costco and skipped the mad rush at the stores. Dixie did a couple of haircuts on Friday.
Bill & Gloria come over for dinner on Saturday.
Sunday evening we headed into town for a Chinese buffet with Bill & Gloria. They are headed back to MT on Mon.
