RV Repair

Good news: The RV repair shop was expecting us and got the motorhome in on time this morning and diagnosed part of our problem.
Bad news: We need 2 new jacks.
Good news: They are under warranty.
Bad news: Atwood doesn't have any in stock - they need to make them - 2-3 week delivery time!
Badder news: "We forgot to tell you this - the warranty only applies to parts, not labor - that will be $300, please!"
We will have them delivered to a repair shop somewhere in our future travels. Once they are put on, then they can figure out what caused them to fail - a computer problem perhaps?
Could be worse!

We will head to Glacier National Park early tomorrow morning. We are excited! We talked with our friends, Mike & Lorraine, and they gave us many tips on what to see and do - it's one of their favorite spots!
We bought "Bear Spray" and bells at the sporting goods store today - $46.95 each for the spray!!! We certainly are not planning on any back country hiking but want to hike popular trails to lakes and waterfalls and figured we should be prepared. The bear spray is a super, duper pepper spray that sprays 30-35 feet - comes with a "holster" so you can keep it handy! The directions say not to use it if you are "down wind." Just my luck the bear would be on the wrong side of me! The bells are like big "jingle bells" that you attach to your clothing so they make a lot of noise while you walk. Hope we see some bears - but, from a distance, like while driving in the car!!
