Busy Week

Living in campers is certainly a challenge. This week was not an exception. On Sunday and Monday the generator died in the middle of the night and we had to go outside in the night to start. Monday was the plumbing leak (which Rod thought he fixed but it is still leaking). Tuesday after I got home from work I tried to start the generator. Because of metal fatigue, the part holding the pull cord together broke. So I couldn't start the generator. Rod was able to repait it when he got home. Wednesday morning we realized we were out of propane (which means NO heat). We had all the propane tanks filled on Wednesday - (5) 20 gallon tanks, (2) 30 gallon tanks, and (1) 100 gallon tank for $187. Guess we will see how long that will last. The lows are getting into the low/mid 30's at nights. As for the generator - Rod hooked up our 2nd one that didn't run and has both tanks feeding the 1 engine. He also bought a fuel filter for it. Since he did all this work on Tuesday we are not having any more brown outs and it has run all night.
