With my work in Minneapolis complete, it was time to head south to Missouri. Our next destination was near St Clair, MO where some more family lives. The drive south was fairly warm and by mid-afternoon I was feeling sleepy. I had already stopped for a couple of cat-naps so it was time to call… [Read More]
Far East Trip… Minneapolis
The trip is going just swell! I’m currently sitting at an RV park in a Minneapolis suburb and the weather has been very nice. There aren’t many RV parks in this area – at least that are convenient to the office in Eagan which is one of the suburbs on the south side of Minneapolis…. [Read More]
Oil Leak Not Leaking Oil Anymore
That’s right! The oil leak that I mentioned here and here is no longer leaking! This oil leak seemed to be coming from the right side of Missy’s engine. The follow up to the second post referenced above is that I eventually learned that the disconnected hose was an air supply. So, certainly not the source… [Read More]
2018 Far East Trip
The 2018 Far East Trip is officially “ON”!! In general, New Mexico to Minnesota for a family wedding and some time at the home office. Then to near St. Louis to visit more family. Then, who knows… Maybe to Ohio to visit more family… Or… maybe I’ll have had enough of the far east and… [Read More]
Rain, Rain and Monsoon Rain!
Lots of rain at the Hacienda! This is what the southwest calls the “monsoon season” and it is sure is!! The weather guessers typically predict no rain – or a very low chance of it – and partly cloudy every day. Every day big thunderstorms build in the early afternoon and drop rain. Sometimes LOTS… [Read More]
Promised exterior photos…
A week or so ago I promised some exterior photos of Missy’s new air conditioners/heat pumps and vents. As promised…
Hot Enough?? How about some COLD air??
Continuing the cold air saga that I began in this post… The installation of the rear Air Conditioner/Heat Pump and Fan-Tastic vent was a duplication of the front. Except the second time around was much smoother and there was no learning curve – just repeat what worked. I purchased a set of these Coleman 8530-3481… [Read More]
Roof Mounted RV Air Conditioning
Most RV’s and motorhomes have self-contained air conditioning units mounted on the roof. Missy has a BIG air conditioning system that is powered by the engine (alternator and compressor) but that does me no good while parked. The other negative about her existing system is that it consumes a huge amount of space in the… [Read More]
Satellite TV – Antenna Installation
I’ve been without satellite TV since I sold my last motorhome – JBAM – in November 2016. That has been very good for me. Of course, I have been able to receive over the air TV in some places. I also have a reasonably good movie & TV show digital library. However; after watching each… [Read More]
The Windsock Flies!
I have some amazing friends!! I don’t talk about them enough but I am VERY blessed! Three of those friends brought their RV’s up to the Hacienda recently for a weekend visit. Apparently, this was to celebrate some important event – I’m not sure what that was all about. I’ll call them “Dave”, “Ann”, and “Cathy”… [Read More]
