Sad that I will have to continue to climb a ladder and smash this topper into the coach the rest of the way to Arizona, I admit defeat. I send out messages for repair person suggestions in Benson.
Undeterred, Monte consults YouTube and discovers a couple with a problem similar to mine (an awning issue not the many others). He learns that my awning is really an Omega II (who knew?). Important awning fact: an Omega II has to be tightened on the LEFT arm.
Good naturedly, Monte excuses my gaff claiming that it was better we learn on the side that has no tension. Now that we have worked out all the hiccups, we are prepared to properly “using EXTREME caution” re-tension the spring. It works!
I am embarrassed to admit how many other “little” repairs Monte helps me with today. I am so grateful to have kind and handy friends like him! Thanks to Monte for still answering my text even after three days of torment!!
Austin. I am so jealous!

Wish you were here!!
Hey Lady ….
You certainly unleashed on every one a new mystery … did you or did you not trow away the antenna ? If you need more, in the garage are relics from Mr. Storm.
No, I put the antennae in a special spot in the tool box so it will be handy in case I ever need it again. I have learned my lesson about that. Thanks for the offer though!
You keep learning how to repair things on the RV you can open your own shop one of these days. :>)))) Glad you got the major problems fixed and things are working well without anyone getting hurt. Keep em comin and have a great time I know you girls are sleeping better now too. :>)))) GOD BLESS

I am afraid it is an unwelcome education – but necessary if I want to drive my house all over to meet kind people and have fun adventures so I will not complain 🙂
You are right, we are both much happier with more things working. Love to you guys!
Thanks for reminding me to flush and sanitize my fresh water tank Deb!!! Butchie always did that faithfully…
You and Michelle are courageous, strong women. Not sure I would have survived that hairy trip. ?
I look forward to your next update. Keep smiling!! X
Yes, I am learning to keep my tanks cleaner than they have ever been. Storm hated it and usually left it to me anyway so at least I have experience. You are strong too and I am sure you would march through the problems like a trooper. I do have to admit that without Michele along I am not sure I would have kept moving on those cold, rainy days. I gotta get her back to the Tuscon airport in time to fly back to her husband!!
