Well gang, we are in Eureka, CA where we had hoped to get our fridge repaired.  That is not going to happen.      The local RV Dealer looked at the unit, confirmed what we already knew - the coils aren't working.  He did add a new wrinkle.  Apparently KZ, the RV manufacturer, was supposed to install a heat deflector in the fridge compartment before installing the fridge but never did.  Norcold (the refrigerator manufacturer) insists this be done before they will replace the coils under warranty.  Sooooo, since this is a major undertaking, we had to find a RV dealer who was capable of doing these repairs.  We found one is in Phoenix so will have this looked at again Oct 5th, get a quote (we hope) and get it repaired after Norcold approves the quote... again we hope!  Once the quote is approved it will take a week to ten days to get the parts... by this time we should be in Holland and it will be repaired during our trip there... nice plan eh?  We'll see as we all know what happens to plans.

In the meantime we've spent our second day in Eureka.  We took all our frozen food (mostly meat) to a local food pantry so we didn't have to throw it out... at least someone benefits from all this.

Arda also made a donation to the local Indian Tribe this AM...

For the rest, we are enjoying the sun (finally) and warmer weather as we plan our next couple of days.

Thats all for now.  Until next time, keep your loops open!
