And Another Thing...Life is never dull on the road with YM and Mrs B

Well you will all be pleased to know that the drier is fixed, yippee.......but were just about to de-camp to move up to Chattahoochee when we discovered that we did not have hot water !! Our electrician could not find a fault and there was power going into the sockets....ho hum !! We decided to move on anyway and sort the problem out at the next stop........
We travelled this  road for 80 miles up to Chattahoochee.......we love these ones that are straight and empty apart from the odd logging truck ! The weather is now sunny.....clear blue skies and in the 80's.......
After checking into our campsite, we take off to Camping World, 30 miles down the I-10, to check out what might be the matter with our water heater. Upshot is we need to take the trailer in although the guy did say it could just be a case of wiggling the wires !!!! Hey we did it and it worked hot water......
1st Nov and a visit to Florida Caverns. The caverns are really good, very pretty and although not  huge, just a 45 minute tour compared to when we went to Mammoth Caves, Kentucky, which was a 4 hour tour, they are very pretty and interesting. This photo and the following don't really do it justice.

Ho hum back to campsite and hey no hot water !!!!! We are not complaining as we are very aware of the poor folks in New Jersey and New York.......
Cutting a very long story short.........today we hitched up and took our camper to the local RV repair guy who thought he had fixed it but hey no.........seems we need a new thermostat and now it's Friday so we will move on tomorrow down to Destin on the Gulf Coast and get it sorted next week !!!!
More adventures with Yorkie-Man and Mrs Blogger soon........

  1. Hi Sue & Michael,
    If you still have no hot water perhaps Michael will join the "Movember " club and grow a moustache,look forward to seeing the pictures.Caves look great,but we think the 45min tour would have been the one for us.Hope you get the thermostat fixed,enjoy.
    Cheers
    Ann & Dave

  2. Guess you can just go for a dip in the lake to freshen up till you get hot water! You are missing nothing here, a really miserable wet and windy Sunday afternoon - and as usual no decent movies on TV. BUT, went to see new James Bond film last night, brilliant - go see it.

  3. We are now back down on the Gulf Coast at Destin Florida. We need to get this hot water problem fixed, we have a repair guy coming tomorrow to hopefully do just that.......
    It is hot and sunny but with the clocks going back an hour last night it's dark by 5pm, feels weird !
    Update and photos on blog tomorrow.....
