Repairs in the Desert

Yesterday started off sunny and warm with just a little breeze blowing. It was a fine morning for Tony to repair his trailer and make sure his batteries were being charged when he drives down the highway.

The suspected problem was the plug connection between trailer and truck so that was the first point of attack.

Here Mike and Phil check over the wiring diagrams to confirm all wires are connected properly.

Tony gets into the repair and uses a volt meter to check the current at each connection. Sure enough, one wire wasn't doing its job, so with a few turns and clamps tightened the problem was fixed.

As you can see,later in the day,  the wind picked up and it was impossible to sit outside. Happy Hour was moved to town where we decided to go for Tacos.

This is a very popular restaurant especially on Tuesday when tacos are $1.00  Connie, Mary and Barb are all smiles after our meal.

Yes, we ordered lots and enjoyed every bite. Thanks John or was it Mike who suggested the "Taco Happy Hour".

Our solar panels are working fine and staying on the trailer even in these high winds. All systems seem to be working and we have plenty of power for all our electrical needs. (toaster, lights, coffee maker, computers, TV, DVD player)

Thanks again for stopping by.
