The biggest excitement for the past 24 hours was the overnight low being 38 degrees and finding out that our front furnace won't turn on with new thermostat. Our front AC/heat pump is OLD. It doesn't put out much heat when the temperature drops below 40. The rear AC/heat pump was new last year and seems to be much more efficient. Even when temperatures drop into the mid 30's it still puts out a reasonable amount of heat. When the front furnace doesn't work we don't have much for heating the front of the coach. Kathy wants it cool/cold in the bedroom. All of the rear furnace heat goes to the back as does most of the heat from the rear AC/heat pump. The only significant heat source for the front half of the coach is a small, portable electric space heater. The front half of the coach was down in the low 50's.
When the guys at Lakeshore installed the new thermostat Monday afternoon (it didn't arrive until midday Monday) they had to remove part of a kitchen cabinet to get access to the wires behind the thermostat. They didn't finish the installation until near quitting time.
I sent them a couple of texts this morning and they replied with a couple of things for me to try. None of them worked, looks like I'm going to have to remove the cabinet to check the wires. They are supposed to get me information on how I do the cabinet removal.
Today was sunny with a high in the high 50's. There was a breeze, if you were in the sun and out of the breeze it was nice. If you were in the breeze it was cool even in the direct sunlight.
We went to Tia Juanita's Fish Camp for lunch. We previously went to one when we were in Beaumont last spring. Kathy loved her fish tacos. My food was OK.
After lunch we took a circuitous route back to the campground, just to look around a little. Once we got back we walked down to the river. It's a pretty place. We sat and enjoyed the view but it didn't take long to get cold, because of the breeze.
