Where are we now and how did we get here?

Well right now we are at Wade NC KOA. How we got here is more of a story.

The day we were leaving SNF we decided we needed to get in a  couple of pickelball games before we took off. Maybe a good plan but when we attempted to start the coach it wouldn't. Tried the battery boost switch which should connect the house and chassis batteries, no luck. Read the owners manual, no real help. Wally and I trouble shot the system and determined that the battery boost solenoid was not working. Wally had jumper cables, mine are in Vermont, so we managed to get the coach started. So off we head for Alliance Coach for the annual maintenance and a few fixes.

We arrived later than we wanted and were on the wait list  for a camping spot. We did not get to see the service writer on Monday. Tuesday morning we were expecting someone at the coach at 0700 so we were up early and had the coach ready to go. Well that didn't happen. Turns out we were to go to the office and get things written up by the service writer. Got that done and was told to pack a lot of patience. So packed.

After a couple of 2 hour, it will be 10 minutes, notifications from the service write they took the coach at 1530 and did their own determination that the battery boost solenoid was defective. So much for day 1 in service. Day 2's service didn't go much better. It took them all day to replace the solenoid, replace the waste system pump, check a few items on our punch list. Day 3 they finally got to do the oil and lube. Settled up and were on the road abut 1330.

Our stop for the day was Stagecoach RV park. Once we were set up we went shopping at Camping World. The next day we ran some errands and did some site seeing.

On our way to Crooked River State Park we made our first fuel stop. The tank gauge read about 3/8 of a tank So I figured I would need about 60+ gallons. Fooled me only took 48+gal or about $195. We had intended to visit Cumberland National Sea Shore but the weather wasn't to our liking so we just hung out.

So that is how we got here.
