Deb and Mike : -Glad to hear you made it safely down to the lower 48. Rest a bit and then plan your trip a little farther south. Spokane can get lots of snow. We're looking forward to seeing both of you later on in the sunbelt.

I just went back to look because I knew yo were there. If a pin isn't moved for a long time, it goes away. However, according to the map you're still in Alaska. Are you sure you're in Spokane? I understand the not sure where you're going. We're not sure where or even when. Looking forward to seeing you on the road again.

IYQ Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 IYQ's ranch is now water front property. It's been raining for 3 days and the storm is still not here. Supposed to get here early tomorrow. I came home from town yesterday to find a lake infront of my trailer. I had to wade to get in the door. Who said the desert was dry. The Doctor I was supposed to see today called yeasterday afternoon and told me a piece of equipment he needed for the PFT he had me scheculed for broke down and gave me a new appointment for Monday Morning. He got the report from the lab and was concerned because It showed a high D-Dimer (test for blood clots) He ask me a bunch of questions and evidently I said the right thing cause he said He'd see me Monday. I was surprised that the doctor himself called instead of one of his assistants. So I guess he does have my health at interest. The sun came out for a little while today, just enough so we wouldn't forget what it looked like. But it's back to drizzle drizzle drizzle again. Celestron Telescope just sent me a Return Order for my Star Sense AutoAlign without me asking for it. I was just about to send it back to Amazon but they said to send it back to them and as soon as it arrives they will send a new one back to me. I thought that was right nice of them and will speed things up a bit but I don't know why because there isn't going to be any stars in the sky until we get rid of all this rain from the hurricane.

IYQ Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 If your planning a vacation come to Beautiful Lake Deming. It's still raining but the radar shows it almost gone. You might say It's a Damp Nice Day but I fail to see what is nice about it. I had to make a trip to town this morning to get some Shipping Tape so I picked up a few groceries while I was at it. I don't understand why I have to buy so many groceries when I don't cook. Which reminds me. I forgot to get hamburger so I can get one of the cowgirls to loose fry it with onions for me. I could do it but as long as I have a good thing going, I'm not going to admit it. Well I guess I'll paddle down to the office to check my mail.

palamine Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Happy Birthday Terry. Hugs to you. I had forgotten to move our pin but I have now. Soon it will be moving everyday for a while. Domino effect at the bathroom sink. One handle broke off the tap, we replaced it. The second one broke off. We bought another set of taps. Doug installed that but there was a leak that we we didn't notice for a few days. Consequently the fiber board got soaked and the arborite lifted. Consequently, we have a beautiful new one piece sink and new taps. Looks real pretty. Three more days here and we are off. First to Salmon Arm to visit Doug's Mom one last time and then out over the Canadian Prairies.

Roger & Lynn Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) Well, after nine days at the Beaver Service Center in Bend, OR we were finally able to get our pin moved to the SKP park in Sutherlin for at least a week. Additional repairs started popping up while in Bend but, if it was gonna happen at least we were at a place that can fix 'em! The one that really worried us was all of a sudden the Hydro-Hot unit started dripping a large amount of coolant. The tech suspected that it might have been the new radiator cap for the boiler that I recently purchased on line from some Hydro-Hot "guru" that he recommended for my model. Apparently, it wasn't sealing correctly. He said that if it turned out that it was a leak inside the unit we may have to replace with a new one which would cost at least $10K...ouch! I was alarmed to find that it continued to weep fluid but, they said that as long as it was a brown color it was probably due to the overflow trapped inside the sealed compartment working it's way out and would eventually stop. The only way to tell for sure was to remove the Hydro from the coach and that would cost a lot of labor. To be safe we stuck around a few more days. It's still weeping when it runs and hope it abates soon! Got a little wordy on this but, I know that some of you wanted to know about it. Thanks for your good thoughts sent our way!

IYQ Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'm trying out my new USB antenna. I couldn't get any signal before. I just installed it and now I'm getting 4 bars from the Ranch Wi Fi. It was a good infestment. I was going to put it outside on a pole above the trailer but I don't think it's necessary now. It's just stuck to the window with suction cups. I posted this morning with a note for Roger but I don't see it. It must have got lost in the shuffle. Any way Roger I feel your discust for all the money and inconvienience the Beaver is causing you. It's time for you to sit back and enjoy your life on the road with no more trouble from the Beaver. Maybe you should use a little stronger language when it hiccups.

steved44 Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Hey Roger, I had a leak in my Aqua hot and it turned out to be the drain pipe. They are made of plastic and have a shut off valve on them. When I was searching for the leak I happened to touch the plastic pipe and it broke off in my hand and drained the whole system. They get brittle with age. I had a hard time getting the plastic threads out of the stainless steel tank, but then I replaced the pipe with a brass one and that's been fine for 5 years or so. I did have a cap go bad one time and it wouldn't suck the fluid back into the main unit from the coolant recovery tank. After a while the fluid level in the system got too low and the float cut the power off. Does your unit have a hose running from the cap to the coolant tank? I've seen those lines rub on something and leak too. Good luck with it.

I've seen those lines rub on something and leak too. Good luck with it. Steve Steve, it doesn't appear to have a leak on that hose running from cap to coolant tank. I think that I had the same thing happen with the coolant float due to the incorrect cap. Had to add a lot of coolant to the main tank to get it goin' again. How the heck did you get to that plastic drain pipe? Did you need to pull the unit out of your rig? There may be a panel behind the compartment that I can remove by crawling underneath and getting to the rear of the Hydro. Still hoping that the insulation inside is soaked and that's what's dripping because the fluid is brown as opposed to pink. At least the Hydro-Hot is working. Looks like you and me have got some ideas to exchange in Q over a few cranberries! Lee, that may be good advice! Roger Quote Roger & Lynn Rempe Class of 2012 & "Class-less"!

IYQ Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Beautiful sunshine this morning but boy did that rain ever bring the flies and mosquitoes. The old gravel pit on the back side of ours campground is now a lake and you better watch where you step while walking. I took my half mile walk this morning and I think I walked almost that far just walking around muddy spots. Every one is out this morning gadding. All this nice sunshine and I have a bunch of paperwork that has to get done. No rest for the wicked.

steved44 Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Roger, the drain is hard to get to. Your bus is probably set up different than mine, but it's on the side with the mixer pumps and below them. You would have had a good laugh seeing this old fat man crawling into the "belly of the beast" to fix that. at first I could only barely touch it, but after it broke off in my hand I figured out where it was! It was where all the anti freeze was pouring out of!! Aaarrgghhh! You're "on" with the cranberry juice.

Onthego Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Roger, glad you're able to get away from Bend. Hope the Aquahot is just messing with you. Is the rooster still crowing at all hours at Timber Valley? It is sooo dry here in Redding. Not much green grass and Shasta Lake is crazy low. Forecast is 98 degrees today. They could use the rain the Southwest has been getting. Had my first Double Double in a long time yesterday at an In &Out and it was gooood. I could feel my arteries closing when I was done. Fleamarket today and dragstrip tonight, to watch. Travel safe everyone.

I foolishly thought it would go the other way. Realistically it'll probably be a few years before we can spend any significant time out there. might try to do a dash to the Northwest and a cruise/train/bus tour of AK next year or the year after. can start seriously planning the Spring and Summer sometime in November. Next time I talk to Paul I'll tell him the bike is NO FUN AT ALL. LOL!
