Thursday, June 21st - Staying in SLC

I have not been happy with the performance of our Dometic refrigerator. Several days ago, I placed wireless thermometers in the freezer and the refrig. compartments. This morning, the freezer read 18 degrees and the refer read 50 degrees...much too warm.

So, I verified with Newmar customer service that we were fully covered for parts and labor under their three year warranty (expires August 20th). The answer was yes so we located All Coach Rv Repair in Orem, about 10 miles north of us. A call to Terrell and we packed up and have relocated to the driveway of the service center in Orem. Terrell believes the problem is the thermistor which acts similar to a thermostat on a heater. Because we have a larger RV refrigerator unit, he needed to order the part from Dometic. It is due to arrive Saturday morning. Meanwhile, we will make ourselves at home in the service driveway.

Today, we drove up to Sundance, an area started by Robert Redford that includes a ski slope, restaurants, theaters and is home for the Sundance Film Festival. We had left the camera in the coach but, we plan to return tomorrow and eat lunch and take pix.

Life Lesson # 587 - When MA trims my mustache, let's do it BEFORE the marguaritas. After MA cut my hair this evening, she went to work on my mustache AND upper lip! I am not exactly scarred for life but...it hurt like hell for a moment. She felt terrible and it was her suggestion to time Happy Hour AFTER the haircut.

We had a very nice dinner at P.F. Changs in Orem. Later, I changed the oil and oil filter in the generator. This is a once every 150 hours job...last done in early September 2006.
