MARION, NC: Tuesday, April 23, 2013

Today was the official start of the SKPACRE Rally. But yesterday was an interesting day, so let's start there.

First thing, we spoke with our service writer to make sure the warranty claim would be called in ASAP and the inspection ordered.  We expected it would be two days before getting a reply.  However, yesterday afternoon, the inspector showed up ,agreed to do his inspection at our campsite, which put us in high gear to uncover the bed, empty the cabinet under the kitchen sink, while clearing the slide area in order to retract it, which meant finding out-of the way spots to put all the things we had to move.  We finished just as the inspector arrived, looked everything over while getting explanations from Hank about the problems, and took a lot of pictures.  After happy hour, we went to dinner at Fatz Cafe with 3 other couples.

Today, the warranty company asked for precise measurements of the bed, and we hope to hear what they propose as a solution to our problems tomorrow.
