We enjoyed our time at the Bill Plemmons RV dealership in Rural Hall, where we've been since Wednesday. We enjoyed free camping, (even if it was in close quarters), lots of free food, played Bingo for great RV prizes (didn't win), met some interesting people and had some enjoyable entertainment last night in a spoof of the tv show "Hee-Haw". Last night was also Chicken Stew night, when the surrounding residents pile in to the service bay building for a $5 All You Can Eat Chicken Stew" (similar to oyster stew but with shredded chicken instead of oysters) and dessert. All proceeds go to charity. We didn't do a lot of walking around this year due to Hank's bruised knee (from kneeling on hard tile floor) and Selene's injured foot, both of which are slowly getting better.
Today we took our time getting things ready for travel, added some water to the fresh water tank and drove about 35 miles southwest to Hunckler Fabrication in Mocksville, NC. Recently, friends gave us a MagnaShade for the front windshield that they could no longer use since they purchased a different RV. Tomorrow, Hunckler's will install the needed magnets on the front windshield of Little House so we can use the shade when parked. When parked, this shade will keep out much of the sun's heat while allowing us to still see what's happening outside. Hunckler's invited us to park overnight in their lot and even furnished a 20 amp electric hookup for our use.
If everything goes well with tomorrow's installation, we'll head a little further west to Tom Johnson's in Marion to have them look at our roof-top TV antenna and rear air conditioner.
