Kevin and John started working on the coach early and we were done by noon.
The furnace problem was corrosion. John fixed a connector and the furnace started right up. We thought all was well. But then he shut it down and it wouldn't restart. Found corrosion on the connectors inside the blower that connect to the sailswitch. That took care of the problem.
Kevin found and fixed the power problem with the SeeLevel system. Bad connection in the fuse box.
Sharon got John to look for holes in the firewall. She was (correctly) convinced that cold air was blowing into the coach. John found a large opening around the steering column. He fabricated a piece to cover the opening. And he filled another opening were the wire harness enters the firewall. What a difference it made. I wouldn't say we were toasty, but I could feel my toes today as I was driving.
We left Kevin's about noon and we are stopped for the night about 30 minutes north of Louisville. Decided not to stay at Walmart. Instead, we found a Yogi Bear Park that is mostly closed for the winter. But they have a few drive through spot in the front with self check in envelopes.
We drove past the Walmart. Lot full of trucks and not a level spot to be found. We made the right decision to go to the park.
Thelma and Louise have settled in to the sounds and movement of the coach. They got Sharon up at 1:00am and then again at 3:00. I slept through it all. They have even slept together under the chair. I think they are planning a mutiny. Louise did disappear this morning. We looked all over for her. I even went out side to see if she had gotten out when John moved the coach into the building. But, that is when we discovered she was sleeping under the chair with her sister.
It was a good day. Looking forward to getting farther south and out of this cold.
