August 27th

It has been a while, but I really have to vent about RV DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT.  When we finally got all of our mail we found a letter from the Manufacture of our coach saying there is a possibility that we have faulty studs on our wheel hubs.  So I called Blue Dog Service department (because there is no dealer on the west side of the Cascades), and told them that we received this letter and what do we have to do.  They said they need to look at them and besides you have a appointment for the 27th at the 8:00 AM to fix your slide that is not going all the way out.  So this morning we showed up at 8:00 AM expecting them to fix the slide and take a look at the wheel studs.  So after dropping off the trailer we head out for breakfast and some things we need.  Then we were going to  do a little geocaching.  Wait a minute the phone is ringing and it is Blue Dog saying the trailer is ready for pick-up.  Wow!! They are on top of things and got everything done, nope, they didn't do nothing!!!!!  They said the wheel studs are OK, they couldn't do anything about the slides tell the manufacture gets the pictures and let them know what to do.  Ok, I asked who is paying for the 400 miles of fuel I just spent on coming over here to get this fixed, what do you think they said!!!!------.
OK that is it, I have extended warranty and now it is time to use it and save myself some frustration.
Anyway we left there and headed towards cooler climate like the Oregon Coast.

This is some of the burn area near Roosevelt, Washington.  We were driving up 84 towards Portland and seeing a lot of burn area.  You have to pray that know more people loose there homes.  We had a good drive and made it here to Seaside, Oregon.  This has to be our favorite TTN park, lots of room around each site.  I stopped by and said hi to Nick and Terry and later in the week we will have to get together for a dinner one night.  Tomorrow we need to get a couple of tires on the trailer replaces, after getting the axle fixed.  Tire a lot cheaper here then in Washington, saving a good hunderd buck, yes.
