Layover in Tupelo
Last night as we opened (or closed – don’t remember) the door to the carbus there was a thunk followed by the sound of a motor running continuously. The linkage that raises and lowers the step broke and the motor was trying to finish its’ function. Turned off power to the motor but now we had a step hanging down. Internet search showed RV service center in a small town 10 miles west of Tupelo. Called early this morning and explained problem (passing through, broken step, etc.). Service manager said come on over and we’ll see what we can do. Drove the 10 miles carefully avoiding any bumps. “Needs a part. We have part for two step but not single step. Can have it here tomorrow. You are welcome to stay here. Just back in next to the shop and we’ll plug you in.” So that’s what we did. Spent the day watching RVs move in and out of the shop. Actually, we had a project we are working on that needed some time so we kept busy. At 5:00 everybody left and it was just us and the occasional train.
