1/2/15 - Aunt Esther and I did not do much the last week because it as been rather cool.  When we returned to Largo, I did make contact on 1/15 to a repairman to take a look at the water heater.  We have hot weather via electric but not via propane and before we head back on the road, I want to make sure everything works.  On 1/16, John came out but he was absolutely useless.  He kept walking around the RV and then taking time out for a smoke!!  We finally got the maintenance book out and found the fuse box but that was not the problem.  John joggled some wires and lo and behold, it ignited and stayed on.  He then decided I should only use it when dry camping so turned it off after about 1/2 hour.  I also inquired regarding the water pump when dry camping and he did give me that information.  He changed a faucet in the kitchen.  He was an idiot and after $140 later, I finally sent him on his way!!

Over the week end, we learned that Aunt Kay had sent a box to Sarasota for us so we made plans to drive to Sarasota on Monday (1/19).  I talked with my neighbor regarding my problem because I still did not have hot water using propane.  He took a look, wiggled some wires and told me he felt it might be the circuit board and directed me to a RV repair place.

1/19 - Aunt Esther and I left for find the RV repair place before heading to Sarasota.  We finally found the place to learn there might be various problems and before purchasing the circuit board and they had an appointment with someone else in the same RV park and would like to check it out before charging me for the board.  The appointment has been scheduled.  We headed for Sarasota, had lunch with Aunt Martha and Wilbur, picked up the packaged, shopped at Detweilers produce barn, and found a special homemade spice.  We stopped off a few minutes to visit Aunt Inez before heading back to Largo.
