2/5/15 - On Monday, (2/2) we did some driving around downtown Tallahassee but was rather cold and windy so did not do much else.  We have been having trouble with the water pressure and I just could not figure it out.

On (2/3) we decided to go visit the Spanish mission named San Luis. It was a very interesting mission since it was shared by the Indians and the Spaniards and they built a fort for protection.  They got word the British were coming and so burned the whole mission down and left for Alabama and Louisiana.  It has been rebuilt to keep the history.

On (2/4) I decided to take off the water regulator and lo and behold we had a lot of water pressure so decided I needed to go to Camping World and buy another regulator.  Since it was raining all night, we decided to go see a movie and then go buy the regulator.  When we got  home, we soon learned that we had a leak somewhere since the rug was really wet in front of the refrigerator. I knew about a valve to turn off the water to the ice maker in the refrigerator which was under the sink but could not turn it off.  Aunt Esther also tried to turn it off and we just could not get it to move.  One of the neighbors across the little road, pulled up while I was outside checking out where I thought the leak might be and I asked if he could just turn off the value because that should stop the leak until we could figure out where it was coming from so we would not have to do without water. He agreed and did turn the valve but then told me that he sometimes works on RV's and would like to see if he can find the leak but then I had already kinda located it.  At first he thought we would have to pull out the refrigerator but then I suggested we first pull out the panel on the outside of the RV.  He agreed and immediately discovered the leak.  He then cleaned it out, changed the washer and made it tighter.  He came back in and turned the valve back on.  I had to move the boxes from the storage area and put them in the car since they were getting wet.  The rug was so wet we used a lot of towels to try and get it dry.  We then put a little portable heater to it for the night.

2/5 - Today, we washed all the towels, cleaned up the RV and had a fan on the rug most of the day.  It was a nice day since we had sun all day.  We then decided to have pizza for dinner so we did not have to cook.
