Nov 8 - Weekly Update

Starting today, I am making a change. I always just post when things are happening. travel days are daily posts. Then there may be 2 months without anything. I have decided to make this a bit more follower friendly and put everything in a weekly post. If we travel several days, that will make it a long post. However, it has been explained to me, people are creatures of habit, having a weekly post makes it regular and manageable for the folks reading it. We are gonna give it a try, if you have a differing opinion don't be afraid to share it!

Since returning from the trip, I have have been too busy catching up at work to get a whole lot done. Loopers, loopers, and more loopers! We had 9 in the marina one evening last week! Greeting and talking with them gets a bit overwhelming sometimes. It's too late in the year to start now, but after Jan 1, we are going to keep track of everyone a little better. It helps our failing memories.

On the trip to the Rendezvous, Toscana lost an alternator. Not the old one either, the new one replaced this spring. At the same time, I realized the battery selector switch was not functioning properly, and had to install a cross over cable in the engine room for the trip. I have replaced the switch, and removed the cross cable. I have not yet had a chance to further investigate the alternator to be sure it has failed and not a bad wire someplace before I remove it.

11/4 - Our friends that took off 17 weeks ago to spend the summer cruising the Cumberland River finally returned! 

11/7 - I drove in to Nashville this morning to pickup Larry from Nepetie this morning so he can continue his loop journey.
