Well, we waited all day for a call to go into a repair bay that never came, but it was a nice day Monday nonetheless. I stopped in to the waiting room to say hi to some friends whose rigs were being worked on before I got a call from Bob that he needed me for a bit. Later on, T.J. the cabinet man stopped over and gave us a quote for a cabinet to replace the sofa. We were really pleased at the amount and told him we wanted to go ahead with the project. And it will be installed next week! So we will definitely be around here for another week, although if repairs suddenly speed up we will have to change campgrounds.
On Tursday Bob and I went across the street to McKinney's, a place that sells used rigs and supplies. We walked through the warehouse where they have any kind of furniture or appliance a person might need.
It's a dusty place with nothing priced. Bob and I found a solid cherry work station with an opening for a pullout table and a pullout computer station, place for a printer, and lots of room for files. The doors even are the same as the cabinets in our coach. We have wanted one of these but didn't want to pay $3,000 to have one put in. So after a call to T.J., we purchased this one for $350 and he will make it like new for another $400. Deal!
Plus we are going to try and sell our current dinette and the Corian top (above) that we don't want back to McKinney's to further defray costs.
Later we got a call to go into the cabinet bay where the techs are working on our cattywompus kitchen counter.
They removed the side and a support that was holding the countertop up and made a new one.
This is what was behind the now-gone sofa. As I write this, we are just waiting for adhesives to dry and we can move it back to our site.
