Awake: 5:15am Temp ? sleep 6+15 sunny outside
overnight inside Newell service bay.


@ 6:45am, Gary continues working with the crack in the fiberglass.

For breakfast, we each have a healthy Kathy muffin.

@12:30pm our coach is backed out of service bay #17 onto the ramp outside.
Now Ron can analyze what’s happening with our TracStar system & why it
takes so long to capture a satellite signal. During the trouble shooting
process, Ron talks with Al in Florida, the same Al that hinted to me
during the month of May that we might have a gyro or circuit board
failing. Using FedEx, we order the suggested parts to be shipped priority
(1) to Newell so Ron can install them tomorrow & go from there.

About 3:30pm our motorhome gets moved into one of the paint chambers for
the final finish. These guys are very good @ what they do: nearly ½ of our
coach is covered with plastic & paper just to insure no stray spray gets
on anything. We agreed to stay overnight in the paint stall #21 & Gary +
John agreed to leave the 16 ft door open 2 ft with big fans running to
keep the air fresh all night. All of this just to repair a small
fiberglass crack!

7:10pm dinner: Pepper steak, brown rice, spinach salad & toast.

(2) Movies on Cable TV: “Requiem for a Heavyweight” with Anthony Quinn,
Julie Harris, Jackie Gleason & Mickey Rooney. Grim account of fighter,
Quinn, whose ring career is over, forces him into corruption &
degradation. 1962

“Lawrence of Arabia” with Peter O’Toole, Alec Guinness, Anthony Quinn,
Omar Sharif, etc. A blockbuster biography of the enigmatic adventurer
T.E. Lawrence. It’s a little slow during the second half but it’s still
one of my favorites. 1962.

High temp=low 90’s Lights out: 1:02am
