Awake: 4:50am     Temp 81     sleep 5+08     sunny-hot    overnight @ the Newell campground. 

About 7:00am, technician Tracy came over to our M. H. & drove it to the dump station & then into bay parking. 

Whitey & Jimmy, techs,  got right after some of our glitches; Whitey on the cracked pipe I had during the winter; and Jimmy, on replacing the air seals on the front air bags. 

Whitey also replaced my Teddy Heater with a new one after I had trouble with the old one during the winter. Later, Jimmy painted our passenger slide edges with a sealant to prevent water leaks in the future. 

Later, the temperature in the service building was so hot: 103 degrees. Many coaches were running their air conditioners to help keep the techs somewhat cool & somewhat comfortable. So much electricity was being used, not only by the service techs, welders, & the building of new motorhomes in the other buildings, but also in the city of Miami, Oklahoma. 

The voltage was in the lower 100's. I turned our air conditioning off during the high load period & later in the afternoon, back on. 

Dinner: Sausage, peppers, onions & mushrooms & broccoli plus Como bread dipped in balsamic vinegar & olive oil. 

On our recorded DVR, we watched 1/3^rd of the movie: "High Flight." 

Lights out: 11:58pm.
