From Tucson, we drove to Imperial Dam, the GFD, to see friends from last year's ten week stay there. And for the solar installer guy to put in an inverter for our solar system.
He's got the whole solar system,
In his hands.
An inverter changes 12 volt power from the solar panel to 120 volt power, the kind you pay the power company to send to your normal house. As opposed to a converter, which changes 120 volt power in an RV park or from a generator to 12 volt power for lights and other stuff in an RV. An inverter inverts 12 volt power. A converter converts 120 volt power. Got it? Now say it three times fast!
Inverter installation did not go well. Left without an inverter. In the mean time, I noticed a problem with the slide repair from a month ago. A big problem.
And so we find ourselves back in Apache Junction, waiting....
The Poet wrote that "All things come to he who waits." Apparently he did not own an RV.

Hi Bruce,
Sorry to hear about your problems. Probably makes you wonder at times what you did to anger the gods (or more likely, thoroughly piss them off!).
