Sun Retreat San Antonio West site 213
San Antonio, Texas
A busy day for the two-legged today. Pam hustled to her 8:30am appointment at Blue Compass RV and returned with loads of praise. Customer satisfaction was 10+. She dropped of her rig and they got right on it....after all, she had an appointment. And they stayed on the job until it was completed....which is what a customer expects but unfortunately rarely gets. She was in an out with a thorough job completed. Jack leveling module replaced (pre-ordered when she made the appointment). Leveling system recalibrated. System checked to be assured issue has been resolved. And the rest of the day was hers to do as she pleased. Wow! Too bad they are located so far from home. But there are other Blue Compass locations...some in Florida. So the question is, is it just the personnel at this location or is this kind of service received at all Blue Compass locations?
Meanwhile, back at the campsite, Dad was attempting to locate a propane leak....as that is what the alert indicated. Being unsuccessful, he decided he needed to call in a tech with a propane sniffer. The second call he made was answered with an 'I'll work you in after I wrap up my scheduled appointments'. So Dad moved on to the next project: grey tank patch. I'm happy to report, so far that project has been successfully completed. So it was on to the next project....shower doors.
The evening we arrived, the shower door didn't want to close all the way or slide open correctly. There are three sections to the sliding doors and one had jumped the track. Now your first thought is probably, man those were some rough roads they traveled. And you would be right. Add in some age along with the fact that the track is plastic material and you have a project. Dad was able to take the section with the broken out plastic pieces and reverse it/flip it so the gap no longer was near the sliding section of the door. Way to go Dad!!
In the meantime, the tech still hadn't arrived so Dad and I waited around while Momma and Pam headed out with their personal tour guides. Cousins Danny and David know the area well...especially how to navigate the highways with the least amount of congestion. One of Pam's goals was to experience River Walk before we depart from San Antonio and their tour guides graciously accommodated. They got the full experience, enjoying lunch at one of the many River Walk restaurants as well as riding the pink tour boat with an entertaining boat captain as the tour guide.
If you have never been to River Walk, you probably don't realize that the area is below street level.
It is very scenic with lush greenery, flowers and buildings with lots of character.
Dad and I were still awaiting the arrival of the mobile tech so Momma and Pam hopped back into Danny's vehicle to meet up with the rest of the cousins with their families for dinner. It was a table full.
Everything from tortilla making
Drop a chunk of dough in the top of the machine
 And be amazed at the round, flat tortilla that slides out the bottom |
The tortillas are toasted on the griddle before being removed with a spatula |
Dad reported that the tech arrived around 7pm and the solution to the issue is replace the deep cell battery that provides the 12 volt service to the rig. It was the battery smell that was setting off the alarm. No propane leak.
That wrapped up all the projects that needed attention.....for now anyway.
