Full Time RV Maintenance–Here We Go Again!

Every single time after we get the RV all hooked up, and ready to roll. . .

we take a moment, and ask the Lord to send angels of protection

to camp round about us, and to protect those on the road with us. . .

So many times, when things have happened, as they always will. . .

it has been at an opportune moment in time. . .

at a place where we could pull over safely.

 

Once again, today, God in His infinite wisdom and mercy. . .

allowed us to get the rig all the way into the RV Park. . .

in fact, we were backing the rig into the space when the power steering went completely out!

 

It ends up being a very minor fix. . .thanks again Lord. . .but we could see where a hose was

spraying fluid out. . .and driving it to the repair shop didn’t seem like such a great idea. . .

and. . .that’s why we pay for roadside service. . .so here they are. . .hooking us up.

 

Since our truck is now 11 years old, we expect these types of minor inconveniences. . .

this time it’s an elbow in the power steering line, that rubbed against something,

and caused a hole. . .go figure.

 

We are teaching a ministry workshop in Austin this weekend. . .about two hours away.

Not sure why we needed to be delayed in our departure. . .

but age, wisdom, and a lot of hard knocks,

has taught me that God knows the reasons. . .so we’ll just go with the flow. . .

say a prayer that we will be a blessing this weekend!

    1. Thanks Kathleen, we are so very thankful, that once again, when the problem came, it was at such a convenient place, and not out on the side of the highway, as it could have so easily been.

      It was such an easy fix. . .just replacing the power steering hose (probably the same one we had replaced last year) This time, because we used a little home town, family owned shop, the mechanic took the time to wrap that aluminum elbow in some tubing to prevent it from rubbing, and having this happen again.

      We are thankful to have the Beast alive and kicking again. . .lol!
