June 20, 2013: Forest City, Iowa

Here we are in northern, Iowa with a map that shows our journey so far.  Each balloon can be clicked for more information about that location.

We moved the RV from their overnite sites to the service are at 6:45 am.  We were quickly joined for 4 or 5 more RVs, all of us waiting for the doors to open.  At precisely 7am, the lights were turned on, the doors opened, the coffee was already made and they had three people ready to sign us up for appointments. We filled out the paperwork and waited to see if they could squeeze us in today or whether we would have to wait til tomorrow.  Luckily, they took the RV right away, but didn't get to start work on it til later in the morning.  We spent the day in their comfortable waiting room, walking across the street to a lodge for lunch.  At 3pm, they brought out the RV with everything fixed but the steps, which needed a replacement part that be in the next morning.  Back to the their parking lot campsite for the evening, but it does have electric as it is 88 degrees with high humidity.

In case you are wondering, we could have made an advance appointment if we had called about month or more previously, but we didn't want to impose that requirement on our travel schedule.
