"The Gate" Batesville, Texas Nov 28 & 29

Thursday, November 28, 2013

"The Gate" Batesville, Texas 37 degrees and mostly sunny to 59 degrees and mostly sunny. Bonnie and I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

Almost the bare minimum number of vehicles in and out today as the holiday has cut out the wayward lookers for rigs or the wrong location vehicles. Bonnie and I had out big meal about noon before she went in to sleep. Then it was time for football.

"The Gate" Batesville, Texas 38 degrees and mostly sunny to 62 degrees and mostly sunny.

I went into Pearsall today needed propane gas tank exchange. I also picked up a couple of 2 X 4's for the coach stabilizer jacks. I have eight by twelve inch blocks and twelve by twelve blocks but the front stabilizer jacks are pushing at an angle thus digging into the dirt. I cut the 2 X 4's into two foot lengths and placed them to make a twelve by twenty-four inch pad for the blocks, more surface area to distribute the weight. When not properly stabilized the coach rocks when entering or exiting. If you are the one laying down to sleep you realy notice the movement. After getting to sleep there is no noticing the rocking. There was just the regulars in and out the gate almost like a Sunday or holiday today.

On Wednesday I talked with the person we are relieving here at the gate and he wants more time to finish what he is doing. So we agreed to stay until the end of December. After that we will need to go the RV dealer to have the front heater blower repaired. That will be our first thing after the gate.
