It is hard to believe, but I had to head back to Maine. It was time to get my air conditioner replaced. The plan was that they would have all the parts in and they would get it done. In one day and out the next.<\/p>\n

HAH!<\/strong><\/p>\n

They had some parts, but they didn’t have all the parts. Even more annoying was that the unit that was on my Airstream is no longer made, and they needed\u00a0a kit to adapt the air conditioner to work on Flo. Three things\u00a0about this are annoying.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. They were in charge of ordering the parts they needed to do the job.<\/li>\n
  2. The parts they didn’t order took almost a week to get there.<\/li>\n
  3. The parts that were required were not covered by the rather expensive warrantee I purchased.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I learned the difference between a warrantee and a guarantee. I thought I was buying a policy that guaranteed the functionality of the equipment that was covered.<\/p>\n

    Nope. A warrantee only covers the parts and labor for said parts. And if the covered parts need extra parts to make them work? Nope. Not covered. To do it again, I think I would just bank the money that I spent on the warrantee and pay for things as I needed them.<\/p>\n

    The kit was mighty expensive, too.<\/p>\n

    Anyway, I told them that I was just staying put until the work was completed. I camped in their “scenic” back lot…<\/p>\n

    FOR TEN DAYS!<\/p>\n

    I guess things could have been worse. I mean, the work eventually got done, and at least I didn’t have to pay for the privilege of camping in an area I didn’t want to be.<\/p>\n

    I did meet up with a Facebook friend, which will be in the next post.<\/p>\n

    I also took a run down to Kennebunkport to see if I could spot 41 or 43.<\/p>\n

    The American flag was flying, but I don’t know if any of the Bushes were home to visitors. Since the weren’t expecting me, I didn’t knock.<\/p>\n

    I stopped a couple of times to look at the ocean, when I could pull over. The weather was so vile that there were not a lot of people competing for the parking spots.<\/p>\n

    “NOT ART” Who is to say?<\/p>\n

    \"birds-in-the-marsh\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    The birds didn’t seem to mind the drizzly weather.<\/p>\n

    \"rosehips-with-raindrops\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    And the rose hips were bright and beautiful.<\/p>\n

    I did a little bit of this and that and visited Corrine and eventually the parts came in and they installed the air conditioner…<\/p>\n
