We have been having A/C issues the past few days. The system would run pretty much constantly, unless the thermostat was set to almost 90 degrees! We finally decided that the thermostat had probably gone bad, so off to Lowe's we went today after being down in the city all day to buy a new thermostat.
I was able to find step by step directions on how to install it, since the old analog thermostat had more wires than the new digital one needed. Hubby has installed it and the A/C is running [and quitting] again! Praise the Lord for handy hubby and Google!
Our New Orleans experience was OK, it was not our favorite place we have ever visited. I think we are learning that we want to be where nature shows her beauty, not in big cities. The campground is TINY and totally fenced in. The hosts/owners are quite lovely folks and we have felt very welcome here and the fact that they will shuttle you down to the French Quarter has certainly made our visit bearable. No way would we want to be driving our big truck down in all the traffic and one way streets. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour today, had a great guide who was raised here and he had lots of stories to tell. We enjoyed being down on the river walk as well, but the French Quarter did not do much for us. Too dirty, smelly and crowded. We are not partying people, so I guess NOLa was not the best choice for us.
I did enjoy our beignets and seafood though! We are back on the road tomorrow, heading to Beaumont, TX for a catch-up day. We need to do some laundry and catch our breath a little bit.
Take care, and visit us often as we move along.
