Friday, November 22, 2013, Coach Repair Saga Continues, Salinas, CA


On Friday morning, (still at Golden State Truck & Trailer Repair in Salinas, CA) they had good news and bad news. Good news - they had a universal joint in stock. Bad news - they had to order a new yoke. To my way of thinking, their idea of good news was questionable. Parts would have to be ordered and would not get in until Monday. They put the drive train back together temporarily (with the broken yoke) and said we could drive to a close campground for the weekend. I couldn't bring myself to chance it, so we stayed in the parking lot instead. The downside to that decision was we were essentially trapped. If we went out of the gate, we could not get back in until Monday morning.  

We spent Friday doing some shopping. Salinas at least had a nice variety of stores - a brand new Super Walmart, a Costco and a PetSmart. We got back before the gates closed for the weekend.
