Day two of the Oliver Recovery Project commenced with optimism. We did not sleep too well but still things looked bright in the foggy, hazy, storm impending morning. After breakfast we continued the cleaning and re-stocking. While also checking each of our systems. Late morning we tried the inverter by using the coffee pot, it worked. We thought we were home free. Then last thing we tried the microwave also on inverter, worked fine on 110. It ran 25 seconds and we got an error message on the inverter. We got the tech from Oliver to come over - he recorded the error messages and we took it back across the lot to the shop and left it as the crew was leaving for lunch. When they returned and started in on our issue we chose to go eat lunch. Returning we found the news that the inverter that tested twice by Oliver and seemed OK was actually damaged as well. Did they have a new one? No. A different one is used now and it would be difficult to install it but, Jason found one north of Nashville. Bad news that would take a day or two at best to get. If, he said, we had an appointment they could install and bill back via Oliver. Well, we did! Amazing. I had made an appointment to have the solar checked ( I resisted the urge to write Solar System, you’re welcome) at this place. So arrangements have been made and confirmed. We are to be there at 8 tomorrow.
While at Oliver we met a great couple from Cincinnati, Roy and Christina, and we talked a long time together. About RV and travel and church, they are committed believers, we just had a great time. We are grateful for the time passed much more agreeably with the two of them to visit witha.
Oliver has improved so much from our early experiences. New large facility, full staff, waiting room, nice show room, delivery area and — very accommodating and competent people. They are busy all the time but are doing a strong job.
We moved to a campground about 40 minutes from our appointment on Thursday. It is 8:20 it may as well be midnight - good night!
