A NEW PORCH LIGHT

One of the items that we purchased while at the FMCA RV Rally in Indio, was a motion detecting porch light.  This was the new updated version of the original that I had installed on our motor home a few years ago.  Swapping out our old for the new, was relatively easy.  Changing Nancy's original light for the new one was a little more involved, and while the girls were at Wal Mart, I installed the new light on her motor home.  One of the things I noticed right away, was how well her manufacturer - Tiffin, protected the original light from any water intrusion.  The wiring hole, the screw holes, and the perimeter of the light fixture, was well sealed with silicone.  Conversely, when I changed the original light on our Monaco, the opposite was true.  When I replaced our old light with the new light, I made sure that no moisture would get in, using an abundance of silicone to seal everything up.
   

For the second day, we had lunch at Cracker Barrel, and being a Saturday, we had to wait for about 15 minutes before being seated.  For us, Cracker Barrel has always been one of our favorite places to eat.  The food is good, the prices are reasonable, and except for an occasional wait due to it's popularity, Cracker Barrel is a restaurant we return to time and again.

This morning is the end of our week here in Yuma.  We'll be making the short drive up Hwy 95 to Quartzsite, where we'll join the masses of other RV'ers who are parked in the desert.  We often use the comparison of  Sturgis is to bikers, what Quartzsite is to RV'ers.  Kind of like a center of the universe for each, and a place that the respective enthusiasts return to each year.  From Quartzsite, we'll be heading back to the "Last Chance Ranch", where we'll mostly stay, until migrating north in late April toward the last frontier - Alaska.
