In the morning I called my brother and arranged to pick him and his wife for breakfast. They live in Springfield, about 20 miles from Junction City. We visited awhile until my nephew and his wife and daughter came and then we went to Denny's for a big breakfast. Lotus, the three year old, kept us entertained during breakfast. She is a little blond cutie.
Around 1pm we headed back to Camping World to pick up the trailer, but it wasn't done yet, so I did a little shopping but couldn't afford to do that for long.
Once they were done we headed for another RV place in Junction City to get an estimate and repairs for yesterdays damage. Junction City is the former home of two RV manufacturers so there seems to be several different sales and repair places but they are all owned by the same outfit. We went to the one that the insurance adjuster recommended and talked to the estimator. She said that the kind of work required would take up to two weeks because they would just remove the metal panel and send it out to a fab shop and then when the part was ready they would paint it and install it and the trim that goes with it. So we decided to do nothing for now since the trailer is road worthy as it is; I called the insurance co. and got names of their affiliated repair facilities in Sacramento, Yuma and Phoenix. The best sounding of them was in Phoenix so that's probably where we'll get the work done.
We were able to stay free that night at the dealer's storage lot - that was quite a bonus considering that we actually didn't spend any money there!
