Get home. My garden didn't make it last night. The frost killed most everything.

Relaxing in my lazyboy. Get a call from the renters. They are sitting on the side of the highway about an hour away. The motor home is over heating. Wifey and me jump in the Jeep and go find them. Found them. Check the motor home out. It tossed the fan belt for the water pump. So now here waiting for a mobile mechanic to show up.

I went for a bike ride.

Mobile mechanic was here. Looked at the motor and said, yep you need a belt. He's getting a belt now.

Tensioner too? My truck chunked a belt off and I replaced the belt and tensioner. Never been replaced in 188,000 miles.

The 6.7 in a motorhome is a different set up then what's in a truck. The belt the mobile mechanic got was about 6" to short. Did a bunch of phone calls to find the belt part number. Can't get a belt until tomorrow morning.

So we got the motorhome off the highway and in a parking lot. The renters are staying in the motorhome. The mobile mechanic will be there tomorrow morning with the correct belt. The motorhome only has 49,900 miles on it. Replaced the water pump last summer with a new belt. Makes me wonder about the belt.

Got home around 10:30. Haven't had nothing to eat since this morning. Wifey got some frozen chill out and thaw it. Now my lips are burning.
