 fritz. That’s right, for the first time ever my Airstream fridge is not doing its job. So today we’re going to try an experiment with a mobile RV repair company.
Mobile RV Repair
In Prescott I had a favorite mobile repair guy, Jim. He helped out when my Airstream heater was being wonky. And he helped out again when my hot water heater was wonky. Then I started working with Bob & Mary, the owners of RV Country, and Bob was great too and became a great friend…….But then he moved to Florida….. 🙁
Bob, help! 🙂
Fortunately, with my minor issues Bob & Jim both did a great job on my Airstream. Both were Mobile RV Repair specialists, and I knew I could trust them as everyone at Point of Rocks had only good things to say about them. But now here I am in a place I’m not familiar with, trying to start on our latest job. The fridge going out is something I don’t need right now. So we’re going to roll the dice…….
This morning I woke up early. And the fridge was on my mind. So sticking my hand into the freezer I found that everything is no longer frozen. And I found that the freezer compartment can hold a lot of water. There’s some cleaning to do. Rather than hook up and drive off looking for a repair shop in +100 heat, I’ve decided to use the Internet. I think we all know how fond of the Internet I am.
Finding a Mobile RV Repair Shop
So, at 5:30 a.m., feeling dejected and sleepy, I broke out my iPhone and searched for:
Queen Valley RV Repair
There is no RV repair place in this town. And it’s looking like the closest folks are in Apache Junction. That’s a 40 minute drive apparently. I’m happy to pay for the service call if they can help.
So, what has the all powerful and all knowing Internet offered me? Not a lot, but a few leads. It’s looking like there are two options out of Apache Junction…….. We have:
- The RV Doctor out of Apache Junction: Interestingly enough, they do have a website. It is under construction. Take a look.
- All Seasons Mobile RV Repair: Now this one has a passable, but not mobile, website.
It wasn’t easy to find either of these shops. Typing in Queen Valley RV Repair brought nothing for this area specifically. And the websites are both not SEO ready. But still, plowing through irrelevant links I found these two. And both of them are lucky I’m a polite and nice guy. It’s only 6:14 a.m., and I’m holding off on calling them until 8. Don’t want to wake them, but I do want the fridge fixed.
Please let my fridge be okay……
So, now we’re going to see what happens. I’ll be placing calls at 8:00 a.m. We’ll see who can and who can’t give me a hand. And in the meantime? Yeah, a lot of food is hitting the garbage this morning. Our closest real grocery store is 30 minutes away. Not the way to start on the next client site.
I do think that this is an interesting exercise in finding services with my iPhone. And I’ll follow up on the whole thing when it’s all over!Beautiful Lake Arenal offers tavelers a special perspective on the volcano and surrounding areas. In addition to the breathtaking views, the area is also famous for its wild inhabitants. Get ready to see and hear the loud howler monkeys and get close to the three-toed and two-toed sloths. Toucan sighting here is also very common, as dense forestry is their natural habitat. And these are just some of the surprises waiting for you when crossing the picturesque Lake Arenal.
After admiring the natural beauty and exploring the sensational wildlife of Lake Arenal, your tour continues with another remarkable surprise. You will visit and explore an organic fruit and vegetable plantation. Here you will have the opportunity to be part of a demonstration of trapiche, the ancient sugarcane processing technique. Then it´s time for a delicious typical Costa Rican lunch complete with fresh vegetables harvested straight from the farm.
Your special one-day adventure in beautiful Arenal continues with a visit to the hot springs pools of Tabacon. Located in a lavish Garden of Eden type of setting, the luxurious geothermal waters of Tabacon are the icing on the cake! These mesmerising natural hot springs are surrounded by the rainforest and offer a serene experience that will leave you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

Former Labour minister Denis MacShane is facing a fresh police investigation after he resigned as an MP yesterday for fiddling his expenses. Scotland Yard last night vowed to examine a report by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards which found Mr MacShane guilty of submitting 19 false claims ‘plainly intended to deceive’ Parliament’s expenses authority. But he could still dodge criminal charges because evidence submitted to Parliament is inadmissible in court.
MacShane was Labour’s pro EU Minister. Given how corrupt THAT institution is, I suppose the fact that MacShane was fiddling his expenses is no big surprise.
Nick a bottle of water – six months in prison.
Wear an offensive t-shirt, or be rude online about a footballer or Olympic diver – go to prison.
It has now emerged that a prosecution could not rely on Mr MacShane’s letters to Mr Lyon, in which he reportedly admitted the deception.
Clerk of the Journals, Liam Laurence Smyth, who is responsible for parliamentary privilege issues, said the correspondence was protected by parliamentary privilege which, he said, was essential for parliament to function effectively.
… see how it works, peasants? It’s good to write the rules, eh?
He was also probably the most pro Israeli MP in Parliament.
Looks like he had a foot in both camps!
MacShane’s real name is not MacShane – that’s why.
Oh yes, I see he was born Denis Matyjaszek. I did wonder about the odd first name.
I presume “Matyjaszek” is Polish for “dirty, thieving, crooked, traitorous scum”.
Denis Macshane has always been a horrible man.
He was fired by the BBC in the 1970s for pretending to be a caller, so he could slander a Tory MP.
He regularly accused moderate Eurosceptics of being xenophobes, racists and even Nazis. Even accusing the Conservative Party of supporting the massacres of Jews in the WW2 Poland.
He made bogus allegations of expense fiddling against Eurosceptics.

He bullied parliamentary staff.
He wrote an article about what “moderate Muslims must do”- then put it out in the name of another MP, Khalid Mahmoud.
Oh and Denis Macshane isn’t Jewish- but it does show how feeble the supposed Zionist conspiracy of Allan’s imagination is if their supposed most loyal MP has to engage in such brazen fraud for a few thousand quid.
I thought they are supposed to be “well funded”.
Also despite the apparent vast influence of Zionists, there was still no hesitation in Parliament kicking him out for a year.
evidence submitted to Parliament is inadmissible in court.
Parliamentary privilege is a key element that allows Parliamentarians to do their job. While yes it does occasionally lead to situations like this removing it would significantly weaken Parliament as an institution and prevent individual MPs from doing their job.
Guido Fawkes – MacShane might not be in the clear.
80% of Conservative MPs are members of Conservative Friends of Israel.
As for MacShane, he would sell himself to anybody – a thoroughly corrupt man.Annotation: This report contains maps and associated spatial data showing historical oil and gas exploration and production in the United States.
