Quebec City, September 13-17, 2013


We don’t have far to travel so we have a relaxing morning with coffee and breakfast and checking email.  The weather is cloudy but clear and we have no problems finding all the roads and connections we need to get on 20 which leads straight to our campground in Levis, Quebec.  We will be camping at Camping Transit.  Hoping we have better luck with the power and WiFi than we did at the Montreal South KOA.  The skies are clearing more as we get further away from Montreal.  We should be having better weather in Quebec.

We made it to the campground around 1 PM and check in with no problems.  I had found a coupon for the campground on the website and got 50% one day’s fee.  There was a nice man who lead us through the campground to our site in the back…#213.  Nice pull-thru with full 50 amp hookups….which actually works!  The WiFi is extra…$2.00 per day.  We paid for two days and found it’s good for two computers!  The reception for the WiFi is very good so we check emails and investigated the area and Quebec City for our trip into the city tomorrow.

After putting out the roadside slide in the back I saw a strange mechanical looking piece of metal.  We pondered about what it could be and decided to remove the floor of the underbed storage cabinet to investigate.  It was a job removing all the screws and pulling up the board.  Underneath we found a long metal pole and wondered what it could be…part of the slide mechanism?  After checking it out we finally recognized it as the other slide brace for the front slide.  We’ve been missing that one since we purchased the rig.  The previous owners must have stored it under the foot of the bed and then closed the slide over it.  That thing must have been under there moving back and forth for a long time.  We took it out and started putting the floor back down.  To help Jim screw it back down I needed to lift the bracket holding the sleep number bed motor.  Unfortunately I leaned a little too hard against the wooden frame and popped a rib again.  OUCH!  That will not make the remainder of our trip a lot of fun. L  Lot of pain so I put some ice on it hoping to keep any swelling down.
