Bad day at Bedrock!

Well yesterday was a day from hell. At 7 something in the morning there was a loud pop and we lost several appliances. Our TV, microwave, DVD player, portable refrigerator. We had a power surge.

The day got even worse. We called the electric company and they said it wasn't their problem. They said it was the fault of the park we were in, faulty electric from their end. I talked to the park manager and he say " What can I say", we feel it is the electric companies problem you better call your insurance co. Called the insurance company and they said well you have a $500.00 deductible. You need to get estimates on the value of the appliances. Called several appliance places. They wanted to charge at least $75.00 just to look at the appliances. So I checked online and replacement is going to be around $600.00. So, I guess we have to bite the bullet and play out of our pocket, but on Social security that is going to be hard. Plus we need gas money to get to Maine where our next job is.

So I guess it is just another bad day in Bedrock.

I am so sorry to hear that of such wonderful people. One thing you may learn from this is that the couple hundred or so for a good surge protector from camping world is worth its weight in gold.
Is that the same rv you had , it looks different for some reason? Well prayers are with you as that was not a good day but things will get better.
God Bless
