Searching for Wipers

Now that we are heading back to rain country, we decided to replace the coach's windshield wipers. What should be an easy chore turned into a marathon. The wipers on our Alpine are longer than average. We checked truckstops and everywhere we could think. Finally, we found a smallish rv parts shop called Cousin Gary's and bingo! New wiper blades. They are shorter than the originals but do the job. Hopefully, we will find the correct ones somewhere along the line.

After that, we were pleased to find a Winco in Redding. They have the greatest bulk food section and the best prices, but are only found in Washington, Idaho, Nevada, California and Oregon. So, it's been a while since we shopped at one.

That finished our day just as the rain started. Good timing!
