Vortex and Paint

I got all the blue on the bottom of the Vortex today.  It went much faster than the other side since I used the backing from the other piece as a pattern.  I started putting a coat of blue paint on the Leader's cowl and right away the paint underneath wrinkled.  I let it dry in front of the stove, sanded it and gave it a couple of coats of primer.  After that dried I tried painting again and got the same result.  I am going give it a few days before I try again.  Lots of rain today so the Ferrous Sulfate is turning the moss black, it looks like I got a pretty good result.  Vera made spaghetti tonight, she didn't have any sauce so she added chili.  It was great, my new favorite way to have spaghetti!
I got several pictures from Mik, they are in Reno seeing James and making regular stops at IN-N-OUT.  We went there with James and they do make a pretty good hamburger and fries.

Now that I am caught up with my blog I did a little checking and we put 3789 miles on the motor home during the 33 days we were gone.  The motor home ran great the whole trip, I did a little checking of a few tanks and it looks like we averaged about 7.5 to 8 miles to the gallon.  The cheapest gas was at Costco in Tucson AZ at 2.08 per gallon.
