First Full Day on PEI

Over the past few days our truck transmission has been acting up. In first starting out with the engine still cold the transmission has not wanted to shift beyond first gear. Once the truck warmed up all was fine. It’s a small issue, but not wanting it to blossom into a major problem Wells checked the owners manual thinking that adding transmission fluid would solve the problem. In the manual it says there is no dip stick to check transmission levels and if transmission fluid needs to be added then it needs to be done an authorized person. Next Wells called a local Ford dealer on PEI and made an appointment to take it in at 2 pm today. We feel lucky that it can be checked out quickly. As a result, Marsha, David, and Jeanne take off to explore Charlottetown while Wells hangs back and heads to the dealership. Transmission fluid was down three quarts so they added fluid and now it appears to work fine.

Once the four of us reconnect for supper we then head out to explore the nearby Prince Edward Island National Park.
