Easter With a Broken Awning

What a bright and beautiful day. It is Easter and the Bunny came and went and we are up and Easter Egg hunting time and time again.
After the hunt and breakfast we decided to sit outside and enjoy the warm sunshine. Sherri playing her game and me reading my book. Gee the sun sure is hot let's put out the awning and sit in the shade. The electric awning went out just fine but when we decided to move down to the beach to get some sun we tried to put it in and nothing happen.
OK it is Easter and that is when you want to have a mechanical problem. Absolutely no one is open and the likely hood of high winds and rain is on the horizon. That leaves only one thing left to do and that is to drag out the owners manual and see what Sherri and I can do to fix the problem.
The fix is noted in giant letters only to be done by a qualified service technician. I looked at Sherri and she looked at me and we both knew that neither of us was a technician of any sorts so we had to go to the page that says if one is not available and you have to get your awning in.
Of course it is written in technician language but we brought all our knowledge of the English language in and figured out what the heck they were talking about.
I finally got the awning where we could manually roll it up ourselves and it stayed for the time. Now I have to find a service person to come out and fix it.
This will be what I have to do come Monday morning. Hopefully they have a repair person's card up in the office that can come out and see about this...
