A very heated discussion

As I sit here in my back yard wondering what all the other JOF members are doing, I remembered that it is the FIRST DAY OF FEBRUARY and it is time for me to remind the JOF members... PLEASE HOLD.... OK, sorry the energy being radiated by the big SOLAR thing in the sky caused my forehead to emit a little moisture that I had to dry it... now where was I? Oh, it is time for me to remind you'll of the following:

YUP!!!! IT IS....... time to check your RV

WOW...it is February 1st ALREADY!!!!

If you have already put your RV in storage (or are using it) it is

TIME TO CHECK YOUR:

- WINTERIZE where necessary!!! Hope it's not to late...
- Battery voltage!!!
- Battery(s) water level!!!
- Batteries terminal connections!!!
- AC air FILTER!!!
- LP Levels!!!
- TT Tire Pressure!!!
- TEST CO alarm!!!
- TEST SMOKE detector!!!
- TP (stock up)
- Replace your PEPPERMINT oil in your storage compartments.
- Enough BEER in Fridge!!

Have a GREAT DAY!!!

Don

Where did I put my beer?? Dang it!!!

The major notable fact in my world on this February 1st is that there is zero snow pack on the ground.....delightful and very unlikely in the midwest.

Ha Ha.. took it to the dealer for bearing repack and tire check.. It sucks to lay on the ground here and do those chores... with everything well covered with I and S.

Take off soon for south.. My question is how to get the big block of ice off the roof.. Without killing those behind us on the road.

High today 22 . F
Not so far from Phils `-4 C

The TT looks like crap.. it snowed today and now is covered in dirty snow..

Worse than that here in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana. We haven't seen bare ground since just before Thanksgiving, had another six inches yesterday, storm expected to bring that much again tomorrow.
I'm checking oil and gas in snowblower, not sanitizing water tank for first trip out.

Today I washed the roof and sides of my rv. Had to take my long sleeve shirt off, it was very nice.

I have been gazing upon Venus also at night while walking the dogs.

Turn the heat on max for about 4 hours.. may be enough to melt a the bottom layer and you may be able to slide it off. Worth the try.

We are headed for Vegas on the 18th, then east. The 5er is almost done with warrantee work. *yeaha*

But tonight in Northern Montana this is what we are dealing with. Not complaining (much) I have seen worse in Feb.

Please note this is in F not C

Hey we leave from Charleston on Thursday for Florida. We will spend a few days at Coastal Georgia RV park, then in Central Florida for a couple of weeks and back home.

Maybe a Hello might work somewhere along the way!

No where near ready

I'd go outside and get a picture of the fifth wheel but didn't want to go through the work of dressing for the environment like Matt Damon in The Martian. This is out the window just a minute ago.
