Ready on my X17z! lines flushed, tanks sanitized, cleaned inside and out! We've been out once now, up in Canada, north of Bellingham. A little chilly, but ready for the next time! Just added a new trailering companion. Back to two, so they can divide and conquer in their trailer!

Just arrived home from North Carolina. Drove for over 3hours in the snow thru Maryland, Delaware, & Pennsylvania. Heavy snow, was watching it slide off the front of Trailer once we got out of the numerous traffic jams. Truck Bed has 2-3" of snow in it.
Drained the lines but just decided to turn on the Heat rather than re-winterize. Hoping with the 'Heated' Basement should be OK. It's plugged into my 30 amp box so it will last the night.

Me and my buddy just bought new campers, and the dealer told him he doesn't have to worry about sanitizing the water system for a few years.... That sounds crazy, I sanitized mine yesterday to be safe I figure if I'm drinking the water I want it sanitized...Not sure if it was over kill then but it makes me feel safer!

Finally the weather is nice enough and our schedules are clear that we are going out for the maiden voyage tonight through Sunday. So last night I tackled the dewinterizing process for the first time on this camper, and it was super easy compared to our old camper. lines are flushed sanitized and tank is full ready to go when I get home from work.

Have a good trip! I know what you mean about schedules. I'm not going to be able to get out until the last weekend of April.

Was planning on this weekend but now they are calling for another blizzard across Colorado this weekend.
I can't catch a break...

I know exactly where Cotapaxi is located. We are heading towards Salida area in July and we're looking for a place central to Canyon City, Sand Dunes and Salida. Cotapaxi seemed a logical choice. Heading for Texas late next week for family visits. Vegas first week in May.
Get ready to dig and have a good one!

Just got my Dewinterizing done yesterday. Still working on a few adjustments this afternoon and this weekend. Maybe we'll run out for a night at the local State park for the maiden voyage.

Doing it this weekend

First time on the new trailer, hoping to get it right.

Also hoping my boss doesn't notice I'm watching all these DIY videos. ;-)

Might go to the storage and pull the cover and put the battery in tomorrow... and just generally check it over.

Still haven't de-winterized. Each time I've planned to do it the weather wouldn't cooperate. This week is supposed to be decent weather so hpoing to finally get it done.

Ohio seems to finally be past the freezing nights, so we de-winterized today. Sanitized the system and ready to go!
