As soon as it gets light I will check my tire pressure and reinstall my TST tire pressure sensors. I removed the sensors from my Designer when arrived for my summer host position 4 months ago. I want to give the sensors a few days of operation to find any low batteries that may need to be changed before I leave.

Washed the towels and sheets, turned off the fridge, closed it up and getting it ready for storage. It'll only be there a couple days though!! Then I get to bring it home again for our next adventure!!

Installed folding stove cover. Yay! I really hate the look of the stove without it and having it adds just a wee bit more space as an alternate countertop.

Installed a Dimmer unit for the awning light strip. I got the unit on ebay.ca. shipped from China or Hong Kong. 5 weeks for delivery. Was in - expensive so I got 2. The Dimmer is tiny and wired in easily at the light strip. I now have to separate the step light onto a different switch so I do not forget that it comes on with the awning switch even tho the remote turns off the light strip. A project for another day...
Next is cabinet lighting. I have the parts, just need a day to play with that project.
Happy Camping

Repaired a broken cord retainer on one of my Day/night shades. Then went around and checked all the others for future problems.

Adapted my Weber Q to switch back and forth from low pressure to high pressure LP with quick disconnects.

Yesterday I replaced the two left side brake assemblies, drums, bearings and seals. Used Mobil 1 synthetic grease. Rain today, but tomorrow looks good weatherwise for changing the right side brakes and hubs. I might crawl under the TT today and replace all the existing 12 gauge brake wire from the junction box in the front to the brakes with the new 10 gauge wire I bought.

Just finished installing the other two new brake/drum assemblies. Much easier replacing with all new than dealing with spring pullers and drum machining. And not too much more in total cost, either.

Installing the new wiring is the next project.

Emptied the saw dust from almost all of my overhead LED lights. DW added a shower seal around the top perimeter of the shower as there is nothing to stop water from going down behind the plastic shower wall. DW found that out when she used the showerhead to clean the shower walls and there was a small puddle of water on the floor near the fridge.

Denn888, thanks for the comment and the picture. We haven't had any leaks so far, but it bothers me that the shower wall is kinda loose, so I think I'll get the DH to do the same thing.

If this doesn't hold we'll probably use tub caulking next time around lol, top of the surround easily pulls away from the wall

Hey Smoker, why did you have to do a complete brake system overhaul, was there an issue or are you just upgrading? Just curious since our units are about the same age, though you likely have many more miles on yours.

Cleaned up and stowed everything where it goes for travel. I'm leaving my summer host site tomorrow for my home base. Where has the past 4 1/2 months gone?

Went inside just to check on things. Haven't had her out in awhile, but the big trip down south to Fort Wilderness will be here before I know it! 😁
