Got tired of the glass sliding door in the shower. Pulled it out and replaced it with this

Extend-A-Shower Expanding Shower Rod - White Finish - Stromberg Carlson EXT-35-42 - Shower - Camping World

Gives me a bit more room when showering.

I got the Camco dual propane tank cover put together and installed. The power tongue jack is now installed as well.

Trying like heck to catch a break in the weather to get more done.

Took the rig on a 50 mile "exercise" run just to keep it "limber."

Installed the backup camera and wiring. Also a new battery and solar charger for it. Installed the new memory foam mattress topper I got for Christmas. Greased the wheels. And stocked it with canned foodstuff and drinks. Getting it ready to roll to Florida next time I come home off the tugboat the first week of April. All I got to do now is remove the antifreeze from the system right before we leave. Still too cold to do it now.

Got everything together for an oil change and lube. Waxed the left side of the "box" and did a general straighten up inside.

Just topped off my fresh water tank for use the next couple of days vs park water. Yesterday it was 84 degrees and right now it is 38 and dropping to 24 tonight.

What happened to spring?

I've been thinking of doing that one day. The problem I have in planning a space where I can install it is that no pic ever show how it has to be opened to change the bag and how much space is needed to open the bag compartment. You have any pics of your installation?

Fired up the heat and did some cleaning.

Also repaired the bottom of the large drawer under the frig. Last trip out the bottom fell down under the weight of pans that were in there. Re- nailed and glued, good to go.

Also re-nailed the door stop trim in the bathroom which had come loose.

Did some reorganizing in my storage areas.

Removed my battery disconnect switch which has failed, cables are now hooked up straight at least for the time being. Checked battery water levels (battery is original), all full and have never added any so these smart charger converters do work as advertised.

On edit: Went back out and removed all floor registers and sucked out the dirt from the duct openings with my shop vac. Hard to believe how much dirt gathers down there.

Cleaned the area around the AC grill on the ceiling which was dirty.

Opened her up to air out, swept, wiped down counter tops, and currently sitting under the unrolled awning watching the kids play in the yard. [emoji125] [emoji106]

I looked at it and wondered how long will it take the piles of snow blocking it to melt.

Today we picked our 2015 24FBS from the service department of our dealer after having some warranty issues addressed after our maiden voyage in February. Number one problem was the slide was not moving in & out smoothly and it ripped the rubber around it. They adjusted it, replaced the rubber seal and it works great now. Windows are sticking and very difficult to slide open. They lubed the sills and replaced a screw but still they are tough to open. I guess we have to open and close them to get them lose. Lastly the refrigerator's green light was blinking once every 3 seconds but they didn't see it. Unfortunately we were unable to test everything until we got home (lesson learned) because with the 24 FBS you need to extend the slide to get to the kitchen and they parked our trailer so tight we could not extend it to check it out. Drove home about 30 minutes away. Leveled it and sure enough green light still blinking. Hooked her up and back to the dealer we went. Luckily a technician came out and reset our refrigerator.


The last 3 weeks while our trailer was being serviced the weather was gorgeous. Today not so much but it looks like a week from today we will try again. Keeping our fingers crossed no more problems because we love our trailer.
