Oops again!

Installed the fantastic fan vent cover, screen door inside easy open latch, tandem axle Adco tyre covers, refrig vent mud dauber screens, outside levels, and coated all roof vents etc. with 303 protectant. Was 67 degrees and all was good until I put out the slide......nobody told me the bolt hanging down from the slide would tear apart the new wheel cover. Maybe I should have thought about that, huh? Love this newbee stuff.

Just picked my 28BHBE a couple of weeks ago. Notice you mentioned the Maxxis dealer, are you considering changing/upgrading tires? Had big issues in the Fifth Wheel trailer we replaced, shredded3 tires on the road, and replaced all with Load Range E rubber. I know the Fiver was quite a bit more weight than the 28BHBE, but have you heard of any tire issues with this unit?

Fixed my 12 volt issue, now 12 volt system works, caulked around the windows and a few spots on the roof; have been fighting a leak. Pressurized the water lines and checked the hot water heater. All is good after sitting over the winter. Next is to fix the antenna.

I crawled all over my roof inspecting roof openings for cracks and removed 4 gobs of pine sap that had fallen and hardened from our trip last month to Fl. Popped it off with a wooden stick, just like cold wax on a table.

I forgot to post the fact that I pushed the snow off my pup a few times during the winter. Snow season is finally over, so I'll be pulling it out from behind my parent's shed soon, and putting it up for sale. I'm not a motivated seller, but I'd sell it if someone wants to buy it.

Brought my TT out of storage and washed it at the house. Tried some Armor All car wash but it did nothing to the black streaks. Tried the Dollar Store orange cleaner many here have recommended and the black streaks disappeared! Also ran some AV cables from the television to the input jacks on the back of the Jensen radio.

Tell me more, I'm going to have to wash mine after our first trip to the beach this season...

I made a block for the front power jack foot to sit on. I had been using a 2x4 stacked on a 4x4, but the footprint was REALLY small, so I made something bigger!

removed, re-filled and re-installed my LP tank. Was going to open up the camper to air out and start cleaning inside some but the pollen floating around the air here makes it impossible.

Put seam sealer on both bunk ends then sat in it for a while just thinking about my next trip down the West Coast next month for 7 weeks.

Picked her up from the dealer after having her spring checkup and dropped her off back at the storage facility.

Got Wood?

Hello race fans,

My '97 Jayco Ford E250 Ext. Club Wagon was due for some TLC. Took all the door panels off and installed new elastic on the door pockets. Then sanded, stained original color, then top coated with a urethane lacquer., all door interior wood trim. Looking like new it is!

12VDC/AC TV is due to be delivered in a few days. Making a MOD that will have the TV in same spot, but be able to utilize the increased storage from where the old CRT type TV was. Original TV was a 13", and new one is a 15.6". Attaching a small brass hinge across the back of the TV, and then screwing opposing hinge to top of the wood where the old TV was and then attaching two small telescoping arms with lock set. There is a small frame like wood trim piece that kept the old TV from falling out of the factory spec'd sized hole, and I will be removing that piece entirely. I can lift up the TV and lock it in place while accessing storage. Yahoo!

Anyone have any thoughts on my upcoming To Do List?
