On the weekend, washed the roof with Dawn dish detergent as recommended for this TPO roof from Alpha Systems. Also, washed the sides with the Dawn detergent. That Dawn stuff got things nice and clean. Waxed the front, then I ran out of steam and time. The remaining sides will have to wait a bit for the wax.

Installed a new 24" TV and wall mount bracket. Over the weekend at a campsite, I waxed the two sides I had neglected in February.

Finally installed roof vent covers. Something I had been wanting to do since I bought the trailer in 2012. If I had only known how easy it was to do, I would have done it on day one.

Fixed water leak under kitchen sink.
Greased wheel bearings.
Put in awning due to winds both now and predicted to get into the 35-40mph range.
Emptied both holding tanks.
So much for a none working vacation at the beach

Fixed the Suction line to my pump. Looks like they ran the line, realized it needed to go under the bottom drawer and just pushed it flat. Hardly ever use the pump so it wasn't a big deal. I just like everything to function correctly.
From the Factory:
A elbow fitting and some hose clamps and it works like it should:

Installed a new 24" flat screen TV and wall mount bracket!!
The location it is installed now is to the right of the stereo on that narrow vertical face of the cabinet perpendicular to the window.
Here is the box showing the wall-mount bracket - $59 at best Buy. I painted some scrap wood I cut to size for the wall mount. I placed the wider piece against the cabinet face right of the stereo. Centered on top of that piece, I placed the narrow painted strip and then attached the wall mount bracket to that - of course all this extra wood was to provide a beefy substraight for the bracket and lag bolts to attach to.
The TV/DVD combo was on sale at Best Buy for $129. The HD picture is awesome! The TV only weighs 9 1/2 lbs.
Here it is in action - sorry for the blurry cell phone image

Just got done washing! It was a bit nerve racking working on a wet roof, but I got it done and am very happy with the results. She looks all clean and shiny again! DW got the inside all tidied up too. There's just nothing like a clean TT! Tomorrow I'll take some time for a close inspection of all the sealant, got my tube of dicor ready and waiting!

Check compatibility of Dicor with your roof product. Recent posts/ debates about "alpha roof systems" needing different sealant product
Not sure what type of roof you have.
My 2014 Eagle is Alpha roof, not traditional rubber roof product. Has orange peal texture.

Mine is Alpha. According to several posts on various forums, Dicor is compatible with Alpha roof systems. Apparently, the sealant that Alpha technically recommends is not readily available, so they say okay to use Dicor. But you bring up an excellent point, and I will do more research tomorrow...

Took it back to the storage lot.
I'm always sad driving away from the storage lot. It's all clean though and ready for the next trip at the end of May!

Getting prepared to take out our first camper this weekend on her maiden voyage. Practiced going through the set-up and getting it stocked. We're all getting excited.
