Cleaned inside top to bottom
Cleaned AC evap and condensor coils
Cleaned roof
Washed outside real good
Waxed outside
303'd all seals and plastic parts
Replaced stove burner bushing
Etc. etc.

And, helped son wash bike and 303 his tires since he likes his assets just as clean. He's as bad as me.

Living in them takes a little extra toll on some things, so have to be a little more diligent to keep it looking pristine. Thank goodness I enjoy working on them.

Finally got a warm day so I got rid of that stinkin' mousehole on the side of the TT. Installed a 30amp Marinco receptacle/plug kit on the TT, from the outside. Easy mod but took 1 1/2 hours. Hardest parts were trying to understand the poor instructions and cutting thru the big black 30 amp cord. Now we are good to go with another mouse and bug entrance closed! Next mod will be to open up the old cord storage area for more interior storage.

I'm lying down inside my Jayco, smelling the air off Puget Sound, and getting hungry for oysters...

What Did You Do To Your Jayco TODAY?

Today I removed the outside refrigerator cover to inspect and clean the area.had a small wasp nest inside the compartment. got rid of that and decided to put screen mesh over the openings.I used fiberglass insect screening.I attached it with my hot glue gun. Looks good and it will keep the insects out!!! photos looking from inside out and outside in

Installed a Coleman digital thermostat, five minute job and it seems to be staying within 1 degree of setting. So far it is great!

Just got my 20 watt LED lights mounted on either side of my awning, switches to control each independently, switch to kill power to radio (but have other line powered all the time for presets) and lastly (2) 2-USB outlets. All set in an ARB style switch housing, cut in an opening by me right next to the radio I installed last month. Need to post some pictures/ write something about this soon

I hate the fact Jayco puts your main light switch in a little cupboard, so I moved mine today. Shower screen and switch took about an hour. If I were to do switch again, I would use a regular 120 volt house switch,.

Backed into a camping spot with a spectacular view.

Learned about cactus.

Gilbert Ray Campground next to Saguaro National Park in Tucson AZ

Now 3500 miles on our little well traveled trailer

I used Liquid Gold on all of the cabinets in the travel trailer. Looks good

I did the same thing a few days ago Bill, but I'm in Panama City Beach, FL. The oysters were great.

Got her back home and parked just before the rain started up again. So far two weekends out, and two weekends of rain. Hopefully not a sign of things to come this season. On a positive note, she's been thoroughly leak tested and passed with flying colors

Guys. What's the best way for dealing cracks in the plastic roof vent above the bathroom??? It's on for warranty work but they expect a month before repair. We will already be on our trip and back.
They told me I need to patch it in the mean time.
Don't want wanted getting in and damaging the floors etc.

I was thinking about a traditional roof protectant until they can replace it. It's almost like a rubber membrane to go in the cracks in the plastic.

It's temporary but I still need the vent. I'll probably do that this week and post pictures.

I used Flex seal on the shower skylight on my old trailer. It worked really well

Finally put the cover on it. Will only be on for a month or so, but decided to see how it would fit.
