I replaced the gearbox and lubricated the slides and landing gear. Lubricated all of the locks in the side compartments. Cleaned fridge and freezer with bleach.

Actually this was yesterday and reported in another thread, but I installed the Norcold door retrofit support bracket. And yes, on removal to get a good look, my plastic hinge was cracked. And I have NEVER traveled with anything in the door. This Norcold was installed in early 2014 after the original one died. So cracked hinge in less than 3 years?

After returning from a long trip, changed the oil and filter. Gave it a well derserved washing. Repaired the sliding door between the bath and bedroom.

Washed her up, installed a Max Air roof vent over my bathroom vent, and most importantly installed a Progressive Industries EMS system. Prepping the girl for our trip to Lake George next weekend...

Pulled it from Kanaskat-Palmer state park out to the dam end of Banks Lake. Going to enjoy a few days, or a couple of weeks, of free camping on the hot side of WA state.

There's a three day limit where I'm at now, but there are a few free spots on WA state public lands just south of here that I might hit. And then, I could go to the free spot at Moses Lake, and after that, the nearby Potholes area has free camping opportunities.

I'm gonna work on my suntan.

Oh, and I thought I had a big problem when I opened up the cabinet door under the kitchen sink after I got my TT set up. Noticed some water on the floor. But what happened was that with the elevation change of going over Snoqualmie pass, then, quickly down through the Columbia river gorge, a bottle of glass cleaner decided to squirt out of the nozzle on its own. So luckily, it was no big problem.

Just finished replacing 20 "921" bulbs with LED lights. They were a bit of a tight fit but should cut down on the heat as some of the fixtures really looked like they had been pretty warm.

Installed A King jack TV antenna to replace the stupid Weingard Bat wing. Installed Max air vent cover on Front bathroom. Installed Fantastic fan Vent cover in Kitchen.

Adjusted the passenger-side slide vertical height, driver-side tomorrow. Too many bumpy camp roads this summer caused them to "drop".

Installed a bumper mounted receiver on our x23j for our new bike rack. Gratefully, the previous owner had bumper re-inforced to handle it. Off to Ol Cape Cod tomorrow for a week of r and r. Close but not retired yet so we don't get to use the camper as often as we'd like. Doesn't help that both I and the DW work weekends.

Finally got around to installing the Camco screen door bar. Took about 15 minutes or so start to finish. Pretty easy to do.

Nothing, but I walked out of it today in the 95 degree heat with a couple of beers in hand. Walked to the lake and jumped in to cool off. It felt great! Did you know that can beer, unopened, floats in a lake? Very handy!

Duke,

Nice! Does this work on a 30" door?

2017 Flight SLX 267

We're taking our new TT on it's maiden voyage tomorrow - which means we spent a lot of time figuring out how to best load our gear. However, I also installed a 32" LED Smart TV. This was not as easy as it should have been...
Long story short - no unnecessary holes were drilled or any other damage done. TV is mounted, level and ready. Unfortunately, my arms are too big and I can't reach behind the TV to set the locking tab on the mount so I may have to remove the TV for travel.

Installed 1/8" plexiglass panels in the screen door along with Camco screen door bar. Plexiglass panels allow main door to remain open while AC is running creating a large "door size" window in the trailer. 29RKS
