Installed the battery and ran the shore power to the house for the season. My wife and I had today off so we prepped the trailer for its maiden trip next month. She lined the drawers and started filling the cabinets. I ran all of the appliances, jacks, awning, etc. Didn’t fill the tank just in case it dips below freezing again.
Can’t wait!!

Bought some lightweight rockers for the FW. Took it out on its maiden voyage for the next 3 days to try everything out. Towed it with a 35 mph gusty crosswind. Definitely a different feel that our previous TT. It feels really good to actually have it out!!

Thanks for the reminder. I've been meaning to add at least one more to mine.

Brought it home from the dealer after having warranty work completed (slide sticking, hot water heater leaking).

I may un-winterize once again. The girls want to head out this weekend since the weather is so nice. I've been sick all week battling some sinus thing and the last thing I want is to be away from home but we will see once they get home.

Well, water is back in the trailer, fesh propane tank on, both refrigerators stocked, and I just finished getting it in to our favorite boondocking spot.

It's so warm here that I actually brought the old generator with us just in case we need the AC.

As long as I'm ready to drive to church Sunday morning, I'm going to sit back, relax and enjoy the weather.

Finished up reading lites in bedroom, started installing Strongarms and when I took a break, checked the forecast and decided to hook up and move it out from under the big trees. (Yes I call myself a shade tree mechanic)
Ill post some photos when I get around to taking them.

First trip out with her and I managed to catch a low hanging branch and tore the top off the TV antenna. Thankfully no other damage though.

Took her out from under her winter covers and moved her from the side of the house to the driveway.

Checked out all the systems on its maiden voyage. Ran the AC units one day and then the heater and fireplace the next. Crazy! Then sat inside and watched unexpected light snow flurries.

First actual repair after 11 months of use and 65+ nights. Found that the 2x4 that anchors the support struts on the outside kitchen had pulled out of the floor. A couple of plastic inserts and I think we are ready to cook dinner. Actually can't believe I had everything with me to fix it while we are boondocking. (Slightly patting myself on the back)
