What Did You Do To Your RV TODAY?
OK folks, this thread is to tell about anything you did to your RV TODAY, from tightening the lug nuts to cleaning the toilet with a toothbrush to taking her out for the maiden voyage. A post about a mod is welcome but the detailed mod thread should be posted in the Jayco mods forum. So let`s hear what you did to the Jayco today.
PS- When Tomorrow becomes today you can also post, and the next day, and so on. Not just a one day thing.............

I saw a thread like this on a truck forum and it seemed to get quite a bit of response so I thought I would try it here. I actually just washed the Jayco, have a rally to attend soon and a Halloween themed trip as well.

Just opened her up to put some blankets in her, and noticed the floor mat inside the door was wet. I have been fighting a leak at the knob to put the antenna up and down. So I then grabbed a ladder and looked at the roof. Now my Saturday plans have been changed to recaulking the antenna. Boy, I can't wait! 2 weeks and we will be leaving for our last trip of the year. Bitter sweetness.

We set up our EZ up shade next to the trailer today. Tied it down with long nails and cement blocks. We will put on the wind screen tomorrow.

I filled the gas bottles and purged out the gas lines to stove and fridge. Also made sure the furnace fired OK, as our last trip this season is next weekend, and temps are predicted in the 30's at night.

As a direct result of the JOF thread on loose A/C bolts, today I will be checking them. See, even us old dogs can learn new tricks from JOF members. LOL

I just looked at my night stands and pass through storage to reply to a question about them in a thread. That`s all today.

Just replenished the frig with some more beverages, with outside temps dropping into the 20's at night, and 30's, maybe 40's daytime, looks like I may be spending some time inside the TT
