Wouldn't you know it.

Spent a considerable amount of time today washing the 5er. Roof washed, gutters, all black marks scrubbed with awesome, even the wheels are shining bright. Went out a little while ago to admire the work and wouldn't you know it, bird droppings on the side of the camper already! UGH! They must have been laughing their feathers off watching me washing the thing, saying to them selves "here, hold my worm check this out...." and dive bombed the thing.

Guess it'll have to get spot cleaned before the trip on Friday.

On a side note, went to Costco today and they had some brilliant beach chairs for $27 a piece. Same as these so got 2 of them, probably will go back and pickup a couple more later on.

Awesome is an excellent cleaner/degreaser.

It is available in the US at Walmart and Dollar stores.

It is inexpensive and efficient.

Word of warning, it will remove wax from fiberglass and aluminum siding.

I haven't used this brand before, but they are rated for 300# so they should hold up pretty well. They seem very well built and they do recline 100% to catch the rays on the beach (which being very pale I will NOT be doing.)

There is an old saying "**** happens" lol. As for the beach chairs. Have you used that brand before? I always have the worse luck with bending beach chairs and probably should invest in some better ones than the $15 dollar

Already bought 5 of those with the coolers a couple months ago! Very nice chair too.

The birds usually set in the trees as I am washing the tt talking amongst themselves waiting for the right time to get to work.
