Ready for the Season!
Got the big girl out of storage this weekend and spent the majority of it cleaning inside and out, flushing/sanitizing water tank/lines, flushing holding tanks and doing a good go-over of all mechanical systems. Heading to the local lake, (state park), for Easter weekend and am so ready to get back into camping for the season.
Found and fixed a couple of minor issues. When checking on her in the storage facility, the door grab handle broke so we had ordered a new one and got it replaced. And while washing the exterior, noticed that the plastic exterior access door over the Norcold had broken one of the latches and was loose. Just ordered a new access door as the existing one is terrible faded. Added a Battery Tender last year to trickle-charge the starter battery when the coach is plugged in and sitting in the driveway or at a campsite. We use the dash radio a lot when working/cleaning on it or when camping to entertain the pup so sometimes when you go to crank the engine, it doesn't want to turn over as readily.
Everything else should be good to go! Hope everybody (that part-time camps) gets out this weekend! You full-timers are already there! Enjoy!!!
