- BJeanExplorerMoved a lot of SNOW in order to get to unit and run it,
- snowdanceExplorerWe drove 50 miles north to Medford, Or. Over the Siskiyou pass. Did some shopping. Filled the fuel tank at Costco. Had an Awning shop field guy from Brookings, Or. meet us at a Good Sam park and install a rebuilt awning with new material for less than half the new price. And made the 50 mile trip home.. After months of setting it ran great.
Come on spring. - oldtrucker63ExplorerI started the old girl up and let her run and believe it or not it was warm enough outside, 56 deg. Today so the thermostat would kick in on the roof AC unit so I ran the AC for about 30 mins,.....And I also have to say YES it sure looked good there EMD360 Nice cleaning job.
- JohnnybgoodExplorerI replaced the burner in the furnace and drained the water heater. We keep using it through the winter. 95 Damon Hornet 28ft.
- EMD360ExplorerSpring Cleaning! I rented a Rug Doctor and upholstery attachment and cleaned the carpet, couch, and cab seats.($50 with stain treatment, foam treatment, and cleaner!) Ain't she pretty?

I also shopped at West Marine for the first time! Bought 303 Aerospace also the 303 fabric spray. I'm going to treat the cushions and the couch next weekend so that the next time I spill coffee all over it will "bead up". I sprayed the graphics that I could reach and oohed an ahed as they took on a bit of shine again. The dark red is definitely coming off onto my rag and they are starting to peel a bit.
Also bought lithium grease. Has anyone been reading "Evolution of a Forum Post?" Hilarious, and good for a laugh at ourselves. - Pokey2ExplorerRan the engine for a while. Ran the genny for somewhat longer, with a 1500 watt heater as a load. Found no sign of any water in the cab-over after last night’s rain. Good news! Of course, the proof as to whether my recent paid-for fix was effective will come while driving in the rain.
- Mike__RoseExplorerPut on my hip waders and trudged through 60+ inches of snow to do my weekly check. Everything is A OK. Cannot wait to hit the road when all this melts. Have a trip planned in April, but at this rate it may be August before it all melts. Another 6" predicted for Tuesday:E
- rgrcpaExplorerPicked up my RV from the repair shop(s). Had my converter, four wall switches, the battery disconnect switch, the toilet seal, and the pocket door track all replaced at the RV repair shop. Had my tranny range sensor replaced and my oil changed at the auto repair shop.
Next is a set of front tires before we go on any extended trips. - RambleOnNWExplorer IIBought a new 8-year chassis battery, 950 cca. The battery we had was supposed to be new from the dealer, but after 6 months, after a month in storage the voltage dropped to 12.18V. Looks low to me so new battery in place.
- Starfire5ExplorerWe brought our new (to us) 2009 Outlook home for our "allowed" 4 hours (per the HOA). My husband washed and waxed the hood. Sprayed it off some more (still looking for that nasty salt from the road trip) and I made a ton of trips inside loading more stuff. Also took a big trip to Bed, Bath and Beyond and bought a bunch of new stuff. Boy, it sure takes alot of "stuff" to outfit one of these things. It's going to take me a month to get everything and then I KNOW I'll forget something! LOL :B Not sure when our first trip will be. For now, we're leaving it winterized, as we will probably get more freezing weather in February down here.
