Well, I've done a few things since November to our 1990 Winnebago Warrior.

First, I ripped out the shower and rebuilt it, using new wood to replace rotted wood from a leak in the roof. I used the pebble-finish fiberglass paneling from Home Depot. It looks awesome! Better than new!

Second, I started ripping out the headliner, which is drooping and held up mostly with staples. Then I cut the same fiberglass paneling I used in the shower into pieces to fit the ceiling. I have 1/3 of the RV done - from the shower back.

Third, I installed a second Group 29 marine battery in parallel with the existing house battery under the hood. This should let us boondock with no problems.

That's real good. I too am a big fan of Home Depot repair parts for the interior.
I've started redoing my interior ceiling with white melamine paneling. First the sections around the AC unit because I had to pull out the old paneling and raise the ceiling backup because of rotten sagging beams. I cut new arched beams using three-quarter inch plywood. Once I had the exact shape of the beam I wanted so it would raise the ceiling up 4 inches, I then proceeded to cut out eight more out of a full sheet of plywood. Then I laminated 4 together and made two beams, or in front and behind the AC unit. The hard part was getting the beams in all the way to the walls without tearing up the top cabinets, and then finding solid support at the end it wouldn't bring the walls down. I did that actually 7 years ago. It also gave the roof enough of a curve that very little water rests on top anymore.that's when I started putting in the melamine ceiling panels. It really brightens it up in their. So you're one third done, I have a 79 roll along and still have two more pages of need to do items. It keeps me busy.

The first Road test to the high desert was a success so now I am preparing for the second road test out to Red Rock Canyon in the High Desertfor the weekend. :CWhile most RVers Head South, if you live in SoCal and like the desert. you head north. It looks to be cool sunny and dry until Sunday. going to find that yellow metal Gold with a few other friends. :B

Put in two new house batteries. Getting thing ready to head south.

I hooked up all TV, DVD, and satellite system, completed the wiring for the electric levelers and found the convertor panel.

Finished buffing and waxing motorhome. Looks better than when I bought it 7 years ago.

Staying in Arizona for the month. Spent some time today using a headlight restorer kit on my hazy 18 year old headlights. They came back about 90%. Looking good.

Well, the anticipated buyer changed his mind and bought a big Class A. So, it's still for sale. DW vacuumed and shampooed the interior carpet with her shampooer. Looks really nice. Waiting for a warm day so I can pressure wash it.

Installed a Cobra 75 WX ST CB radio in my Class C. May need to redo the Antenna adjustment. Still working on it but it's in...

Had a ton of rain here recently so went to the storage lot to check for leaks. None found, thank you, touch wood.
Ran the generator for a while.
Noticed the storage lot was half empty. Looks like most have abandoned the great white north for the sunny south.
Oh well, next year maybe if I can get some medical issues cleared up.
