Well, we got pulled into the campsite and I'm setup for the night :-)
DIdn't go quite according to plan - ended up working a bit later than I expected, so had to skip the tank flush & refill in order to get setup at the campground before running out of daylight. Which was probably good, because it took me an embarrassingly long time (& number of attempts) to get backed into what should be a really simple spot :-/ Definitely going to have to practice that a bit more! Thankfully, on a Tuesday night in spring in Wisconsin, not too many other campers around to gawk :-)
Also - I need to remember to release the parking brake... I've gotten good at remembering to set the parking brake when I get out of the truck, but sometimes forget to release it when I get back in after checking my position. Oops!
Water pump was a non-issue -- turned it on again once we got set up, it ran for like 5 seconds then stopped. Kicks back on after the faucets are open, then shuts off quickly once the faucet is off. Probably was just air in the lines, or me being dumb & leaving the faucets open while checking things yesterday.
Furnace works great - which is good, since it's supposed to drop to 40 degF tonight!
Haven't tested the water heater yet - will wait until I've flushed the tank first.
Started up the fridge - if all goes well, I'll have some cold beers ready by the time my friends drop in tomorrow night!
Shore power cord was only ~25 ft - super-glad I was smart & bought a 25 ft extension cord, because I needed ~45 ft to reach the pedestal here!
Unfortunately, will have to uproot tomorrow to flush & refill - no water/sewer at the site. Guess I'll get more practice backing up again ;-)
Definitely have some trailer sway. Rear stabilizers are pretty rusted and will need to be repaired / replaced. Might have to look into getting some of those X-chocks or similar, too. The project list is growing!
@BubbaChris - not that I plan to do this, but why shouldn't I hook up to city water after I'm done flushing? I certainly recognize I shouldn't *drink* any water until the flush is finishe
