The first year I had to winterize after my first snowbird run, I emptied my MH.
OMG! I could not believe how many storage tubs I took out of it AND how much they each weighed!! Heavy stuff creeps up on you in a MH!
Also I found that the habit of having canned food on hand at all times for that 'rainy day' syndrome ingrained from your parents is hard to kick. When I emptied that MH and put the various cans into a tub? What an eyeopener how much THOSE weigh all together! Cans are no longer allowed in the RV.
I might have been within my CCC when I left but I'm sure I was well over it by the time I got back. :C
