- RaftenExplorerWent out and swept the leaves and stuff off the roof. Then I decided to commit a sin because I an in NorCal, I sprayed the roof off a bit so I guess I will go without a shower today to make up for the water I used. Still can't use the TC because of the manual tranny in truck and bad knee. Did buy a '95 with auto so I can get around but no way I want to put the big TC on that.
- WNYBobExplorerI de-winterized the TC today. Things went well until I tried to fill the hot water tank. Water all over! See the picture of what happens when you don't winterize properly. I didn't pull the plug in the tank. It had over 5 gal. in it over the coldest February in Buffalo history.

See 4/14 post. - SangoExplorerLoading up for the Texas Rally.
- JumboJetExplorerWAXED it! I am tired. Up and Down the ladder many, many times.
It does look good.
Picture coming when I load it on the RAM. - trailgranny50ExplorerLoading the old Cruiser on the dually and packing for Texas Rally. Woo Hoo!
- jimh406Explorer IIINot just today, but for the weekend.
Setup a basic tuner for the truck. Hopefully, I'll get a bit better mileage. De-winterized. Helped wife added reflectix under the mattress and wife did most inside compartments and cut pieces for the windows. Lubricated the antenna, but I think I'll add more tomorrow.
Today, replaced about 95 ft of trim insert with super thick trim. That covers all of the edges. On the plus side, I replaced with much heavier insert. However, that meant that it was a longer job than expected since it was really stiff! In case you do it, do use a screen replacement tool. It's a little strange to get used to, but it will save your fingers. I tried it again after blistering my thumb and forefingers on each hand and still had 70 % to go. I should have tried longer to use the screen replacement tool. In case you are wondering my camper has trim along the outside edge all around the top. Still to do, add the caulking on the ends. - JumboJetExplorerDe-winterized and started the Spring cleanup. Will wax it tomorrow.

LMAO.... - MORSNOWNavigator IIIRemoved my single group 24 battery (NAPA RV/Marine) and installed new pair of 6v golf cart batteries (Duracell Ultra's). It was a little tricky making the connections in the box, but 3 times the AH made it all worth while.
- ggadwaExplorerYesterday returned from 6 weeks in Yuma AZ. It was getting way to hot for us. Last night was 8 degrees in Stanley...of course, I didn't get her winterized yesterday, so today waiting for dump valves to thaw so I can get her winterized again. Won't be heading out again until we get our Taxes DONE!!!
