De-winterized the trailer today. I've been stressing about the waterpump since I didn't drain it and we had a much colder than normal winter this year. Turns out, the waterpump is fine, but the toilet valve ruptured. Good thing the valve is only $30. I guess I will be disconnecting the water supply to the toilet to drain the valve next winter.

Got the new Prodigy Brake Controller installed in the new truck as well. We are ready to roll. First trip in two weeks!

That's good it wasn't anything major. Last fall we camped much later in the season and I winterized each weekend we went out. I got a little careless the last time and discovered the outdoor showerhead had cracked. I bought a $3 replacement.

We're heading out this weekend and I shouldn't have to winterize again.
