Topic: What Did You Do To Your Class B Today ?

Posted By: KK&R on 03/15/14 10:00pm

Been doing lots of really boring, cleaning, maintenance, fixing little things, but today the DW and I installed a new propane detector. Probably a 10-minute job if you know what you are doing (and how to work in very tight spaces). I'm sure we had it nailed in under 90 minutes. [emoticon]

And for folks like us who like to keep things up-to-date, but seldom do, here's a bit of good news: The old propane detector was 10 years old and working perfectly. Tossed it anyway.

Changed out the way too large for the space dinette table with a white oval poly one with cup holders from CW....fits in the storage space next to fridge.
Redesigned the under bed holders for the original table to accommodate our folding outdoor table...and can access it from the rear door.
Discovered some great storage space under the love seat.

Gave it a good wash after our 7 day trip to Death Valley, Pismo Beach and Big Sur.

Well started converting my 10 passenger Sprinter to a class B, currently at the grunt work stage removing the floor, headliner and all other interior trim before stating to insulate!

Hopelessly Lost but making good time!
Cheers

Hi Folks,

I finished a project I started yesterday, putting three dish pans in my long lower storage area in my 2002-190V after cleaning the area out.. All three slipped in, the left one holds my black water stuff, the middle one holds my clean water stuff, and the right one holds my electrical stuff. I purchased all three at Walmarts. I then put Valcro under the holder for my awning center to hold it better. I also used Valcro wraps to hold the electrical cords and hoses together. Now I can find things.

Happy RVing,

Heapie

On my way back from Arizona IVan and I ran into an incredible swarm of bees. It sounded like pebbles hitting the windshield -- thud, thud, thud.

At the next stop I spent quite a while scraping dozens of bee splats off with a long-handled squeegee. The dry desert air had hardened the splats so I really had to scrub to get them off. There must have been at least 50 of them, plus dozens more on the back of the mirrors and I don't even want to think about the ones in other places. Some were still alive and buzzing angrily.

We got back onto the highway and promptly ran into another, smaller swarm. So much for all the time and trouble I had put into cleaning up the last crew.

At the next place I stopped, I had to search for a long-handled squeegee. I really appreciated how the long handle lets you use some leverage to scrub the buggy windshield.

When we got home, one of the first things I did was to order my very own long-handled squeegee. I knew I wouldn't have anywhere to store a 5-foot long pole in a B, so I was happy to find telescoping ones.

It's got to be a good trip when the only thing I can complain about is a bunch of suicidal bees!

Tomorrow, IVan gets a good bath. Then my B will be bee-less.

Hi Folks,

Today I am taking my RV for a ride south near Middleboro MA. There is a Roadtrek Dealer, Campers World, and Campers USA all in the same area. I hope to do some measurements on the Roadtrek Spare Tire holder and get some supplies that are missing as well as returning some things that do not work.

With Spring in the air, things are getting done. April starts our trips.

We took the Lab Cab van for a little ride over the bridge to Emerald Isle and the beach on a pretty, sunny day finally.

It was the first ride in the B for Hearing Dog Raylene. She seemed to enjoy it - wanted to be up front between us, of course. Have to work on comfortable spot for her. We took her for a walk on the beach - her first sight of the Atlantic (or maybe any ocean.)

(Love that suicidal Bee story above in this thread!)
