Great time to be going. We left the east coast late August and by September when we got to AK it was empty and we could pick any spot we wanted. Enjoy!

Spent sometime getting our new to us 1999 Jayco B ready for a test trip.

Discovered the sink drain was partially plugged and managed to get it cleaned out. This is fairly minimalist so it doesn't have a gray water tank you're suppose to put a bucket underneath, so I was measuring to see if I could put in a small tank. Pretty limited fore space but I would be happy with 4-5 gallon. Found a place that I can put about 4 feet of 6" pipe which would give 5 gallons or so and a place for a square tank that is in a better location if I could find something appropriate about 12"X12"X8" which would also get me about 5 gallons. No luck finding small plastic tanks yet.

Also flushed the fresh water tank and re-filled and chlorinated. I will leave it a few days while I drive it to get it good and disinfected.

Put on the rear cargo rack for a camping trip this weekend. In the 8 years I have owned it, this will be the first time I have taken it to a campground hookup. Have only boon docked in it.

Trying to get the fridge to cool. Is it the higher the number (1-7) the more cold it is supposed to get?

It seems like the setting 7 is where the coldest is at. The fridge cooled down today. It is not ice cold but I am not expecting much from a 30 year old RV fridge.

That is one of the best times to come. It is possible that we will cross paths. Might need to go outside at that time.

Ran some errands outside of town in it yesterday. My dash air conditioner just repaired is working great. (JINX)

Traced a broken ground in my turn signals. Start a pain in the butt.
