Loaded her up and got her packed for out yearly IH thing. I did notice some weird bumps on one of the roof panels.....will have to check that out when I get back. Maybe I will have to redo the roof after all.

Finished up the Pre-Luber and Post-Luber install on the 2012 F-350 and cleaned the Eagle Cap Camper inside and out. Loading her with groceries and clothes today. Departing for the Oregon Coast tomorrow for 10 days or so. So convinced spring is here we are hauling the Harley in the trailer along behind.
It will be a great SPRING getaway.

Installed baseboard heat. No need to carry a portable ceramic heater anymore when we are hooked up to shore power. The new set up is 100% quiet and out of the way.
Made an aluminum heat shield and lined the inside with heat resistant tape to deflect the heat out and away from the slide out overhang, carpet, and wood trim. Had the heater on full blast for about 30 minutes to test and everything above the heater stayed well within a warm to cool range.
I think I will like this much better than the portable ceramic heater that I used in the past.

I fixed the cracked trap in the bathroom sink drain, replaced the entire drain assembly, then flushed out the water heater that I drained last fall and replaced the anode rod, pressurized the system and checked for leaks. None, I'm happy to report! Next is the leaky grey tank valve, then the new roof, 2 tires for the truck, an oil change, and I'm off for 2 weeks exploring the Southwest at the end of May! Can't wait!! ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/smile.gif "smile")

Added Flow Rite battery fillers. Now I can add water to the batteries without pulling them out. Turned on the propane and tested all the propane appliances to make sure they are working for the trip to Alaska.
