I need to learn how to do that.

Retrieved my truck camper from my flood-ravaged Campsite in the mountains of West Virginia. Now to clean it up.

I think I may have passed you the day you picked that TC up on US 32 in Ohio. You could confirm that theory if you bought it in March/April 2015 from Mike Jones Motors in Hamersville, Ohio.

Did the AC/digital thermostat mod so that the digital thermostat can now control the Air Conditioner. Keeps the temperature more constant than the knob thermostat on the AC. Hardest part is neatly routing the wires.

Hey, Beer. So sorry. I didn't realize you got hit. Where did you have it? We are planning an early October trip somewhere local and I was going to hit you up for suggestions.

Hope it is ok.

Replaced the standard double pedestal tables mounts in my Northstar Igloo with a Lagun table mount. That made a huge difference in ease of use and being able to push the table out of the way when not in use.

Replaced the propane leak detector. The first lasted from the build in 2005 until 2012. Now the replacement was giving false alarms so it was time for a second replacement unit.

Resealed the skylight in my shower yesterday, just in time for the rainstorms that rolled through last night. Second time in a year, but last time I missed the bad caulk on the vent next to it and some water was leaking under that, to accumulate at the corner of the skylight and dribble down. Problem solved and the shower was nice and dry this morning. Time to start planning a fall trip to Big Bend.

I didn't do anything but I loaned it to my daughter and she just informed me that she replaced the mattress with a new foam one as she found the old one uncomfortable. I thought the old one was OK but I guess I have a new one now lol.
