Got the camper loaded and heading to Florence, OR in the AM for the Rhodadenderon festival in florence. They put on a pretty decent parade and the car show at the Three Rivers Casino is good too. Looking forward to a little fun and sun.

Well, you'll get around 3 days of sun, Monday Oregon reverts to liquid sunshine for another week or two or three.

Unloaded the camper after a weekend trip and have two Fastguns that warranty will take care of. Adjusting nut has galled Completely STUCK on one, and the other required extreme force (24" pipe wrench) to adjust enough to hold the camper to the tiedown. On the one that was completely stuck, I cut the SS rod and added a Tractor Supply 1/2" turnbuckle to get me out of a "jam" - pun intended.

I have had SS bolts and nuts do this before. Might add some anti-sieze compound when assembling replacement parts.

Situations and opportunities, I still get up on the mountain from time to time.

Built a window screen for the sliding window on my son's Lance 820. Window slides into grooves on the side pieces to hold in place. This should keep those pesky mosquitoes and other bugs out!
