Getting old faithful ready to take out for NYS inspection.
 
We took full advantage of two 65degree days. Took the cover off. We had used bubble wrap and packaging tape on all of the places that stuck out and would rip the cover. The tape pulled a little of the roof coating off. Looking for a better way to stick the buble wrap down.. Washed the floor and put all the shampooed rugs down. Then we remade the beds with all new blankets. Next I put back all the toothpaste ect. Things that would freeze over the winter. DH installed the battery. I picked up a trash bag of paper off our storage lot. Then I lowered the trailer and we went home. I never remember doing these things in March!!.We went over today to rake up leaves and DH discovered I left the toggle switch in the up position and drained the battery. Jumped from the truck and it lifted. Presently charging the battery. Will see if I killed it off. Last year DH had to replace the switch and I forgot it works differently than the new one. Isn't hindsight a great thing. Now I will use my label maker..up,down and off. Next repair is to put in a new converter. DH is scheduled for eye surgery March 22nd. He will be on bedrest some and then a two month recuperation. We'll see if he has the other eye done right away or not. Probably won't get to camp much this year.

Yeah, we are going camping for 5 nights in 2 more weeks. Its been 80 degress here in Alabama for the past two days. I hope it keeps it up. Don't look like we are going to have much of a spring this year just as last. I've got to get started getting my outback ready to take out being that my Hi Lo is not ready yet. PS. I love my label maker :)

Getting ready for NYS inspection.
 
Today it was raining so we didn't go over to the HiLo. Called our HiLo dealer about a battery. $99.00. Not bad as some other places were$149.00. DH talked to someone at best converter and ordered a four state converter and a new fuse block. Should arrive in 4or5 days. Not sure if the battery is totally shot. DH says we will know when we lift the HiLo up. Made the labels for my toggle switch. The new switch is different from the old one. That is why I didn't remember the three positions. Corection...Four stage converter. Glad to hear you will be out camping soon.
