Put new floors in today. OMG I cannot believe the difference they made. Tomorrow the gauchos get reinstalled and then I can start stocking her up with the new silverware, dishes, tablecloth, lava lamp, curtains, Airstream light string, and the other goodies we have bought over the past 6 weeks.

Got the Fastway one-step wheel chocks and Fastway coiled trailer brake breakaway cable. Pretty neat.
http://www.amazon.com/Fastway-84-00-.../dp/B00718VZ8A
I like the Fastway Flip automatic jack stand but I don't think it will go up inside our ProPride hitch yoke. Looks like choice of two heights now, 4" or 6".

I recently had the Hensley factory paint steel shot blasted and repainted the entire hitch. We'll see how the new paint job holds up over time.

Well here I go again presents for the AS. Solar power: 300W, 2 panel 150W each with Blue Sky Solar Boost Controller. Good to go in a week or so. Should be fine for what I need. Doing coast to coast this Summer.

We have that griddle and love it! I got the waffle irons from amazon and I'm happy with them.
Enjoy!

Dropped the AS at the dealer for its first warranty repairs. AS Northwest did a great job, switched the jack to facing sideways, and installed a Fastway flip jack pad, which lets me leave the wood blocks at home when trying to hitch up and raise the WD bars.

I scored a new ever pure mark 8000 water softener. Can't wait to take a shower tonight! Anyone else have experience with one of these?

I am using the Fastway Flip Jack with a reese dual cam and really like it. What would be the difference with a Propride hitch? I looked at pictures and the space for the flip up foot seems to be there?

OK... first use was a tank fill. 55 gallons of exceedingly hard water turned into nice soft water. It is soft enough to feel luxurious without that "I can't get the soap off" feeling.
Tomorrow I will add all the bells and whistles in the form of silicone washers, Ball valve shutoffs etc
Right now its a winner! I paid zero for this as I traded some UN needed parts. It is a year old only about a thousand gallons throughput. Even if it needed a rehab that would only be $50.
I am a very happy camper...

What did you get for your Trailer today?
TST Tire pressure monitor system
ACU-RITE wireless fridge/freezer monitor
CIPA towing mirrors
Wire shelving for the Bambi closet
5000# coiled safety cables and new breakaway cable to replace the funky old ones which were new with the trailer a month ago
Everything I could possibly need to maintain the exterior!
Oh and a Weber Baby Q 1200 grill which I cannot recommend enough if you want an excellent but small and very portable grill...
