Thank you, Hittenstiehl. (174) I expect that will be the last time I try to post a photo. ( It was right side up when I submitted it!)
Pdavey, people have always told me i am different. But yes, it’s very pleasant here.

On the schedule, a memorial service, a wedding, and then see some Arkansas state parks..
(I planted that Norway Spruce last fall, it isn’t straight up and down, but at 1500 lbs, it pretty much was going to stay that way once I got it down in the hole..

Going camping in 9 days. Hmmm. I wonder if it will ever stop??

Of course not!

Good one!

Have a great trip.

Dave P, it has been raining in Pueblo for three days since we got here. No snow though. When we lived in Evergreen, we had 3" on the first day of summer. I miss the winters in Evergreen, but bring much older, I don't miss them as much. Summers were wonderful though (and short at times).

Hi Gene,

Given how dry it has been in southeastern Colorado, the rain is a good thing (particularly for the poblano peppers crop). We'll be around Lake George for fly fishing. Last year there, we got 3" of wet snow on June 3rd...

Enjoy your visit to Pueblo!

Gettin' ready to check a bad television antenna connection.

Nice to see the city of "Normal" up ahead, in the mist on the horizon!

Happy trails,

Peter

I had problems with the TV circuitry. I ended up routing coax between the plug underneath the dinette and the TV if I remember correctly. A broken cable in the wall is not worth it, so I hid the cable under the “sofa” and dinette seat. I had intermittent problems for about a year before that when hooking it up to CG cable. Good luck.

Hi, my antenna doesn't work at all now. I'm thinking that there might be a connection near the crank handle?????

Gene · 05-24-2021, 02:22 PM

In ours there was cover plate behind the TV with the coax connection. Behind it were wires going to (?) roof antenna and plugs under dinette for sat. and something else. I think it had a jumper on it. You could use rabbit ears to see what works where, or a coat hanger, use coax to wire to roof antenna from outside and to TV—I think you probably have figured this out. I found the plug under the dinette gave me a good path to the roof antenna. I had a second TV in the bedroom that always worked. Something near the main TV had failed. I think you have a signal detector and that could be good for testing. Or, maybe it is a good time for a shell off. Kidding, but I was parked at a CG next to a 1962 Airstream a couple was going to fully restore. I asked if they were going to do a shell off to replace the subfloor—their eyes got big and I guess they had never thought of that. Glad to bring nightmares to newbies....

Well said Gene!

A few more small steps with an eye toward a local CG trip after the Fourth.

Have a good weekend.

I had 8 months to build my camper pad waiting for my trailer to be built. Full hookups and 50 yards from the house. Its nice to finally not have an HOA.
