Question Checklist needed

Well, I've searched the forums over & over, but I can't seem to find a checklist of things to check/do before departure. For example, raise the levelers, lower the antenne, lock the access doors. I'm pretty sure I saw links to other member's checklists before, but of course I can't remember where I found them.


Can someone direct me to such as a list?

Thanks in advance.

Here's another...

The checklist should be very cryptic and short, like the Airlines use.. You don't need a paragraph to remind you, just the word Antenna, for example... Easy to set up in MS Word, use brighter colors for the ones you forget or need emphasis... We use same list for setup or departure, dividing instead into interior tasks and exterior tasks... We stow our TV, for example, and microwave when driving...

Did you know you can isolate an individual post in a thread by clicking on the post number? It makes it easier to refer to a subject or quote...

It will come up like this Post #25 instead of having to scroll through the whole thread...

Wink One last tip

Cheryl, The most important is the last on your list:
Verify that all the trip participants are in the TV or the MH before leaving!

You betcha!
I went to summer camp with my church group when I was 8 years old. The bus driver left me at the gas station when we stopped for gas/potty break. Luckily, one of the chaperone's was still at the gas station so I got in her car. The bus driver must have drove for 15 minutes before he realized I wasn't on the bus. The worst part was that I was supposed to be sitting next to my cousin & she didn't even notice I was missing.
