Just completed a new resealing of the seams, windows, installed Maxim skylights.



Heading out to Sarasota Florida tomorrow, first Grandchild is due on the 18th. Hope to stay there for several weeks. Ima’s old rocking chair will come in handy again. Ima South bound I-75 in the morning.

Replacing the Anaconda

Just purchased a new 25’ , 50 amp cord from e- trailer. Hopefully it will be friendlier than the factory version and free up some bin space. More to come after I receive it...

Regarding the chairs did you need to do anything to keep them from moving when on the road and did they cover the box or did that also have to be removed

Amazon

Bought a bunch of those resettable cable locks as well (those bars are $200 to replace) Use them on the sat antenna, propane tanks, tow safety chains (so someone can't cross them on their hitch and drive off with your toaster), etc.

Anti-Rodent Lights

Some Solar Rock Lights from off the shelf at Home Depot and some solar fairy string lights to keep the little rodents away from the toaster. I also sealed up every nook and cranny that I could find with some insect proof expanding foam from Home Depot to keep the riff-raff out. Lots of little small openings were found but one near the hot water tank was a full 1" by 3" rectangle shape that you could pass a pack of cigarettes through or a very large rat! When you opened the compartment door on the inside of the trailer for the hot water heater you could clearly see the ground through it. All of this should prevent me ever having a rodent problem.

Cheers,
Mitch

Window Poppers

Today's Project: Install Window Poppers

Available here: https://seeyoudowntheroad.com/pages/window-poppers


Airplant is from the local Flea Market and the wall art is acrylic layered 3D liquid Wave series by Anna Sweet. I picked it up from her Key West gallery but you can get them here as well: https://www.annasweet.com/liquid

I have an 18" x 4' long one for my 'sticks and bricks'. Looks like the actual beach.
