You will be happy with it. They are so quiet you have to see it vibrating or feel it to know that the engine is running.

I posted a pattern for a knit flamingo on the forum a while back. Found it at marymaxim.com, or do a search through my posts.

Got a PM from a lady who'd tried the pattern and liked it. Will try it myself when I have time.

Well I did buy two very important things yesterday for the AS. A water valve for the toilet that frozed over the winter and a new water filter. Now tell me that is not exciting and glamorous.

Paul sold me a National Luna fridge during my ADV days; they work really well and draw very little power. But man are they pricey. I would have gone with the option you chose if they were available then. The Luna also makes for a great bar fridge, so getting my money's worth!

I got these to use when I switch the Halogen bulbs from new lights I bought for the Bubble.

We ordered and received sealants, weather stripping and other items necessary to do all of the windows, screens and entrance panels. 18 yards of ultra leather to recover gaucho and dinette, 21 yds of outdoor fabric to make new awnings, bought curtain panels from ikea to make new curtains for the airstream. I bought a new set of dishes, placemats, and some plastic food storage containers. I ordered 2 new maxxfans yesterday. Tonight I got some paint samples to see if I'm going to like my original interior paint idea. That's not mentioning any tools.... man!
Wow! Start a new thread and show us your progress! We love pictures.

I have a description of sewing a new awning in our blog (see below my signature).

Thanks, the chairs were bought from Lambright Aluminum in Shipshewana, IN. I installed them, also built the new cabinets on either side of them and behind them, the console between them as well.
This is the 4th AS that I remodeled similar to this. This time, I decided to upholster the new storage compartments with Ultra Leather, instead of matching the red oak, or hickory cabinets...
The chairs are very comfortable...

I see your water valve and filter and raise you an external grey water tank and new slinky hose! Ah, the glamorous life of RVers.

Filtered water and indoor an indoor toilet are extremely glamperish...
I got a new parking space. It was monsoon season here yesterday and I had standing water in the back. I thought I would get stuck, so I parked it in the driveway in front of the house.
The only thing that kept me from parking in the driveway sooner was some low hanging tree limbs. The tree man came last Thursday.

Had a box made to mount under the trailer behind the wheels. It's about 6" deep, 4' wide and runs the width of the camper. Rolls out on the service side of the trailer. Sweet, sweet, sweet! My husband has more rooms for his tools and I'll have more room inside! We also had a receiver mounted to bumper to carry a rack for generator, bike, whatever! Getting ready for our trip!
