We lost our rear hatch cover during our New England trip, somewhere near Albany. We replaced the temporary cover we cobbled together with a new one we made yesterday using aluminum frame extrusions and Alclad from VTS. Thanks again Steve for continually growing your inventory. The extrusions worked very well.

On my first long trip with the new FC, our water heater flue grille assembly departed the access door. Camper Clinic II in Buda TX mailed me a new one under warranty, and I installed it today.

I think the aftermarket insect screen they installed added a lot of drag, and the slipstream pulled it off.Click image for larger version

Thanks to all for the kind words about our RV port in NC...we owe great thanks to a member of the forum who posted a pic of one he had built...we took a picture of his to the permitting office and they loved it- no plans necessary- just the picture! Tom Montgomery was kind enough to also share the dimensions of what he did on his and what he liked and what he would change. What a wonderful community on this forum. Next year's project is a small room with washer and dryer!

My wife had a blue townie 21 speed I bought her during college. She loved it, nice choice. They are a little heavy for hills but they look great. Recommend their fender covers to keep the spray and mud at bay if she needs anything else

for my 1973 Overlander I put a new 7 way connector on it. I put on new brakes, and I got rid of the glass fuse panel and went with a new one. I will be pulling the fantastic fan and putting a new gasket on it.

What did you get for your Trailer today?

What a nice-looking place, congrats!

Meanwhile, we got a nice set of 24 lug nuts from McGuard.
