What did you do to your camper today?

[carl.swoyer]

Last night I did one very minor thing that I've been wanting to do for a long time . . .

There are two lights over the head of the bed mounted to the underside of the cabinets above the bed.

They have always bugged me as they are so bright that I hardly ever used them.

So last night I had them on as I was looking over some paperwork before going to sleep I decided that this was the last time these **** lights were going to blind me!

I went to the junk drawer in the kitchen and grabbed my square head RV screwdriver and reversed each light fixture so that the bulb was facing the wall on each side of the bed instead of toward the middle of the bed.

While it isn't a total game changer . . . it did knock down the blind me factor some.

Yesterday (Tuesday) also became my first official day of full-timers status as I signed the papers and closed on the sale of my house!

Even though I, along with my four kitties, have been living in the Prowler for almost three weeks now.

Guess that was my big news of the day . . . not the light thingy.

Bought a new 32” Vizio Smart LED TV for the living room of the Prowler tonight.

The 24” Vizio that was there is now in the bedroom, and the 19” Vizio that was in the bedroom will now be my outside TV.

Photos coming tomorrow!

Please post pictures

I’m on my iPad and I’ve never been able to post photos here from it, so I’ll do it tomorrow.

I’ll be doing something else for the Prowler tomorrow of Friday and I’ll be sure to post that when I’m ready.

Today I went to the bank and paid off the Prowler in full!

It is all mine!

Biggest check I've ever written . . .

Basically, I just popped the clear plastic lens cover off and removed the four screws that holds each light up, and flipped the light so that the clear plastic cover was towards the wall instead of the middle of the bed.

While they are still kind of bright, at least now the bright bulb isn't in direct view of my eyes like they were before.

Didn't take a before shot . . .

Awesome John - you own your home free and clear.

I re-keyed the outside cabinet locks @ $18 each. I dropped the four locks off at a local locksmith and they were done in one day and are keyed the same.

I installed a nice quad Battery box for my 4 six volt batteries. It fits fantastically between the tongue rails

I do now. I bought this from All Batery sales & service, it was $72 plus $23 for shipping.
I put a piece of 3/4 ply under it so it wouldn't get damaged by the regular battery holder

Looking good. Nice job.

This has been a busy "fixit" week.
First I discovered the baffle in the AC that directs airflow into the ducts had come loose....resecured in position.
Next, the door latch on the Splendide washer/dryer stopped latching. Ordered and installed a new inner door panel (it's 100% genuine plastic and the piece that retains the pivot pin for the latch disintegrated)
Finally, we joined the ranks of Hisense residential fridge owners who had a thermo fuse fail. Since Hisense doesn't sell parts I've got some ordered from Amazon. Utilizing a workaround in the meantime.
I may not be handsome but at least I'm handy!

Gotta love Red Green.

I'm getting new tires in the next couple of weeks.

Either Maxxis 8008's or I'm thinking of going with 16" wheels and tires...haven't decided yet.

I have a TPMS system on the trailer.

First time out it alerted me to a nail in the tire.

I put Maxxis on my Greystone when I had it. I was extremely satisfied with them. The Maxxis tire where some much better than the blowmax. I rarely had to put air in them as they held the pressure.

I've read a lot about and known several people who have had the Maxxis tires and have heard nothing but good about them.

The new Goodyear Endurance tires intrigue me, but haven't been on the market long enough to have many reviews.

I'll be hitting the road for a few months soon, so I want to make the right choice!

Installed piano hinges on dinette u-shape seat storage lids so we don't have to wrestle with them anymore. Next project is find the proper size spring struts so we won't have to hold them open when placing items in or removing.

Nice touch!

Might have to steal that idea from 'ya!
