Yes, we had planned to be on vacation this week and I would be writing daily logs of our adventure… although I think this time we would have just had small adventures and hopefully a lot of rest but neither will happen at this time, so things change.
I spent a lot of last week working on little things for the motor home in preparation for our trip… Mostly I had to get the antifreeze out, replace a plug on the hot water heater, flush out the fresh water tank and such things… I also made a change in the under compartment… Out unit came with a 3rd TV in the forward – under compartment… it was a good idea gone bad… you see we have a slide out above that area. The doors are also the raise up kind. With the slide out you can’t raise the doors to full height so the TV was basically useless once you got set… and we never used it anyway… oh I used it a couple of times to adjust the Sat dish but found it was just as easy to use the front one and peak through the window… and with the new tripod my setup is much easier… I didn’t get pictures of the before but have these to show the problem of the TV under..
Picture taken from a chair that you would use to set outside… the old rusty looking tool box is where the TV would have been – doors in the way..
Getting down to see where it was at… if I Need an outside TV will get a less expensive and much lighter flat screen and set it up out where we can see it…
I also needed to move some weight from the driver rear to the passenger front and this takes some of that in consideration as the tool box is heavier than the TV and no longer is in the back…
I probably should not show this but in the middle of this week Sherrie got a cataract removed and a lens put in… this is what it looked like the day after…
Note the big “X” above the right that is to make sure they know which one to work on and the black dilated appearance… hope it helps…
Next on the list is “HOW HOT IS IT”?????
Hot enough to melt the duct tape off your bumper and let it fall down… ouch…
Now to the change. No vacation, staying home to make sure Dad is ok as he had a relapse and is in the hospital again…
So goes our summer, just one issue after another… oh ad we got the bathroom done… so I can shower in my own shower tonight… a job that was to take 3 or 4 days ended up 3 weeks plus…
