Batteries done. Tore out some of the blinds, pulled down some curtains to wash. Fired up the Generator works well, powers both AC's no problem. Vacuumed and wiped down the inside. Took out the coffee maker and old cassate deck that were mountedunder cabinets. Found a hidden table and figured out how to swivel the front chairs.

Put a some bleach and water in the fresh tank. Water pump worked great. Except for th water pouring out underneath :break

Â Found a broken fitting on the water heater tank fixed that today.

Do have to fix a couple of outside leaking spots. The rain today showed a couple.

Next biggie will be the trip to the Hank Hill to get some propane and get the appliances fired up on LP. Â :drama

Its insured :laugh

Forgot to tell you I pulled the drain valve on the water tank... the pump will empty all 90 gallons in short order...

Actually saw you do that when I picked it up. Took awhile for me to figure out it was a push pull valve not a turning style :stupid

Ok. Going to recon the Propane Station. Nice its only a half mile away :good

Looks like I can tell where the leaks are coming from around the windows should be a simple fix.

Washed some of the curtains and that wasn't such a good idea they must have been a little sun rotted. Our new washing machine shreaded them :laugh

Have to see what Goodwill or Savers has. Maybe stich up some customs :beer

Go with Tiki Theme

Propane has been added. Had a small leak by the regulator fixed that and then the regulator its self was leaking. No more single stage regulators allowed on the highway so had to pick a dual stage luckily had enough movement on the piping it went together just fine even though it was twice as long. Fired up the water heater and fridge. Had to do some adjusting on the wterheater to get the flame right. Fridge seems to work. Stove burns haven't messed with the oven yet. Tried the furnance it comes on but I don't think its heatinglots of air in all the propane systems so it may just need to be turned on a few more times.

All in all its coming along. Looking forward to the great outdoors :beer

Good to hear you got the leak sniffed out... :good

AFA the furnace, the thermostat might be a bit goofy. I always got it to work, but I had to mess around with the t-stat a little bit. Probably dust on the contacts, a little contact cleaner will probably get it working again.

Well things have gotten a little more complicated :rolleyes

Looks like I'll be learning another new skill.

My brother warned me about leaks on the rear of the Coachmans. Seems Cousin Eddies had one probably for most of his life. The rear bedroom is going to take some major interior wall rebuilding. Wanted to remodel it anyway and put a queen bed in it.

On another note, when installing a stereo, those little tags on the wires that say RF, LF, RR, LF, and common really do mean something. I know Sleek didn't it, but man who ever hacked the install sure had the system screwed up. Nw the fader and the balance actually work now
