Another quiet day. I rode the e-bike into Benson today and just wandered around town. I couldn’t think of anything I really “needed” to get done on the coach. I may re-hang the medicine cabinet door/mirror as it isn’t straight and the catch doesn’t operate very smoothly. Today is the “cold” day on the weather app with a forecasted low of 39°F but it’s supposed to be in the mid to high 70s tomorrow and through the weekend. We were thinking that it may be a good day to visit Tombstone, AZ. It is a touristy place south of here.
While I was in Fairbanks, there were some gusty winds here and the door awning was out for some reason. Some springs popped out before Bridget was able to retract the awnings and it now hangs a bit low now. The awning still works as the springs provide tension on the arms so the retract smoothly. I need a tall ladder to get the springs back in place.. The regular awning was supposed to have a wind sensor but I guess either it doesn’t have one or it doesn’t work. Also, there is a light on the macerating toilet to let you know when the tank is full. It doesn’t work. I think a white board and marker to keep track of the number of flushes would be more reliable.
I do need to pick up some foam as there are a couple of gaps in the slide seals. Based on what’s left it looks like there used to be a block of foam. I think I could simply glue in a chunk of pipe insulation and as it’s about the same density and thickness.

"Home" ownership maintenance never stops.
ReplyDeleteAnd a home that bounces down the road means even more maintenance.
DeleteDidn't realize you had a macerator toilet....
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, there's always something to work on with an RV.
Another thing in the minus column only for boondocking. It uses a lot of water.
DeleteYour RV looks like our VW van might fit inside. The size of your vehicle never seizes to amaze me.
ReplyDeleteKind of like a bus...
