Maintenance Day
Adjusting the brakes, total grease replacement on wheel bearings, shocking the fresh water system. Took me over 3 hours! Sheesh! Well, amateur hour you know . . . Cuz you've GOT to cut yourself at least once. Then your grease gun has to go empty and there are no spare cartridges . . .

the grease gun only goes empty when you have dirty grease up to your elbows.
