Spring Refit

Just to tempt the weather gods, I'm re-outfitting the camper...putting the cushions back in, cleaning and repainting rust spots on the frame, installing a new dual battery setup (two 115 AH deep cycle batteries paralleled). I'm curious what others are doing or planning on doing for their spring setups. I'm up for ideas!

I inspected the roof sealant & used eternabond tape on any place that looked suspicious. Next will be giving the outside a good cleaning.

will be dewinterizing in a couple weeks, going to make a new dinette table out of plywood to replace the particle board one and change the leg system from the folding to a post-type with a floor inset.

Gary eliminated the water filter, which we never did use with the cartridge. He installed a by pass similar to the one for the water heater. Gave me more room for "kitchen" schtuff, bless his heart.

I bought 3 slightly used Max air vents at flea market the other day for $40, I'm quite pleased. Now it's to hot to get on the TT and install them
