It was 70deg. Here today and the beers sounds really good. We could sure use some of that moisture but I don't think it would like that snow. Hard to chain up our 320.

Buying some 6"x6" Tins to do a back splash around the stove top! Then hope to add some LED lights to the pantry and closets.

Made mod plans is all.

1. LED strip lighting for the pantry with a micro switch on the door.
2. Since I screwed up my entry steps I'm considering a four step replacement.
3. Swapping some of the outlets for the ones with USB charging ports.
4. Adding an LCD power display.
5. Upgrading the water pump to a higher flow unit.
6. Reorganize the basement.

Course that's all dependent on my getting the thing back from the dealer. Yippee.

Brought it back from the dealer yesterday after some minor warranty work.
Washed it this morning, hoping to go camping on Valentine's due to the long weekend.

Checked out the water heater to day and found the elec. side wasn't working. Turned out the relay on the 12v side had an open coil. $16.. Googled a new coil. Hope to see it before the weekend. It's pretty hard to get at. You know those engineers never had to change that part.

Stole swift2's idea and put an led strip above the light panel,LOVE IT ,also put one above the sink as one double bulb light under the counter isn't enough even in a small kitchen.Click image for larger version

We took our 5er to Camping World for a new shower sky light. They installed a new one prior but when we got home it was multi-cracked around all the screws. Hoping to head out for our first 2015 long weekend in a week and a half so we're anxious to get her back home.

I went to Lowe's this afternoon and got a few items...needed to replace the Carbon Monoxide Detector in the bedroom plus I did not like the toothbrush holder in the bathroom..brushes too big or the holder too small. Now we have a good one.....

Drove 60 miles to Camping World to pick up our 5er just to find out that they ordered the wrong skylight to replace the one they broke! This is about the third or fourth time they've done this stuff to us. Losing faith in this dealership big time.

Sounds like the dealer we bought our prior TT from, I feel your pain. 3 hours away round-trip. Twice I gave them specific written instructions - once to install something, another time was to diagnose a problem. Both times I went back to pick it up to find they completely messed it up. At least the first time they towed it back to me so I wouldn't have to go back again. The 2nd time I just took it and got a refund. Obviously I'm never going back.

Dropped mine off at the dealer to fix a door handle and power tongue jack that died. Coming to the end of my first year warranty and grateful we bought the second year!
