Installed LED awning lights!
Another project finally done!
Here are some pics:
Klus channel for holding the LED strip light
"Porch" light housing - we used the wires to power the wifi RGB controller
Hole that we drilled from the "porch" light housing thru to the "pantry"
The wires from the LED strip light connect to the white RGB cable behind the awning arm and then the cable runs to the "porch" light housing
Final look - already got a compliment from a neighbor and we're not even camping yet, lol!

Wish I could do that. My HOA would go nuts, and the side of the house is too much like a swamp and too uneven. To be honest the neighbors would probably be fine with it tho ;-)

Got rid of the side yard, removed some old tree stumps, moved some rock, did a little excavation and brought in roughly 32 tons of rock.
I did a lot of prep work but hired a contractor to move dirt, remove stumps and bring in the rock and pack it. Now to add a 110 outlet on the side of the house.

Looks nice there Rook!
Do yourself a favor and at least make the AC receptacle a 30 amp.
This way, you can have a Man Cave and the wifey thinks you're out there working on something.

This past Sunday the wife and I got out and did a little TLC for the fiver. She got on the roof and put on the Camco Pro-Tec UV shield and protectant. I did my research and quite a few members here recommended it. Went on like a breeze. I dry lubed the slide mechanisms and put some 303 protectant on the slide gaskets.
