Taking off for Bull Run Regional Park later today for our
'dewinterization' campout. Will get all
the anti-freeze out of the system and make sure everything works. One
problem already - the toilet
won't hold water. Will have to take it up and replace the seals. Oh
well, that's why God made rubber
gloves, I reckon.

Hopefully I won't break something else!

Oh ****! I forgot to drain the antifreeze.

Try spraying a little silicone and see if it softens the seal.


Did that a couple years back. Worked well for almost two seasons. Tried
it again last season. No
luck this time. The seals have lasted almost all of six seasons, so that's not bad.


I have a tiny leak in the propane dual valve. New one is supposed to be
delivered today from the camper people. Under warranty. Does not look
hard to change and closest dealer is 40miles.
