Screws

[DutchmenSport]

We're getting ready to hit the road again for another 4 month "outing". We're leaving on May 27. I've been working frantically around the house getting things ready for our departure. Now that the rain has ended and the ground dried up a bit, I switched over the John Deere from Winter (snow blower), to Summer (mower) and was able to mow the grass, except for one spot that STILL has water standing. Rebuilt our Chicken Run because rain collapsed it, and doing all kinds of things around the house.

In the last 3 days, I've been able to focus on the camper (finally) getting ready to hit the road again. I've got everything done EXCEPT checking giving it a bath and checking the screws .... specifically .... the screws UNDER the camper, specifically ... those screws holding the J-panel on. I've got some minor metal twisting up under there where no screws were at all or a couple have fallen out. So, that's my next chore. ... check the underbelly attachment .... lots of screws, foamy expandable "Stuff" insulation, Liquid Nails and Calking. Get things sealed up again.

So... when checking those screws .... don't forget to look UNDER the camper. They wiggle loose and fall out under there too! Then remember to check the foamy "stuff" insulation and plugged holes that crumble, and things get bent up sometimes under there from rocks, and stuff.

It's a never ending check-list of stuff. But all necessary if we want to keep our campers operational and looking good!
