Several of us have stayed at Ladybird Johnson Municipal RV Park, a city park of Fredericksburg. https://www.fbgtx.org/236/Lady-Bird-Johnson-Municipal-Park its near a winery, golf course and local airfield and about 5 min from downtown Fredericksburg. park has full hookups and shade trees . ( pix below is from last April for the eclipse)

Some pix from Acadia NP this week.

The drip line can be accessed in the basement (bottom street side) and above in the attic corner street side. You would need to remove the concealing panels for access.

We are in Maine which makes the last state we had to visit with our Oliver to have a blackout of the US. We absolutely love this NE part of the US and have resolved to come back again. Onward to Nova Scotia. Craig & Rose Hull 505

Just drove the northern section plus Shenandoah this week on our way north to Nova Scotia. Will plan for the Southern section in the future.

In April 2024 (this year) I had the factory review the repair. Jason said it all looked stable and they didn't see any further signs of fatigue or cracks. I'm keeping my fingers cross and carrying a rivet gun and stainless rivets in the truck just in case. Craig

I had issues where my battery box actually broke loose along the top mounting flange and had to be repaired. It sounds like yours is along the bottom. Maybe send a pix to show the issue? Craig - Hull 505 Here's that battery box thread...

Congratulations on your new trailer. We'll be in New Hampshire at Hampton Beach in October during our our around the perimeter trip from WA to Nova Scotia to Florida across to California and back to Washington. Maybe we'll see you on the road in NH in Late August or Early October. Check our blog down below in our signature for ideas for your future travels. Craig & Rose Hull 505

Thanks to @MAX Burner and others who shared their installation. I was able to install the upgrade today in a reasonable time without rushing. My tip after having done the install with simple connections.. "Do a dry fit to see where the wires are going to land and build a simple wiring harness." The Light and the Fan each have their own white and black wires, it would be nice if the fan company provided a pre wired header to plug those in to the light shroud with a long bare white and black out of the harness to connect to the trailer leads. If I were to do it over, I would make my own header and tuck it up inside before securing down the fan. I think the trickiest part was measuring to cut the extension tube because of the Oliver's slightly curved ceiling. Craig

Thanks for the tips.

We're going to be on the east coast coming from west. We want to get a transponder for the toll roads. A bit confused about Ez Pass and trailers. In some articles I see you need only one transponder but have the trailer also registered. Other articles say they just count axles. In any case - looking for advice from folks back east with experience. Craig

I believe you when you say it's tricky to setup all the various "booking sites" and having to save a number of various login's and passwords. Here's our coming season - August through December showing our Planned Stops....all but 2 are pre-booked. We started planning this back in December as we needed to book Florida sites that early. Used RV Trip Wizard for planning and a variety of other tools to actually find specific sites based on pictures of the sites. Hope you have a good trip. Craig

We've stayed 2 times at Deadhorse Ranch for a week in the fall. It's one of our favorite places to go as there are so many things to do and see within a short drive. The town of Cottonwood has a historic old-town with many tasting rooms and food offerings. Some ideas in < 15 min drive include: Tuzigoot Natl Monument Historic Jerome (Mining town) Verde Canyon Railroad Tour Old Town Cottonwood Wineries & Tasting Rooms including the local wine university. Day trip to Sedona is about an 45min. easy drive. You can see some of our photo's of the campground and area here: Site 8 - Deadhorse Ranch SP Tuzigoot Nat'l Monument Jerome State Historical Museum Verde Canyon RR Tour in Clarkdale about 15 min from campground

Thanks for the heads up...order on its way. I'll review the initial post before installing and provide any updates on hull 505 installation. We're preparing for a trip from Seattle Area all the way to Nova Scotia then down to Florida by Dec. Craig (Galway Girl - Hull 505)
