Mike and Carol

The Suburban tank is simple and reliable. There is nothing about it that can’t be serviced by the owner. Parts are available on Amazon and most RV shops. I’m not going to change ours out, I like reliability when out in the middle of nowhere. Mike

Lake Catherine SP is one of our favorites! Mike

Our Oliver turned 10 last month. We will celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary this coming Friday. Time flies. Mike

Monarch Pass, June 2023. A week later it was sunny and warm!

My understanding is that the brake wires come that way from Dexter, Oliver just installs the axles as they receive them. Mike

Intermittent trailer disconnect messages have happened to a number of owners. My problem was worn wires inside the axle. Bryan @SNY SD UP in ND identified this issue first and shared his solution. Simply replacing those worn wires fixed the issue. I did go through months of troubleshooting and having my truck checked and tested at the dealer. The thread below is one of several on this topic.

Martin and Linda, welcome! You live in a nice part of Oregon. If you have questions, you’ll find lots of experts that will offer solutions. Mike

The propane cook top has been very reliable and works well for us.

I was thinking the same thing. You walk all over the “deck” then fold it up and it becomes an interior wall? I’ll pass.

Not sure about this one…. https://youtube.com/shorts/QOvTdqhmEgk?si=yu9p2qfs7fkid0ch

The Boerne Community Concert Band performed a concert in the town square yesterday evening. All patriotic songs, marches and songs of each branch of service. Also a nice rendition of Taps for our fallen heroes. It was a good turnout, lots of camping chairs and good weather. Small town USA. Happy Memorial Day! Mike

I like the windows. It would be interesting if they can be retrofitted to our older trailers. Jason does a good job in the video! Mike

I’ll be watching! I’ve got a preliminary route planned out in my head which includes the above in reverse order. It’s going to be another year or two before we can resume our long trips, though. Mike

The contrast is interesting. I don’t know how water could have entered our junction box, we’ve never had any kind of big leak. Possibly during its time in the factory? Strange.
