  1. There is an overflow as described in the Owners Manual. TO FILL THE FRESHWATER TANK FROM PRESSURIZED WATER: 1. Remove the cap from the freshwater inlet. 2. Attach a freshwater hose to an outside water source. 3. Attach the other end to the Oliver freshwater inlet. 4. Turn on the water source; fill until water starts to run from the freshwater overflow, which is located on the opposite side, between the aluminum steps and the refrigerator vent. 5. When the tank is filled, turn off and disconnect the outside water hose and re-install the water cap. The weep hole leak comes later. You have confused the weep holes and the freshwater overflow.
  2. Also, The leak is not isolated to any one set of weep holes. It always leaked out of what was the lowest corner at the time.
  3. Or, the mystery of the leaking weep holes. I hope someone here can help me understand what is going with the leaks from the weep holes. I will state what I know as fact. Some of what I say will be conclusions I have come to based on evidence and experimentation. We took off June 1st. I noticed the weep holes leaking the morning of our first overnight stay. It was leaking pretty good from the weep holes in front of the steps. It is not a stream. It is a drip, drip, drip kind of thing. I have looked everywhere except under the bathroom sink. No water anywhere. Clue #1. It only leaks when the fresh water tank has water in it. Fact Clue #2. The water pump kicks on about every 30 to 40 minutes when the fresh water tank has water in it. Clue #3. I am pretty sure the leak stops if I turn the pump off. I have done this a couple of times, and I am pretty sure this is true. There are no leaks around the pump. I have checked multiple times. I have been working with Oliver. We think a fitting has come loose. But, Mike asked me if we filled the fresh water tank until it overflowed. We do. So, Yesterday I filled it to 80%. No leak this morning and the pump did not kick on while there was no water use.
  4. We have 6 hours of alone time on 101 this Thursday
  5. That is planned for today. We got here about 3 yesterday and that placed was packed. The drive was great. Not too much traffic and some stunning views. We are staying at Cape Lookout.
  6. Hello to the Ollie on 101 heading north. It was about noon yesterday and we were about 20 north of Astoria, OR. I flashed my lights.
  7. Welcome to the family. I hope you enjoy your Ollie as much as we do. I had the same question as JD.
  8. Quick question, hoping for a quick answer. Is driving south on 101 from Westport, WA (or parts thereabout) to Cape Lookout, OR (on the coast, west of Portland) a bad idea? Is the road OK for pulling Ollie? Anything I should know? Thanks
  9. Someone with some talent could Ollie this up
  10. In some cases, particularly within certain RV or festival camping circles, a pineapple—especially if displayed upside down—can have a more specific meaning, indicating that the campers are part of the "swinger" or open-relationship lifestyle, subtly inviting like-minded others to connect.
  11. The badge/patch/sticker idea is great
  12. Last year we did a 4,000 mile trip to Lake Ontario and down the eastern seaboard. Hit about 8 or 10 spots, some stays were 3 or 4 nights, a couple were just overnight stops. We are on 6,000 mile trip right now, going from NM to MT to WA, OR and back through NM to home. We are hitting more spots this trip, with a 7 day stay, some 4 day stays and some overnighters. These have been our wanderings so far in our two years with Ollie. I think I am not going to do these meandering trips any more. I think I pick a spot, how ever so far, overnight how ever so many night stays to get there, and then stay 7 to 14 days in that spot, overnight stays back home to Arkansas. Our other trips during the year will be shorties within Arkansas, Missouri and maybe southern LA and MS. These short stays don't really allow me to set up a proper camp.
  13. I'll get you on the list Galway when we get home mid July. Thanks
  14. Look here to see what others are using.
  15. We are staying at KOA. I have relatives there and they have three days planned for us. Then we move west to Port Orchard, WA.
  16. We sure had some wind getting here from Curt Gowdy State Park. So far BB has been placid. We leave here in the morning heading to Kalispell, MT
  17. Just saw an E II headed west out of Cody WY on Hwy 14. We were walking along the Buffalo Bill State Park campground road. I thought they might be staying here but I guess they kept going.
  18. That is a good idea. I think that is what I would do if I went up there.
  19. I hope you have a great trip. I would love to travel without scheduling everything to a gnat's ass. Wave if you see us. We leave Sunday for six weeks
  20. We leave Sunday. We are very excited, and I am a little nervous.
  21. Nice looking grill. Keep us posted as you put it to good use.
  22. It was the best choice for us. I hope you come to the same conclusion. You forget about the high price in a decade or so... 😉 Here's wishing many miles of smooth rode for you.
  23. I was there a few years ago on my bike and stayed at the lodge. We have not camped there. View from the lodge
