Reservations Already!

I just made reservations for January 3rd at Pilot Knob for 11 nights under the AOR system.  Why so far out?  They owe is 11 free nights is one reason and we want to make sure we get the exact dates we desire. There we take care of our medical/dental  “stuff” down at nearby Algodonus, Mexico.  You might or might not believe this but we have a schedule almost by everyday through 2011.  It’s in jello folks.  It’s to give us, an RVer, something to go by knowing it will change at any given time.  As dates get closer we firm them up.  Only 4 things  are set in concrete at this point for 2011 and they are – Jan & Feb warm area, Gypsy Journal (Mar), Carol’s Line Dancing Event (Mar),  April & May along west coast probably then the trip to Alaska (May-Aug), Escapade (Sep). Everything else can and will change but we need some direction now and this is it.

Cleaning House (RV) underneath.  We will be back from California in a month so we are taking “stuff” out that we won’t need.  When we come back to Livingston for Nov-Dec we will reorganize “stuff”.  It’s nice to be able to store “stuff” here at my Mom’s lot.  Ten years on the road and it really accumulates.  Now it can accumulate and lighten our load being in the Barn we had built when last here in March.DSC_0006

Our compartments are either empty or half full.DSC_0001 DSC_0003

I checked the water level in my six 6 volt batteries. Four on the right and two more or the left.  Then two more 12 volt starting batteries right behind the four on the right. The 6 volts took on some distilled water.  I run them half way maybe a little more between the plates and below the plastic ring from the top.  A lot of people run them at the bottom of the ring.  I have found that it gases to much and makes a mess.  I might check these babies about every 2-3 months.  No problems.  These are a little over a year old.  Our golf cart needed batteries last year and I couldn’t see putting 6 new batteries in a golf cart.  So, I put them in the rig and those 1 year old batteries in the rig became golf cart batteries.  duh….  the device in the middle compartment are the electronics for our hydraulic jacks.DSC_0009

Mark was invited over for dinner as well as Frank was.  Marlene has gone to visit relatives in California.  We talked and made plans for Boot Camp.  Boot Camp will be here next month and then one in Congress, AZ come early February.DSC_0010

There goes Frank off in the sunset to be seen again probably at Gillette, WY come September. DSC_0013

Bud & Cathie did a drive by.  I think they got a new vehicle.  We liked the 4 door jeep but didn’t care for the poor fuel mileage.  Bud & Cathie live around the corner.  Since we were here first we figured they moved close to us because they wanted to be near us.  Yea right!………smile………..DSC_0014

Tomorrow I think I will test the movie screen for visibility in bright light – well maybe poor light.  We will be in a tent in Pomona and will try to simulate that. Hope it works.

See ya………..
