Latest Project

I have noticed that everyone is a little behind in their updates ~ and with no wonder. When Spring arrives it brings new projects leaving less time to play on our computers.

My latest project has been to prepare our 5th wheel RV for another season of camping. We hope to get out into the national forests before they are closed due to lack of rain. We have had numerous wildfires in Arizona already this year. Some fires caused by dry storm lightning ~ but most due to careless campers who fail to fully extinguish their campfires.

As you can see by the picture above, the first RV project for the year involved help from Michael to relocate the trailer axels to the bottom of the leaf springs with a net result of lifting the RV 4" to 5". This was necessary because our new truck is much taller than our old truck and without lifting the RV it would go down the road with the front of the trailer sticking high in the air.

You can see the results above. The nose of the trailer is still a little high but we didn't have any weight in the trailer, no generator, water, etc. When we do it should level out and ride perfectly. The new truck pulls the trailer without effort and is a joy to drive. Now ~ where in the world did I store all those camping items from last year?
