My daughter snuck this photo of me when I was installing a new power antenna lift motor assembly. We are staying in their driveway with 50 amp and grey drainage. We plan on being here for a couple of weeks. It's amazing how long you can make a black tank last when you have bathroom facilities in the house!!!! Ladies check it out and let me........nahhh....never mind!!!! This is a family forum.

Honestly Rockin, it looks like you are bowing to the East, but I looked real hard and do not see one of those magic carpets.

You right Virgil. It would have got UGLY if we would have had to see him in shorts, knee pads and the black bag that he carried his magic tools in. Or maybe the bag is his magic carpet

At his age he should have taken the elevator instead of those dangerous ladders! Of course age is relative since my 24 year old son considers us old. The only redemption we got was when he flew down to the campground 48 hours ahead of us to visit his grandparents. He told us he was glad to see "people his own age" when we got there as too many at morning coffee were introducing themselves to him multiple days in a row! SKIA isn't quite there yet! ;-)

Dave,

I hear ya......but I'm only 5 years older than you!!!

Sometimes I get under the Tug to do an LOF and have such a hard time crawling around down there....I grunt and groan and Donna comes out ask if I'm OK.....I say yeah I'm OK....she says "what are doing down there"? I have to think a few minutes and say "just lookin' around".....then after I see the drain pan.....oh yeah....I'm doing an oil change. Hell gettin' old....ain't for sissies that's for sure!!! Gettin' to some of those grease fitting at the top of the idler arm is gettin' tough, nowaday.....I dread having to depend on someone else to do that easy stuff....but the day will come....oh these passages of life!! rockin'

At least she doesn't make you where a brain bucket to prevent further loss of mental function when it comes to banging around under the coach and truck or walking under the awning rails!!!
