I've found a possible replacement already.

Don't trust anyone from Texada Island, they don't have a way to get a motorhome over there.

Well nothing darn it. I'm hoping it gets warm so I can measure my fresh water tank and put in a call to see if I can find the 100 gallon one to replace it.

I didn't check my oil after coming in from running hard all day to get home so want to check it. Going to change it anyway even though its way early.

Also want to check a hose, I think I just overfilled the radiator tank on the DP to full as I saw some drips when I pulled in the garage. It was to cold to do anything but rewinterize it and hook up the battery minder. So please let it get 70 so I can see if it needs to go to the shop or its just a couple of things hubby can fix when he gets home.

I want to head to northern Indiana in May and to Qunicy, Illinois in July both for a few days. We likely will head to Santa Claus land for a couple days this summer too.

I want to go to that meeting where they check for weight and what is the correct pressure for your tires, I never feel like I know for sure.

My best to your wife for a quick recovery.

i am working on a black water tank problem. i bought a minnie winnie used and to begin with PO had been using the toilet dry so i spent day before yesterday fishin old poo and things like wash cloths out of the tail end of the tank. then it froze overnight and the darn valve pin broke off when i tried to open it yesterday morning. of course its stuck shut and with prob a gallon or two in there. so today i am thinking of a way to get it open to drain so i can replace that valve. of which already 1 screw and bolt have sheared off.

I think what you mean is:

" New Bravura toilet going in as soon as FedEx gets here, and it's intact". Been there, cried.

Or...." New Bravura toilet going in as soon if FedEx gets here, because they normally deliver to a different house with the same house on a different street". Luckily for us, the people at the other house are either honest or don't like the stuff we order.

Yup ... we do that with regular USPS. Mail is delivered, we all go out, say "hey neighbor", open the box, then swap mail and say "see ya' tomorrow"
