  1. Welcome to the forum. Like Herman said. The only thing I need to point out different is if you go over the one month you have to renew the hold. The hold needs to be done mounthley on the day it expires. Dumb way but it is the post office. Something to look at, if you have a PO Box you can just tell them you will be out of town and they (after stuffing all they can into your box) put it in a bundle you can pick up when you get back.😄 I have everything else set up so it can be paid online. We have been gone 3+ months before with no problem. Bill
  2. More information please. Is that the air bag under that plate? If it is the airbag under the plate what is holding it on on the bottom of the plate and at the bottom of the airbag. I would like to see the top of the fitting and a shot looking down into the plate. What attaches to the fitting at the top of the picture? That one may be to "deep" to fit under the brass "T" fitting in the picture. That is why I would like more pictures. That fitting in the hole may not have flats. It is possible the key is what the line that goes up in the picture is (flexible or rigid) and if it is strait enough to take it loose at the top (outher end) and unscrew the whole fitting and line together. That would only take a open end wrench. Bill
  3. I have never stayed there. I think it was under construction last time in the area. Stayed at Dellanera RV Park across the road and at Galveston Island State Park. To many good places to eat. Look at Nonno Tony's Seafood Kitchen, Willie G's Seafood & Steaks. Look around on Strand Street. Down by Willie G's look for the 1877 Tall Ship ELISSA at the Texas Seaport Museum. Bill
  4. Welcome to the forum. Let us know what worked or how the problem was resolved. Bill
  5. Best answer is to call the campground. Bill
  6. I would seal them with Dicore sealant. Look at the top of the windows and any penetrations on the roof. The seam at the front and back caps or basically any where you have a screw or penetration of the roof. https://dicorproducts.com/ When you start to repair,it will be important to make shure the areas are dry inside. Bill
  7. Thanks for posting the pictures. That is interesting. Buy any chance are there fastener/screw heads in the places where the material (Gelcoat/fiberglass) has popped out? That is better looking than it could be. This looks like a surface problem not a big structural problem. Bill
  8. These are not sanding disk but scotch brite buffing pads. Use the pads for prep and the click bond glue I linked to before. Bill
  9. John, Welcome to the forum. Yes you like to travel. When you are in town you might like to attend some of the more local rallys. http://www.redriverrovers.com/ Bill
  10. Lets keep this on track / about the OPs problems pulling to the right. Bill
  11. Ray, look at your jack cylinders there may be zerk fittings that need to be greased. It depends on what jacks /year you have. Check the manufacture for the proper grease. Keeping the shafts clean and lubed protects the hydraulic seals in the jacks. Bill
  12. Take her for a test ride.😉 Bill
  13. I got this information off Gasbuddy, Gas in Ottawa is 89.9 to 99.9 per litter. Diesel is 95.9 to 128.9 per liter. It cost $55.00 to fill the CRV last summer in Ottawa. Last fill up was $20.57 here. I made it back to the states without buying diesel last summer. I just looked the current exchange rate is 0.741843 to the US dollar. What I find interesting is it changes daily. https://www.bankofcanada.ca/rates/exchange/currency-converter/?lookupPage=lookup_currency_converter_2017.php&startRange=2009-01-03&rangeType=range&selectToFrom=to&convert=1.00&seriesFrom=Canadian+dollar&seriesTo[]=FXUSDCAD&rangeValue=1.w&dFrom=&dTo=&submit_button=Convert Something I have done the last couple of trips is to make shure the credit card company knows I am traveling to Canada. So they don't shut off the card. I use my credit card and they pay the Canadian rate for the bill but charge my account the correct exchange rate (with a small charge). This saves trying to find places to get cash. Whatever you do don't use a debit card as it will pay straight across. You lose the exchange rate benefit. You pay a $100.00 C. bar tab and it cost you an extra $35.70 US. No, I had no problem. I would start looking at 1/2 tank, it saves unnecessary stress. Bill
  14. You can get these on Amazon, you will need a mandrell if you don't have one. DocaDisc 30PC - 2 inch Roloc Sanding Disc Mixed Pack // Surface Conditioning Discs // Roloc Disc/Air Grinder Disc for Surface prep, Paint Stripping, Grinding & Finishing (Course/Medium / Fine) Realistically neither of the things you linked to are a good choice for this project. Bill
  15. Ray, welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new motorhome. If you put the information about your coach in your signature it will help to get better answers in the future. Ray is right on the money with his advise so I don't need to repeat it.😉 Bill
  16. If you absolutely want the elevator bolts to stay clean everything and clean it again with acetone then glue it on with this glue. https://www.skygeek.com/click-bond-cb200-40-acrylic-structural-adhesive-40-ml.html?utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=shoppingengine&utm_content=click-bond-cb200-40-acrylic-structural-adhesive-40-ml&utm_campaign=froogle&gclid=Cj0KCQiA37HhBRC8ARIsAPWoO0z1vc4qu0_LshowMoKksex8oLai4K_VZAIkxeZkWDcaR2vKK8xiHd0aAvTqEALw_wcB It probably won't be practical to buy the gun and mixing tubes for a one time use. You should be able to mix it by hand. Do it quickly as you don't have much work life. Bill
  17. Welcome to the forum. I have been there in my toad but I don't recall any good places to park a big rig. There is a RV park in Carlsbad you might look at. When out at Carlsbad Caverns National Park the parking lot was fairley big but striped for cars and full. 4301 National Parks Hwy, Carlsbad, NM 88220, carlsbadrvpark.com, (575) 885-6333. I think we stayed in Vegas and drove out to the dam. The parking was like a big parking garage. I didn't see any place to park a big rig or even pull over. Good luck Bill
  18. I don't think so. look at the top of the storage bay under the shower. See if the floor under the sink is damp. there should be a acess panel at the bottom front of the shower. Take a picture of where you think it is leaking. You guys realise that the wearing of white was started by people eating Beignets at the Cafe Du Monde? They didn't start out white but looked that way when they left from all the powdered sugar. 😄 If you have eaten there you will understand. Bill
  19. I remember the rally. If Jim S. spends much time in the rally room with the fire going we will be calling him "Smokey Jim" 😄. Bill
  20. Happy New Year. Well it should be hot as long as you are hooked up to shore power or on generator power. The recovery time will be a little longer but should keep you in some hot water. Let us know if it is working. Bill
  21. That is a nice park. Last time I stayed there was several years ago. Stopped there because of a sleet storm. The small meeting room with the big round fire pit was a great place to hang out and keep warm. Bill
