Forgot to mention that I bought a four-foot fiberglass ladder for the RV. When I was trying to line the window of the front door with something to shade it, I couldn't get near high enough. I borrowed the Park's ladder but figured in the future, I might be somewhere where no ladder is available, so... I lashed it to the RV ladder permanently mounted in the rear outside the RV. It's tight! It's going nowhere. I hope I can get the damned thing off when I need to.
I'm washing rugs today, and have to go get just one more. On these rainy days, the dogs are "accidenting" a lot, on the rugs, thank all the little gods.
Did a little maintenance this week: vacuumed the RV using my little seven-pound Oreck canister. Man, I love that thing! It's got attachments for getting into Very Small Areas, is lightweight, and stores well in the dining area bench seat. Did some investigating into humidity, how it can damage an RV, and how to mitigate those damages. Chatted with a mechanical engineer, a biochemist, a woman who's got a doctorate in HVAC, and a former Navy submariner, all who explained, in language I could grasp, all about humidity. I noticed that, when I boiled some water for tea one day, every window in the RV fogged up, big-time! I learned that I should be venting the RV, even in a climate like Houston, to prevent humidity from getting to harmful (i.e., damaging) levels in the RV. I had been keeping every vent closed to prevent humidity. Live and learn....
Will visit with Camping World tomorrow to get that kitchen outlet fixed and make sure the tires are at proper inflation levels for the trip next Friday. Chatted with Cynthia and arranged to take the Murano to her house next Wednesday. Am still waiting for my meds and one other package to arrive at Cynthia's. Hoping....
