Hey Rod, just to make you feel all warm and fuzzy, our 5th wheel usually does develop some problem when just sits in storage when we are delayed in Ohio. When we are out using it full-time it does better. Now don't you feel better. :evil: :laugh:

SAFETY FIRST!! It may drive you crazy but it is worth it.
Whe we 1st got our coach(in june) I had to go to Ohio for a conference for work in july. We he packed everything. ropes, tarps, bungee, 12 ft ladder, Just about drove me CRAZY.
Well to make a long story short, we were out for supper, & was hit with a micro burst(mini tornado). Ripped the awning out of the wall, the arm of the awning came down in thru the roof. rained inside, thru the arm. Called ins co & they asked if we could cover the roof to prevent anymore damage.
Well Honey pulled out everything. Ladder, tarp, ropes, bungees. OUr neighbors asked if they could borrow our ladder.
He may drive me crazy but he packs & repacks every time we travel.

Re: getting ready for a trip
Actually no. We were surprised. Only having this coach(new to us) insured for 3 week. We loked like MA & Pa Kettle on the trip home. With the tarp, ropes duct tape, & everything else. ON the way home we got 2 appraisals. When we got here we took it out for a 3rd appraisal & it came higher that the other 2 appraisals. Insurance co accepted the one from here(home)
It took us 2 weeks to unpack EVERYTHING. & it took then almost 2 months to fix everything. Entire new roof, new vents & covers, cleaing the ceiling.
WE had the check b-4 the work was done. Just like building a house we gave them payments not the whole thing. All 18K worth.

Re: getting ready for a trip
Now Rod.....I was going to keep her going for a few days. You know how a woman hates a secret. We could probably ended up haveing her pay for the info and then I could have made the open house as is I can't afford to fun the genset its required one hour/month. Sniff, sniff.
