Weekend project

A RoadAbode campsite sign

Made from a round of Basswood - first I created a black-n-white image on the laptop, mirrored it and printed out. used the printout to 'rub' the image onto the wood, and used a burning tool to etch the picture in. Pretty good likeness of a "Class C" After etching was done, rubbed with n eraser to get any leftover lines out, and then coated a few times with polyurethane spray. Will use on our next outing!

Went up 2 secure RoadAbode's tv better - it is quieter where we store her - and can hear more birds - than most campgrounds!

Visiting RoadAbode

Visited RoadAbode to take care of a few issues. Had gotten the parts in from PPL Motorhomes to fix the oven vent I had broken at Hickory Run, the bay door latch from a few weeks ago, and replace some caulk that looked like it may fail.
The door latch was the easiest of the jobs, just two screws and clean off the old putty, replace with new.
For the oven vent, Amy helped remove the old vent, place the waterproofing putty, and install the new vent.
After the vent, I went to the rear of RoadAbode and clean off some old caulk on top of the rear curved cap. I filled in with new self leveling sealant.
While I was on the roof, Amy took our bike back home (we temporarily had them inside RoadAbode, and had loaded them into the van when we arrived at RoadAbode this morning.
I finished up, cleaned up and just did some reading, listen to the radio, and enjoyed the scent of the wild roses and honeysuckle behind where RoadAbode is stored. When Amy returned with the girls, had lunch together, and then out for some holiday shopping!
