Hope Al's headaches are only because of motorhome stuff now…sounds like you've got everything taken care of and thanks for sharing about the insurance stuff. That was really great advice!

Having worked in Industry I know this well. The bump hat (Baseball Style) is meant to absorb minor hits that will cause Concussions and Abrasions to the head. As you said it also looks less obvious. I installed homemade bumpers on the bedroom slide for the same reason. I split swim noodles that are bright colored so I see them more than banging them.<br />The toilet looks good and since it is considered a manually operated unit there is less that can go wrong with it.<br />The Weather Channel is showing a return to normal temperatures in Florida for next Saturday the day before we head further south.<br />Be Safe and Enjoy!<br /><br />It's about time.Rick and Kathy Rousseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187734210342762674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012334620640049242.post-86351964897467023592014-01-26T09:06:18.440-05:002014-01-26T09:06:18.440-05:00I've touched on the subject of what "make...I've touched on the subject of what "makes a feller happy", or in your case, a "gal". (don't like that word for some reason) A working toilet is certainly one of them. That and air conditioning when it's hot out.<br />Tim definitely sounds like a "keeper". Some of the "RV Techs" I've encountered are certainly not of his calibre. But maybe I'm fussy, since I mostly won't let trades people into my house. Something's bound to get wrecked.<br />Whacking you head is never fun, and Al does seem to be a tad prone to that affliction. I'd go with the ball cap. Hopefully it's not too heavy.<br />Enjoy your day.

Use pieces of a rubber mouse pad under the mounting brackets. Or sometimes its just the waterline vibrating against something down there and a piece of plastic wiretie to secure it can stop it from making noise.<br /><br />~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*<br />Karen and Steve<br />(Blog) RVing: The USA Is Our Big Backyard<br />http://kareninthewoods-kareninthewoods.blogspot.com<br />~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*KarenInTheWoodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05884478307015605168noreply@blogger.com
