Friday – Seaplane Base I hopped a shuttle bus out to the seaplane base Friday morning. It is always much more peaceful out there, away from the crowd at the main show grounds. Still, there were more people there than I have seen on any previous visit. Maybe the word is getting out. There […]

The very cold winter has turned into a cold spring but, Georgia and I made our first RV trip of the year last Friday. It was opening weekend at Fox Hill RV Park in Baraboo, Wisconsin. We always enjoy the Wisconsin Dells area, and we have been to Fox Hill before, so we took advantage […]

I did a couple more complicated modifications to the Kodiak this past weekend. These were not difficult but they weren’t just adds on either. Both took a little work to install. First, I added a StarLights LED fixture in the bathroom. We chose this particular fixture because it has provisions for adding accessories into the […]

I was finally able to get some work done on the Kodiak this weekend. The snow drift in front of the trailer door has melted. It was still pretty cold but at least I was able to get inside to make sure everything was OK and do some easy outside projects. Those Christmas gifts Georgia […]

It has been way too long since I posted on this blog and I am sorry to have been away. Fact is, it has been a long, hard winter and there hasn’t been anything to report about RVing, flying or traveling. We have spent the last few months at home just watching grandson Max grow. […]

Sewiepig??? My Christmas wishlist was mostly RV related and I got plenty of accessories I wanted. I will be posting details as I install them and when I do that will depend on the weather. One gift needs no installation though. I got a Sewiepig! This little pink porker weighs almost nothing and just rides […]

Temperatures here got below freezing last night so, it is a good thing that I put the Kodiak to bed for the winter a couple days ago. In preparation for that, I added a RV Pump Converter Winterizing Kit to the water pump. That makes it easy to run the antifreeze through the water lines. […]

The long Memorial Day weekend gave us the opportunity to take the travel trailer on a road trip. I added a vacation day on Tuesday to make it an even longer weekend. We hitched up on Saturday and towed to Elkhart, Indiana, in Amish country. The rural areas here are dotted with Amish farms and, […]

TV Spagetti

I don’t know who designs the TV connections in travel trailers but I have had to modify all three that we have owned. The Kodiak has both cable and satellite inputs on the outside. The roof antenna and cable inputs came into the TV cabinet over the dinette and went out to an outdoor TV […]

Here are some other things we are now carrying in the Kodiak travel trailer. There never seems to be an end to the wishlist. Mr. Long Arm is an extendable pole that we use for a couple things. With a hook on the end it is useful for reaching things in the middle of the […]
