Mount Vernon TT, Install Work, & A New Toad- May 11 - May 16, 2015

The Mount Vernon Thousand Trails resort just off Interstate 5 near Bow, WA is pretty nice. It is really wooded, with plenty of space beween sites. Kinda like a state park.



Yea! A mini-golf.




Big pool area. Too bad it isn't open yet.



Nice lodge.




Wooded and green.



Large spacious sites.



Here we are.



Rumble Bunny on guard.


We have been doing a lot of just 'kickin back' here. Donna is crocheting a big old gnome for Grandson Roman, laundry, a little spring cleaning, walks in the woods, and I just finished II Chronicles in my goal to read through the Bible in 1 year. And I worked on the solar/inverter install.
#/4 inch flex conduit to hold the feed to the inverter, and the romex that will feed the sub panel.



A new hole into the electrical compartment.



# 6 rounds for the inverter and solar controller.


There's the new conduit under the rig.


The sub panel getting wired.



Sub panel done.



One 10ga romex feed to go into the ac panel, 3 10ga runs from the sub panel to tap into the house wiring behind the ac panel.



Finishing the wiring in and out of the inverter.


It s coming along nicely

.Saturday, Tim came and picked us up and took us to their house. Besides playing with the kids...

Ryker and me.

He let us use his car to check out a few vehicles we found on Craigs List. We have been without a Toad for just over 2 months.

And...Gloryoskii!!!

We found one.

Our new Toad. A 2003 Jeep Liberty Sport.




Perfect.

Next is to get it setup for towing.

It is nice to be a little more mobile.

Kinda fun too!

  2. Yea! You got your toad! That will give you the freedom you have been missing for the past few months.

    I have to give you a lot of credit for tackling the solar installation some of those pictures look pretty intense!
