Meryl and Me Hit the Road: May 2015

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, May 27, 2015. Interior Water Tank Fill Tube Nozzle. My first thought was to try AGAIN to fill that back tank with the city water connection - BUT that did not work. I came up with the following "tool" - and it has worked now two years in a row. I have been trying to come up with a name for this "tool". A long time ago a computer software engineer was working on a software tool that would enable the scanning of documents. He wanted. Now, this does not work with the tu...

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Troubleshooting on a Dark and Stormy Night. She was not talking about the thunder. There was a whining noise. A motor noise coming from the front of the van. Was the van engine off? Of course, the engine was off. Where was the noise coming from. We started searching around. What might make such a noise - and it started with the clap of thunder! Was there a surge on the electric line? OK", I said, "I am going outside! Clipping the fuse puller on the fus...

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Lubricating the Waste Tank Seals and Macerator. I was certain that I had written about this before, but searching this entire site I can find no mention of it. It is very important to regularly lubricate the tank seals in the black and grey tanks - and for those with Roadtreks or any RV with a macerator, the added benefit of the process is that it lubricates the internal parts of the macerator at the same time. 2) Flush the toilet with water. The mine...

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, March 18, 2015. It Isn't All Peaches and Cream Part 5. Here we are back to the "It Isn't All Peaches and Cream" series - now Part 5. Well it is covering a whole season from Spring 2014 to the end of October 2014 and I am beginning to wish I had wrote this as it was happening as sometimes I am not sure what happened yesterday. Well, maybe two days ago. Well that was the plan. Have I mentioned in any of these articles in this series - the drawer? The wood panel was pus...

Meryl and Me Hit the Road: June 2015

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, June 24, 2015. First Trip of 2015. You feel bits of the road in the Roadtrek that you don't feel in a car. Do not use WD-40 on fresh water plumbing! So - in at 10 am and out at 3:30 pm and off to the campground to a new site that we have not been in before. We arrived and checked in and started to find a level spot on the site. This usually takes a few tries but usually there is one that is close. Not this time. So out came the NEW ANDERSEN LEVELERS. The trip was goo...

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, January 21, 2015. It Isn't All Peaches and Cream Part 3. This is not my idea of relaxing. For some reason on this trip all of this was almost constant. On the trip home, I was just on the side of going out of my mind with the noises. Meryl hears them too. It is not just me. And then to top it off the kitchen drawer would not stay closed. It was sliding open and that was adding more noises to the other noises. END OF PART 3. Wednesday, January 7, 2015. End of Part 2.

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, September 17, 2014. The Water Bandit and Household Sink Hose Adapter. The Water Bandit is made by Camco, that makes many other RV accessories. There is another company that puts the exact same thing out except in a different color and that one is called the Water Thief. It sounds like these are made for stealing water but what they are made for is attaching a water hose to an unthreaded faucet or a threaded faucet with broken threads. Both are good to have if you eve...

Meryl and Me Hit the Road. Wednesday, October 29, 2014. A Better Way to Level a Roadtrek. During this past summer I learned about a new type of leveling device that can be used with a Roadtrek or any RV or travel trailer. They are called Camper Levelers (3604) and are made by a company named Andersen Hitches. When I first saw these on the Internet and the company video about how they work ( video link. So what makes these levelers different? Together under the tire, the two parts will be like this -.
