Serenity likely
needs a new "house" battery and the cupboard door in the bathroom
needs to be repainted. The house battery
was disconnected after our last trip in October but does not appear to be
holding any charge. Or perhaps the
connections need to be cleaned. Either
way it's something that needs to be looked at.
Another
area we were thinking of tackling is the TV as in removing it but then we
discovered that it's just a monitor but with DVD player, USB, and Memory Card
Reader so we'll keep it, at least for now.
But the antenna will go. We want
to install a solar panel or two on Serenity's roof so we can keep the batteries
charged without relying on an electrical hookup. We really like the ease and simplicity of the
peel n stick solar panels and they look to be about the right size to fit in
the space available on Serenity's roof.
More research is required and will be done. Then of course to really create an
independent lifestyle we're also researching portable generators of which there
are many in the market to choose from so again...research, research and more
research. And heck, it's fun to do!
Oh,
and we still have a Class C Motorhome available AS IS to the first person who
requests her. She's had some
modifications done inside and out and has not been started in well over a year
and likely has a few leaks to deal with but if you're a good do-it-yourself-er
she might be a fun project for you to work on.
And we're not kidding, she's FREE!
Something
else we are looking at is bringing ART into Serenity by finding things that
will fit into each door panel...we'll see how it goes...18 panels in all from
our count.
And
we have to change the bathroom tap--it's appalling! It does not stick far enough into the sink
for us to get our hands under so it's pretty much impossible to wash your hands
in the bathroom. As I was thinking about
doing this an idea came to mind on how to reconfigure the location of the
shower head and perhaps giving it a separate hot and cold water tap.
