Did you know....Mosquitos
    
  • Like the people that have O type blood more then people with A type blood
  • When you exercise or sweat more the more likely mosquitos are to bite you
  • If you drink beer it is a green light for mosquitos to come get you
  • If you wear dark clothing it attracts the mosquitos more then light colored clothing

In a Hurry Carnauba Liquid Wash & Wax Travel Trailer or RV

Ever gone out to your camper and realized that it is in great need of a waxing but your arms cant take it?

Try this...mix some of this awesome smelling (tropical)  carnauba wash and wax in a bucket and fill half full of water.

Use an extended soft bristle brush...like a giant snow scraper (the brush end)

Wet down the camper and dip the brush into the wash/wax mixture and let sit for a minute or two...rinse off

Waalaaa TaaaDaaa  all washed, cleaned, and waxed. 

Now I had to use the good old rub a dub dub regular paste wax on the front cap since it did have some oxidation on it.  This carnauba wax worked great for all over the camper in a short amount of time. 

I used Turtle Wax Carnauba Tropical Scent....smells great!!

Re-Packing Travel Trailer Wheel Bearings Saving $$$ On Your Own

Ever felt like you did not want to wait 6 months to get your camper back from having the wheel bearings changed?

I know that you have thought oh my goodness paying $400 +....Really

I did and I am a GIRL but I thought hey...done harder things in my life before. 

1.   Make sure you have someone to help you...make sure your trailer is on a flat surface
2.   SAFETY 1st People
3.   Watch lots of Youtube videos
4.   Run or walk maybe drive to NAPA and get some parts you will need
5.   Always replace the seals and get a roll of mechanics paper towels
6.   Invest in a "Handy Packer"  or 1 Million pairs of throw away gloves only .99 cents at Walmart.
7.   Step away and cool off if you have to...don't blow a gasket
8.   Relish in the thought that you just saved yourself over $350

Use the money for something fun like....CAMPING
