Well shuckie darn, I should have known posting would come back to bite me.

First, one day I started losing P.S.I. in the LR tire - about 1 lb. every 15 miles. Sure enough it is a cracked rim. The spare is doing the job until I get the replacement rim.

Second, one of the pendant lights over the sink snapped the bolt that holds the light to the mount. It will have to wait until I return home and have access to the tools needed to fix it.

Third, on a curvy section of Hwy-101 in OR, I looked back and saw the big kitchen/entertainment slide was out about 6". Not the whole slide, just the front edge. Huh? Turns out the two 1/2" bolts that hold the ram to the slide frame had disappeared. I didn't have replacement 1/2" bolts, but two 1/4" x 20 bolts and nuts with Fender washers got the ram connected and the slide closed. That allowed us to get to the campground where i was able to get the right parts and fix it correctly.

Third, today I saw a small drip of water under the toilet drain pipe. It looks like the toilet is leaking either at the seal or the base unit. This is going to wait a few days until I get home.

Hopefully posting these problems won't result in more in my few remaining travel days.
