Shower updates

I made a lot of changes in the shower.
First we added a new shower head with an on/off valve.
But I hate standing in the shower and trying to get the
temperature correct while avoiding getting sprayed on.
So I installed this little valve right off the main spigot.



I then threaded a small plain shower head onto this valve.
Not only does this allow me to get the temp right before I jump in, but it's
perfect for just washing your feet or your privates while leaving both hands free!

Outlet move and USB Charging outlet.


There is this nice little table at the rear of the 28RLS between the recliners.
The problem was the placement of the electrical outlet.
If you put a lamp on the table you had to run the power cord around front to plug it in.
That was ugly and just didn't work for me.


So I found a spot on the drivers side rear of the table and cut a new whole.


And moved the outlet back there.


Then I installed one of these Twin USB/12v wall mount sockets
in the existing hole. (It's also available in white).

I had to run a 12v supply line into the table, that was a chore!



I ran a line down from the lights in the overhead storage.

Insulating under the bed

I realized that we were getting a lot of heat from under the bed thru the mattress.
So I got some foam board and cut it to fit and insulated under the bed.
It made a world of difference.

The beast and it's tow!

This is our 2016 Jayco Jay Flight 28RLS
and our 2010 Chevrolet 2500HD Z71 

We bought the 28RLS new from Camping World in Woodstock GA.

Camco Insect Screen on Furnace exhaust


On my last trailer we had Mud Daubers building nests in every opening they could find.
Not this time! One of my first purchases was this Camco 42144 Flying Insect Screen - FUR 500, it fit PERFECTLY without even having to use the springs to hold it in place. As a matter of fact, I'm not sure I can get it back off, it snapped on over the vent.

I got it where I get everything, Amazon!

Kitchen back-splash update


So the first ting we knew we wanted to do was replace the ugly wallpaper type back-splash with something more like real tile. My wife found this nice peel and stick and it was so easy to do, we did it while camping. You can find the Peel and Stick here on Amazon
