RE: Renewal Cards and Strange Address
Sure glad I'm old and have got rid of the MH and quit traveling. As my hearing is gone I don't even own a cell phone.
With GS going digital, I would really be in a hurt.
Just turned 87 this month.

fan Clutch on Diesel
Anyone on here had a lot of trouble with the fan clutch on a diesel engine.
I'm trying to do a little research for my son-in-law about his fan clutch.
Not sure of the Make and model on the engine, coach and year.
But I do know the coach is not 5 years old yet. But the Fan Clutch has went out 4 times. I don't know if it's still under warranty. I do know the first 2 times it was. We were in Montana first trip for the coach from Denver. The repairman said it was because of a piece of plastic someone forgot to remove and was stuck in the fan. Second time not sure of the cause. 3rd time the fan,fan housing and every thing came loose and came right out the side of the coach doing a lot of damage. The company that made the coach repaired every thing and blamed it on the repairman that fixed it the second time it went out.
That time it threw parts all over the road just outside of Amarillo, TX. This time they are sitting on a parking area a few miles from Grand Junction, CO. Waiting on a wrecker.
The coach is a High end one. 40 footer.
Just wondering if anyone on here had a similar experience. Thanks
Hope to post a little more info soon.

RE: For all you carpenters
I always have to cut a board 3 or 4 times and they are still too short.
Then I just get out my board stretcher.

RE: banana's
Wrap the end with foil, the end that they were attached to each other or the tree. It will make them not ripe so fast.

RE: How do I reach these clearance lights?
Go up on the roof lay down on your belly and fix the lights. Use to have a Itasca that had lights like those. replaced the bulbs a few times. Worked for me.

RE: jacks up or down
If they are hydraulic cylinders (can you see a shiny shaft extended when they are lowered?) then they should be stored in the closed/retracted position. Otherwise, rust will form on the shaft, and when retracted after storage, will damage the hydraulic seals.
I second that from experience.

RE: Preparing for isolation to avoid contact with Corona virus
I'm 86 and I just go on and live my life as I have always done.
When the good lord is ready for me it won't make much difference what else is going on.

A Christmas Poem
: A Christmas Poem
TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS,
HE LIVED ALL ALONE,
IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE MADE OF
PLASTER AND STONE.
I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY
WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE,
AND TO SEE JUST WHO
IN THIS HOME DID LIVE.
I LOOKED ALL ABOUT,
A STRANGE SIGHT I DID SEE,
NO TINSEL, NO PRESENTS,
NOT EVEN A TREE.
NO STOCKING BY MANTLE,
JUST BOOTS FILLED WITH SAND,
ON THE WALL HUNG PICTURES
OF FAR DISTANT LANDS.
WITH MEDALS AND BADGES,
AWARDS OF ALL KINDS,
A SOBER THOUGHT
CAME THROUGH MY MIND.
FOR THIS HOUSE WAS DIFFERENT,
IT WAS DARK AND DREARY,
I FOUND THE HOME OF A SOLDIER,
ONCE I COULD SEE CLEARLY.
THE SOLDIER LAY SLEEPING,
SILENT, ALONE,
CURLED UP ON THE FLOOR
IN THIS ONE BEDROOM HOME.
THE FACE WAS SO GENTLE,
THE ROOM IN SUCH DISORDER,
NOT HOW I PICTURED
A UNITED STATES SOLDIER.
WAS THIS THE HERO
OF WHOM I'D JUST READ?
CURLED UP ON A PONCHO,
THE FLOOR FOR A BED?
I REALIZED THE FAMILIES
THAT I SAW THIS NIGHT,
OWED THEIR LIVES TO THESE SOLDIERS
WHO WERE WILLING TO FIGHT.
SOON ROUND THE WORLD,
THE CHILDREN WOULD PLAY,
AND GROWNUPS WOULD CELEBRATE
A BRIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY.
THEY ALL ENJOYED FREEDOM
EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR,
BECAUSE OF THE SOLDIERS,
LIKE THE ONE LYING HERE.
I COULDN'T HELP WONDER
HOW MANY LAY ALONE,
ON A COLD CHRISTMAS EVE
IN A LAND FAR FROM HOME.
THE VERY THOUGHT
BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE,
I DROPPED TO MY KNEES
AND STARTED TO CRY.
THE SOLDIER AWAKENED
AND I HEARD A ROUGH VOICE,
"SANTA DON'T CRY,
THIS LIFE IS MY CHOICE;
I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM,
I DON'T ASK FOR MORE,
MY LIFE IS MY GOD,
MY COUNTRY, MY CORPS."
THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER
AND DRIFTED TO SLEEP,
I COULDN'T CONTROL IT,
I CONTINUED TO WEEP.
I KEPT WATCH FOR HOURS,
SO SILENT AND STILL
AND WE BOTH SHIVERED
FROM THE COLD NIGHT'S CHILL.
I DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE
ON THAT COLD, DARK, NIGHT,
THIS GUARDIAN OF HONOR
SO WILLING TO FIGHT.
THEN THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER,
WITH A VOICE SOFT AND PURE,
WHISPERED, "CARRY ON SANTA,
IT'S CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL IS SECURE."
ONE LOOK AT MY WATCH,
AND I KNEW HE WAS RIGHT.
"MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND,
AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT."

RE: How far is an object in a mirror
