Happy anniversary Andre n Linda; and happy Monday to all.
Another fine day here in sunny AZ. Headed fior a high in mid 80’s, light and variable breeze. Perfect day to get on top of the Raptor and tear into the front AC. Pulled both capacitors out. Went into a HVAC supply place in Kingman. They tested the capacitors, yup the run capacitor for the fan was bad. New one…….$11.00. Went home and installed……..VOILA!!!!!!! AC now works properly again! Time to relax again for the rest of the day. That is what old guys do best!
All have a fine rest of the day.

Happy Anniversary to Andre and Tom. I mean to your respective wives, of course as Andre and Tom aren't a couple.
Today was Move Day. I was at Hebgen Lake in an NFS campground near West Yellowstone, MT. Now I'm in a dispersed (free!) campsite at 7,097' elevation near Earthquake Lake. I unloaded the Ranger at the start of the dirt road and used it to scout campsites. I had to go a mile (felt like three miles) to campsite #8 to find an empty one. I'm in a valley so the amount of sun time to recharge the batteries is limited. When the sun is out I was getting over 1200 watts from the PV!
As I was setting up, an older couple from Utah pulled up to hike the nearby trail. They didn't look very well prepared. Like maybe one of the ten essentials (water). I asked if they wanted to borrow a can of bear spray. She grimaced, acknowledging that she should have some. Her husband declined. Knuckleheads. I did warn them that it's hunting season (archery) right now. When I'm out in this area I'm carrying a loaded pistol with 17 rounds (it's only a 9mm, I need all the rounds I can get!) as well as bear spray. It also helps to have a buddy that is slower than me.
I've been dry camping for a week now. Black and gray tanks are looking good. I thought I might have to find a dump station by now. I guess I'm being frugal with my water usage than I expected.
With regard to the dump trailer, go black. Any scratches will be easier to cover up.
LOL at messing around in a dump trailer or me being romantic. Pretty sure we both drove by that trailer place and MY WIFE brought up stopping there on my way home. I can't help it if she likes trailers. I had planned on waiting to buy one, but she is giving me the green light now. I don't need it until camping season is over. Decisions...
I know that most here don't follow the NFL and don't watch MNF but the Packers trading their QB to the Jets. Him getting hurt before throwing a pass and being out for the season and maybe the end of his career sure makes you shake your head. The Packers are so lucky.
Watching my team crush the Bears over the weekend, in Chicago was awesome to see. Enjoyed every moment.

I'm with you Bruce...I didn't wish he got hurt, but still thought this was funny!
I made a deal on the black dump trailer. It's a Sure-Trac 82" x 14' long dump trailer with 14k capacity. It's all I need. He is going to install a spare on it today. I pick it up tonight. I'm excited, but it's about a month early. We are camping the next two weekends and then have a wedding to go to the last weekend of the month. So it's going to sit a while, but that is ok.
Don, I would kill to be able to walk out my front door and see that view every day.
Me too, beautiful!
