Well last weekend we were able to make it camping at Kiser lake one of our favorite spots. Weather cooperated nicely and the campground was fairly empty so we had a lot of space to ourselves right on the lake. We were going to go back this weekend but we trusted the weatherman that it would rain and hard at times. Well it's 2pm and so far NO RAIN! Nice sunny day but humid no doubt.
So I took the opportunity to work on the furnace project even though we are not EVEN needing heating. Needed to add a couple of ducts to the furnace but to do so I needed to pull the water heater to get to it. Then after removing it I had to cut (2) 4" holes to adapter the ducts. Whole project only took about 2 hours to complete but learned something interesting about water heaters. When they say you should flush or drain your heater every so often, I HIGHLY SUGGEST IT! See pictures below. I probably got at least a 12 ounce cup full of crap out of the heater. SOME OF IT LOOKED NASTY! Some clear jello looking crap! For the fulltimers out there take heed of this suggestion. It has been 15 months since we have been living in the RV and never once did I take the time to flush our tank. Gonna do it montly now I guarantee!
These first couple of pictures are for
my buddy Mickey, who is always stunned
at my fearless drilling of holes in the RV.
This mess came out of the water heater!
Well tonight I think I will cook some Catfish out on the grill. Have some baked potatoes and salad.
