Steve is resting at Stuplich RV Resort and Convalescent Center

After a peaceful night, my darling Steveio woke up and was raring to go.  I had to duct tape him down to a lawn chair while he supervised me adding another 20 pounds of air to the tire.  The mystery of the flat tire is solved.  A sensor on the valve stem for the Hopkins Pressure Monitoring system had a bulging battery that released the air.  At least it wasn't a nail or something worse!
The Hopkins company has already replaced 5 or 6 of these now free of charge for me, but I am getting a bit tired of bulging batteries!   You would think they would find something that worked?   Anyone out there with a system that does NOT have battery leakage that ruins the sensors?  


While Steveio was taped down to his lawn chair, I took care of hitching up the Tracker and getting us road worthy.  He was feeling quite well, and didn't even need a pain pill.  It is a struggle to get him to elevate his leg though, as he thinks he knows better.  Ahem!


Oh, someone asked me about my signs.  Here they are.. I have 2 of each.  They have cardboard behind them so they stand up in the windows inside between the curtain and the window.    I have used the "Parked With Management Permission" ones a number of times, especially with shift changes of staff, not knowing someone else gave you permission already.

The "Campsite Occupied" ones help when you leave your already paid site for a few hours, or even to bring your motorhome to the dump station, and hate the thought of coming back to someone else on your site.  This can happen, even if you leave a tag on a post or a lawn chair etc. in the site.  So putting up a sign on the table and on the post is helpful to deter the next person from moving on in.  Many of the campgrounds we go to are first come, first serve sites with a self-pay registration post.  Then when a dispute occurs, you need to call a ranger out from the next office to settle it by who has their envelope in the post first.  No thanks... a simple sign can help alleviate that circumstance.







Steveio was feeling pretty chipper by noon, so we headed on out to Wausau, WI .   Our destination was the Stuplich RV Resort and Convalescent Center...  

We are gonna hang out here for a few days with our good pals, Mel and Paula. 
She made up a delightful dinner on the spur of the moment.  
We are now tucked in early to our rig, 
and I am keeping a close eye on my Steveio.
