Winegard Rayzar Automatic Installation and Review

November 14, 2018 eric

I received a Winegard Rayzar Automatic RV TV Antenna from Winegard for installation and review in our Smart Home on Wheels. The installation was easy, setting it up to work on our TVs was simple, and so far it is working well. We will post an update in a few months to determine how well it lasts in the Florida...

New video!

October 25, 2018 eric

Yeah, we found the horses. This time they actually came to the fence and ate carrots. Well, one of them did. We heard his name was Whiskey. That may or may not be true. https://youtu.be/fTtDrsdFQGA

Taking a month off

October 19, 2018 eric

It seems lately, I've been budgeting for a project each month. Some large expense to buy, work on, get all set up. For November, the large expense is going to be getting a chest freezer so we can better store food, clean out our freezer, buy in bulk so we can save money. The month after that, December, I think...

Getting food to us easily and affordably

October 14, 2018 eric

We live in our RV at a campground where I work in exchange for free lot rent and a discount on electric. We do not yet have a tow vehicle, so we get as much as possible delivered here as we can. We used to have a friend here who could take us to the store once in awhile if...

New Air Conditioner Installed!

October 13, 2018 eric

And it works! I was able to get a used roof mounted air conditioner. I had it sitting on our deck for a few weeks, waiting for the ceiling assembly to arrive, then waiting to get help to get it up on the roof. Once it was all in place, it was so easy to install and it easily keeps...

Portable Washing Machine Maintenance

October 4, 2018 eric

We have a small Gaintex Portable Washing Machine that we bought almost a year ago. It has served us well and we usually do one load of laundry a day to keep on top of our laundry. Since I am working during the mornings, I usually wash my work clothes when I get home, put them in the spinner to...

Slowing down the updates

September 28, 2018 eric

I continue to work on upgrades in the RV. However, things are slowing down as we are traveling less and getting more used to a more or less stationary lifestyle for the time being. There are things to work on, projects to do, things to put in place, but as is so often the case, finances seem to be the...

Organizing the Electronics Cabinet

September 6, 2018September 6, 2018 eric

Up above our TV, we have the electronics cabinet. It is filled with, obviously, electronics. As we've added new devices, things have just kind of been shoved in there randomly. Wires are all over the place. Raspberry Pis are hanging out haphazardly. It is a mess to say the least. A few weeks ago, I received a Nintendo Wii from...

Winegard ConnecT 2.0 Review and Installation

September 3, 2018September 4, 2018 eric

I received a Winegard ConnecT 2.0 4G2 (WF2-435) 4G LTE and Wi-Fi Extender for RVs for review. This device is simple to install, easy to setup, and works reliably as much as we've used it. For an in depth description of our internet setup, please read Mobile Internet Setup. When I picked up the box for the ConnecT 2.0, I...

Projects in the works

August 19, 2018 eric

We've been at our current campground for just over two weeks now. I've been working those two weeks as well, doing twenty hours a week in exchange for a place to stay. This means we no longer have to worry about traveling, which means we no longer have to worry about things breaking at least as far as the engine...
