It's time to switch over to the new bus.
We have the next two weekends allocated to get this done.
The main work days will be Saturday 5/7 and Saturday 5/14.
Sunday 5/8 will be for light duty work for those who need an excuse to get out of the house.
Sunday 5/15 will be punch list items.

We have a laundry list of thing to do; rest assured there is plenty to do.

The work will take place at Chris Suich's place.

Saturday Hours: 9am - until
Sunday Hours: 11am - 3pm

What to bring:
Some of your own tools: mechanics tools, drills, bits, electrical supplies, brake bleeding, etc
I have my tools but not enough to supply many workers. :oops:

The club will provide some drinks and lunch. I say w/o prior approval.

We don't need an army of people, but I figure over the next 2 weekends we'll have a dozen or so for each workday.

I'll be there late Saturday, probably around noon. Have to take the wife to breakfast on Sat morning for part of mom's day. As for lunch, yes, the club will provide lunch of some type. Great pizza place near by.

No mention of the awning or generator. Might want to go back and update that part. I'm sure it was just an oversight.

Ironically the old bus is dry as can be be inside after last night's rain.
The new bus... new items on the to do list.

There is a seem in the roof near the sides of the bus. Water been leaking in there a while. It's in the area where we installed the power strips on the driver's side.
