Dark Squirrel 0 Posted September 5, 2009 Todays accomplishment consisted mostly to getting the censored.gif trailer lights working. Well mostly working. :whistle: I don't have hazard lights. But I think that if I'm having a "hazard" then I probably shouldn't be towing a trailer. :rofl: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd HATE to topple over in some frigid water! :scared: (I'd hate to even have to step in some frigid water to get into my Kayak!) :unsure: It's still hot as hell way down here, so I forget how cold it is up where Super Squirrels roam.

Dark Squirrel 0 Posted September 29, 2009 Last night I bought a digital converter box for my tv. Tonight I'm buying a 12v inverter and a 6" memory foam mattress to replace the inflatable mattress I have now. It just pains me to take a brand new $180 mattress and hack 6 inches off one side so it fits. :scared: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dark Squirrel 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Woohoo!! :bounce: The gods smile upon me! :angel: I went to buy my mattress and instead of ringing me up for $180 they rang it up as $100. That paid for my 12 inverter to power my digital tv converter box so I can watch tv. With the money I saved I'm gunna go back and get the 750w inverter for $20 more. :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
