You can see how badly separated the front fiberglass cap is separated from the frame.

Front Cap Separation Repair on Bertie Bea

May 12, 2024 / Stan.Cromlish / 0 Comments

When I brought Bertie Bea home in March 2023, I noticed the fascia covering the seam between her front cap and the rest of the coach was starting to come loose. Though it didn’t deter me from buying her, with 10,301 miles of cherished memories across the United States, I grew concerned as I noticed the separation worsening.

In December, I paid $1,100 to have Blue Compass RV in Montgomery, Alabama, repair it. Unfortunately, their fix felt more like a temporary solution. Despite their efforts, the separation persisted, worsening after a trip to Tucson for the FMCA Fiesta Del Sol International Convention.

Contacting Tiffin Service revealed it was a known issue. To tackle it, they advised removing the fascia and adding screws to secure the fiberglass front cap to the steel frame. Skeptical, I sought advice on the Tiffin Motorhomes Technical Forum on Facebook. Many owners had faced similar issues and recommended the same fix, with some even sharing a helpful YouTube tutorial.

Here’s how to go about it:

Tools and Parts Needed:

#6 x 1″ Stainless Steel Pan-Head Metal Screws
Loctite Permanent Thread Locker
7/64″ Metal Drill Bit
Double-Sided Alien Tape or Double-Sided Butyl Tape for reattaching the fascia
Tube of Clear Silicone Caulk for post-repair sealing
Drill for making holes and attaching screws
Razor Knife for removing the fascia

Repair Steps:

Remove the Fascia: Use a razor knife to gently strip the fascia from the seam. Examine the exposed area; you’ll likely notice wear and tear from being inadequately attached.
Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes for the screws. Apply a small amount of Loctite to prevent them from loosening during travel.
Cover Unused Holes: If you encounter holes that lead to nowhere, seal them with Alien Tape.
Secure the Front Cap: Install the screws to firmly secure the front cap to the frame. Ensure the structure feels stable and the seam appears smooth.
Reattach the Fascia: Use three well-spaced strips of Alien Tape to secure the fascia back onto the coach. In my video, I used a strip of Gorilla double-sided tape before a friend of mine brought me a roll of Alien Tape, which is much preferred for this type of application.
Seal the Repair: Apply a bead of clear silicone caulk along both sides of the fascia to seal the repair completely.

Use a razor knife to break the seal of the fascia and remove it for reattachment post-repair

The screws have been added and the repair is ready to have the fascia reattached.

The fascia has been reattached and you can see that the gap that was there previously has been removed.

With these steps, your repair should endure the lifetime of the coach, ensuring Bertie Bea remains road-ready for many more adventures.

Wandering Gypsy RV Life – Episode 1

Ah, the glamorous world of RV life! When I first dipped my toes into the Wandering Gypsy RV Life back in 2020, I was as clueless as a fish in a desert. My buddy Bessie and I hit the road with high hopes and low knowledge, especially when it came to keeping those tanks clean and happy.

Now, I knew enough to toss some tank maintenance chemicals in there – you know, the stuff you grab from the RV aisle at Walmart or Camping World? But little did I know, I was basically treating my holding tank like it was auditioning for a role in “Swamp People.” Yup, those chemicals were breaking down solids faster than my plans on a rainy day, leaving behind a sludgy mess that wouldn’t budge.

Fast forward to March 2023, and I found myself at my second FMCA Rally in Perry, Georgia, rubbing shoulders with the RV elite. That’s where I met Jack from Kleen Tank, the hero I never knew I needed. When he got his hands on Bertha’s tanks, I spilled the beans about my perpetual sensor woes. Turns out, Bertha was carrying around more sludge than a teenager’s Instagram feed – no wonder those sensors were on the fritz!

But fear not, dear readers, for Jack came bearing wisdom and a recipe for tank success. Forget those harsh chemicals – we’re talking Pine-Sol and Calgon Bath Beads, the dynamic duo of tank maintenance. Mix ’em up just right, pour ’em in, and voila! You’ve got yourself a recipe for clean tanks and happy travels.

So now, whenever Bertie Bea’s feeling a bit weighed down, I whip up a batch of that magic solution and give those tanks a good soak. Add in a splash of water for good measure, and we’re back in business, baby!

Kleen Tank Recipe
Mix eight ounces of Calgon Ageless Bath Pearls and 40 ounces of PINE-SOL® in a one-gallon jug. Fill the jug with water. Shake gently and allow any foam to settle down. Use four to eight ounces (as directed) in each tank, every time you have emptied them.

Remember, folks, a little maintenance goes a long way in the RV world. Keep those tanks happy, and you’ll avoid more disasters than a “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” marathon. Trust me, your nose will thank you later!

And hey, if you see me on the road, be sure to wave – I’ll be the one with the sparkling clean tanks and the big ol’ grin on my face! ?✨

Summer RV Tour 2023: The Journey Along Brother Highway Continues

February 5, 2024 / Stan.Cromlish / 0 Comments

The week of the Fourth of July marked a turning point in the journey as we set our sights on the return trip. Heading towards Idaho, I embarked on a two-week visit with Jeff Roper in Idaho Falls. The Idaho Falls Luxury RV Park offered a haven, and together, Jeff and I embarked on a fishing expedition on the Henry’s Fork.

The guide’s expertise put us on the fish, but nature had a surprise. An audacious osprey made my fishing experience more enjoyable by snatching one of my prized catches right off my line. The unexpected encounter added a touch of wild beauty to the Idaho waters.

Hanging with Richard and Charlene

Leaving Idaho Falls, the road unfolded its chapters with a promise of more stories. In Island Park, Idaho, I had the pleasure of meeting Charlene and Richard Guidry and their 2019 Tiffin Allegro Red 37PA. A week exploring Yellowstone National Park set the stage for a journey that would unfold into the heart of Wyoming.

A day on Yellowstone Lake with our Yellowstone National Park Guide, Lindsey, became a highlight as Charlene, Richard, and I fished for lake trout and cutthroat trout. Trolling spoons deep in the crystal-clear waters brought forth a bountiful catch, creating memories that shimmered like the ripples on the lake.

Cody, Wyoming, became a familiar stop once again, where Charlene, Richard, and I, along with our motorhomes, hung out for a week and enjoyed one more day of fishing on Lake Yellowstone.

FMCA Rally in Gillette, Wyoming

Our motorhome convoy continued to Gillette, Wyoming, for the grand finale of Summer RV Tour 2023 – the 107th International Convention of the Family Motorcoach Association. Taking RV Basics classes, we discovered more tips and tricks for maintaining our cherished motorhomes. The week became a blend of camaraderie, shared experiences, and the inevitable required upkeep of our beloved RVs. As always, new friends quickly became old friends, and old friends became family. All too quickly, one of the best weeks of the year came to an end.

The Journey Home to Kick Back

Thursday, August 31, marked a bittersweet moment as I bid Richard and Charlene adieu at the Rapid City / Black Hills KOA Holiday. The open road stretched before me, a 1,556-mile journey to the final destination – the Kick Back Ranch & Event Center in Ramer, AL. The miles ahead promised reflections, lessons learned, and the echo of laughter shared with newfound friends.

The journey reached its poignant final destination on Sunday, September 3, when Bertie Bea and I arrived at Kick Back Ranch & Event Center. Summer RV Tour 2023 and Brother Highway took me through 13 states and countless adventures with friends who’ve become family. Once again, the experience was worth the effort. Remember to follow your dreams and live life to the fullest.

Summer RV Tour 2023: Brother Highway Beckoned

February 4, 2024 / Stan.Cromlish / 0 Comments

Bertha, a 2015 Forest River Sunseeker 3200, provided me with two years of enjoyment on the road, and I sold her to a new owner to continue her journey. On March 31, 2023, I welcomed the newest member of the family – a 2016 Tiffin Allegro Open Road 34PA. A majestic road companion, that I have affectionately christened Bertie Bea. Bertie became my home away from home for my next journey along Brother Highway. We wove our way through the heart of America, seeing sights and visiting friends. When I first turned the key, Brother Highway beckoned, and Bertie Bea answered with a purr that promised countless adventures.

The Journey Begins

The journey unfolded from April 22, 2023, to September 3, 2023, carrying us through a tapestry of states – Missouri, Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, and Washington. Each state offered a unique chapter, a patchwork quilt of experiences stitched together by the hum of the road beneath us.

Nebraska saw me visit Tim Brewster and hang out for a week in Kearney, Nebraska. It was off the Cheyenne, where I visited the rodeo grounds of the Daddy of’em All, Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo. The week was spent preparing for the first epic stop of the trip, Alcova, Wyoming, and the chance to fish the epic Grey Reef section of the North Platte River.

The sun danced on the waters of the North Platte River, and the promise of a day filled with fishing adventures beckoned. Brian and Rowdy, my trusty companions, and I shared laughter, stories, and the thrill of reeling in catches against the scenic backdrop of the river. To learn how I earned my new handle, Mr. Botangles, check out my post about our epic day on the waters of the Grey Reef Section of the North Platte River – An Unforgettable Day on the North Platte with Rowdy and Brian.

Next on the map was Kaycee, Wyoming, the hometown of the legendary rodeo cowboy and musician, Chris Ledoux. Chris’ son Ned continues delivering the music that drives my passion for life on the road and living the western lifestyle. A visit with Larry Sandvick added a touch of rodeo flair to Bertie Bea. The bareback rigging coozies I picked up became cherished souvenirs, serving as a nod to the spirit of the West.

Cody, Wyoming, became a rendezvous with a couple of old friends, Sid McFarland, a rodeo clown from Prattville, Alabama, and Timber Tuckness from Meeteetse, Wyoming. Sid’s fiftieth year in the rodeo business infused the legendary Cody Night Rodeo with nostalgia, where he performed from Memorial Day through August 9. Sid’s professional antics kept the crowd in stitches, and his fire truck act left the crowd wanting more each night. For two weeks, we shared laughs, applause, and stories beneath the starlit Wyoming sky until the call of the road beckoned me to continue my journey along Brother Highway.

Melrose, Montana, and the Sportsman Lodging and RV Park introduced a new challenge – my first back-in parking spot for the 36-foot Bertie Bea. The skies threatened rain, adding an extra layer of complexity. A decision to leave early and camp at Indian Creek Campground in Deer Lodge, Montana, spared us the potential mud wrestling match.

Loon Lake, Washington, presented a humorous twist in our journey. The camping spot at Teri and Paul’s lake house was a challenge – a narrow driveway, a tight parking space, and the need for precise maneuvering. Describing the process of backing a colossal RV into a postage stamp spot became a tale of comedic trials, turning what could have been a stressful situation into an adventure punctuated by laughter.

Spending two weeks with Teri, Paul, and their son Grayson on Deer Lake brought a deeper connection. Fishing off their dock, exploring the scenic wonders of Central Washington, and sharing stories added warmth to the journey. The humor and camaraderie infused the journey with memories that would linger long after the road ahead unfolded.

Brother Highway called, and after spending the week of the fourth of July in Washington, I started the journey east towards Idaho.

The road beckoned me in the Summer of 2023 and the trip was one of not only seeing what was around the next bend but fishing pristine waters along with hanging with old friends and new. From Belmont, North Carolina to Loon Lake, Washington, Bertie Bea and Brother Highway kept me excited about what life will hold over the next hill or around the next curve. Follow your dreams and look for the next installment of Life on the Road during the Summer 2023 RV Tour.

Protect Yourself From RV Water Issues: A Layered Defense That Works

January 27, 2024 / Stan.Cromlish / 0 Comments

Water is one of the few things in RV life that can quietly ruin your day, your week, or your entire season. RV water issues don’t always show themselves dramatically. More often, it whispers. A drip. A damp corner. A smell you can’t quite place.

Over the past five years, I’ve learned a lot about protecting my rigs, Bessie, Bertha, and now Bertie Bea, from water and temperature-related damage. Some lessons were preventative. Others were learned the hard way.

Bertha eventually received a new roof from Flex Armor Greensboro. Bertie Bea, on the other hand, has benefited from something just as important: early detection and layered monitoring.

Full-Time RV Living Demands Early Warning Systems

When you live in your RV full-time, water systems are always in use. Showers, sinks, toilets, city water connections, and hidden plumbing behind walls all see daily stress.

The problem isn’t usually a catastrophic failure. It’s the small, persistent leaks that go unnoticed until damage is already done.

That’s why I’ve stopped relying on a single solution and instead built a layered water leak detection strategy to detect RV water issues.

Why I Now Use Two Different Water Leak Detection Systems to Protect Against RV Water Issues

On Bertie Bea, I’m currently running two complementary leak detection systems, each with its own strengths.

Wireless Coverage Where It Makes Sense

I use water leak sensors from AiDot in several strategic locations throughout the coach, including:

Under-sink water lines
Interior low points where water would collect first

These sensors are easy to place, quick to deploy, and extremely loud when triggered. When one alarms, there’s no mistaking it. Push notifications and text alerts tell me exactly which sensor detected moisture, and the mobile app provides real-time visibility into what’s happening inside the rig.

Wired Detection Where Precision Matters Most

AiDot Water Leak Detector protects against RV Water Issues — AIDot Water Leak Detector under the Kitchen Sink

In addition to the AiDot sensors, I’ve installed Moen wired water leak detectors at locations where precise placement is critical to preventing RV water issues.

The most prominent example is under the shower.

The Moen sensor’s wired probe allows me to position the detection point exactly where water would first appear, not just where a puck-style sensor can sit. That distinction matters in tight RV spaces where plumbing, framing, and drain pans all compete for room.

This setup has already proven its value.

A Real-World Example From the Wet Bay

One of the Moen sensors is installed in the wet bay. It’s been consistently detecting a small amount of moisture in an area that, by design, is technically “wet.”

Here’s the key takeaway:

Even in areas designed to handle moisture, unexpected water still matters.

The sensor has confirmed that:

There is a slow, persistent leak
It’s happening consistently
It’s not yet migrating beyond the wet bay

While I haven’t located the exact source yet, knowing when and where water is appearing allows me to monitor the situation closely and prevents the leak from becoming a surprise elsewhere.

That awareness alone is worth the investment.

Why Early Detection Beats Perfect Repairs

Every RV owner wants permanent fixes. But the reality is that some issues take time to track down, especially slow leaks that only appear under certain conditions.

Water leak sensors give you:

Time to diagnose instead of react
Proof that a problem exists, even when it’s intermittent
Confidence that a small issue hasn’t become a big one

Catching moisture early often means the difference between:

Drying an area vs. rebuilding it
Replacing a seal vs. replacing flooring
Enjoying your trip vs. canceling it

Final Thoughts

Protecting an RV from water damage isn’t about one perfect product. It’s about coverage, redundancy, and awareness.

By combining wireless sensors for broad monitoring with wired sensors for precise detection, I’ve built a system that works with how RVs actually live and move.

Water issues will always be part of RV life. The goal isn’t perfection. It’s knowing what’s happening before damage has a chance to take hold.

Stay ahead of the leaks, and you stay on the road.

Cold Weather RV Preparation

January 16, 2024 / Stan.Cromlish / 0 Comments

When traveling in the RV in the winter, you must pay attention to the weather because cold weather can affect every system, especially the water system. Through trial and error, including freezing my water pressure regulator, I have been able to mitigate most cold weather issues in Bertie Bea.

Heat

Heat in the RV can either be provided by a propane or diesel fuel furnace or an electric heat pump. In Bertie Bea, there is an electric heat pump that works well when outside temperatures are over 40 degrees Fahrenheit and a propane furnace. Built into the heat pump is a feature that allows propane heat assist, which will automatically switch to the propane furnace. Eighty-five percent of the time, I leave the propane assist feature turned off and supplement it with electric space heaters. But, with the temperatures of the next few days being forecast in the high teens and low twenties, I will opt for the propane assist feature in order to keep the interior of the RV at least sixty-five degrees. I’ll supplement it with the space heater.

Water

With temperatures being below freezing for several days, there are several options when it comes to handling water. I’ve figured out the best method is to just fill up the freshwater tank. Bertie Bea can hold 70 gallons of water on-board which is plenty for three or four days unless running the washing machine. The evening before overnight temps are going to drop below freezing; I will unhook the RV from the external water source, turn on the water pump, and hunker down. The furnace and heating pad will keep the onboard water from freezing.

Inclement Weather

If the weather is calling for freezing rain, sleet, or snow for a period of time, you will need to make sure that the slide toppers are free from snow and ice before retracting them to travel. If you have steps coming into your RV, make sure they’re free of ice and use your handrail entering and exiting so that you limit the chances of slipping and falling.

With a little preparation, your RV will provide you with a warm and snug home on the road even when the weather turns cold. Bertie Bea is wonderfully appointed and prepared for most anything Mother Nature can throw at her.

RV Tales: Embracing Nature’s Symphony in Yellowstone

November 23, 2023 / Stan.Cromlish / 0 Comments

As an avid nature enthusiast and a firm believer in the therapeutic power of the open road, embarking on an RV adventure through Yellowstone National Park has been a dream come true. The journey began with the selection of two remarkable campgrounds, Bridge Bay and Madison, both promising a perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility to the wonders of America’s first national park.

Stan, Rowdy, and Mike – 2021 Trip to Yellowstone National Park

Bridge Bay Campground: Lakeside Bliss

Our RV found its temporary home at Bridge Bay Campground, perched along the serene shores of Yellowstone Lake. The view from our campsite was nothing short of mesmerizing, with the sparkling waters of the lake stretching out before us along with the elk that routinely traverse the campground. The RV, with all its amenities, became our comfortable oasis amidst the wilderness.

Old Faithful – Yellowstone National Park

Guided by the call of exploration, we hopped into my trusty Chevrolet Equinox, ready to unravel the mysteries of Yellowstone. The first stop on our adventure was the legendary Old Faithful. The Equinox effortlessly navigated the winding roads, delivering us to the iconic geyser just in time for its majestic eruption. Watching Old Faithful shoot a column of steam and water into the sky was a humbling reminder of the untamed forces at play beneath the Earth’s surface.

Madison Campground: Forest Retreat

2021 with Bertha in the Madison Campground

Transitioning to Madison Campground felt like entering a secluded forest retreat. Our RV nestled amidst towering lodgepole pines, creating an intimate connection with nature. After a day filled with exploration, the RV became a haven of comfort, providing a perfect setting for sharing stories and savoring the moments.

Driving my Equinox from Madison, Mike, Rowdy, and I set our sights on the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. The car allowed us to effortlessly traverse the park, reaching the canyon’s edge to witness the majestic Yellowstone River carving its way through the rugged landscape. The Equinox became the ticket to the diverse landscapes and wildlife that make Yellowstone an ever-unfolding masterpiece.

Paint Pots and Beyond: RV Adventures Unveiled

The Paint Pots and Grand Prismatic Springs of Yellowstone National Park

Returning to the RV, we eagerly set out for the Paint Pots, a geothermal wonderland that painted the ground with vibrant hues. The RV served as our command center, allowing us to plan our exploration and immerse ourselves in the surreal landscapes that surrounded us.

To cap off our Yellowstone odyssey, we booked a guided fishing trip for cutthroats and lake trout in the pristine waters of Lake Yellowstone. Loading up the Equinox with fishing gear, we set out for a day of angling against the backdrop of the lake’s tranquil beauty—a perfect finale to our RV adventure.

In the end, camping in an RV at Bridge Bay and Madison Campgrounds was not just a vacation; it was a personal journey of discovery and connection with the wild. Yellowstone, with its geysers, canyons, paint pots, and serene lakes, became a canvas where memories were painted with each mile traveled and every site explored. As the RV rolled out of the park, the echoes of nature’s symphony lingered, leaving us with a profound appreciation for the beauty that our great outdoors hold.
