[Rhodes22-list] Winterization advice

[Ron Singerman]

Art,

You are right.  I am planning on being in FL the beginning of Sep. Right now 
I am figuring out the logistics of getting both my 5th wheel and the R-22 
down there (with a stop in Edenton). Linda is scheduled for surgery this 
Thurs and arrival in FL will be based on her recovery period. Best case 
scenario we will leave the RV and the boat in FL for the winter.  My 
question about the winterization is just covering all my bases in case we 
are unable to make the trip. If there is anyone out there in R-22 land who 
would like to accompany us ( towing a Rhodes while I tow the 5th wheel) down 
to St Pete in Sep ( I'll pay expenses) let me know.

Fair winds,

>>ron<<
