Meanders With Mammoth -- Movement and Return

                                            The borders between domesticated and wild are often fluid.

Instead of just sitting beside the house and sucking money out of our bank account, Mammoth got to go traveling today. She went to the gas station and the LP gas store. She did fine, even without me there to supervise her...until she returned home.

There she proceeded to bash into the corner of the house roof and demolish a chunk of fascia. The roof struck back, breaking a tail light and gouging a huge scrape in the paint near the top of her roof. Comparing the damage on the two contenders, I'd say the Mammoth won the battle.








One note to all you wannabe RV owners out there--when you park it with the slides extended, check that the rubber seals have all flipped out. Last night it poured down rain--quarts, gallons and buckets of rain--and this morning we found the only leakage was along one slide where the seal was rolled inward.  The leak on the driver's side roof appears to be fixed--not a drop of water over there.  But over by the slide, not so lucky. There's a space heater drying the carpet right now.
