OK everyone here are a few pictures of the new camper!  The "Lala Palooza" named after our daughter.  I had just enough time to wash it down with woolite before the rain came in.

And of course it would just not be right if i did not start off the first full day of owning it without doing a mod.  It did not have a battery tray or batter so i dug up some old metal stock i had and the battery off the deceased pup and went to work.  Just have to get me another batter case now and wire it up tomorrow.

beautiful camper, Makes me miss our pop up. I'm absolutely sure you'll enjoy it for many years. All of our best, from Iowa. PS the woolite clean up on the canvas worked very well, for us, on our viking pup and I plan on using it for our new HTT, just to keep things crisp and clean. Love it.

Looks to be in great shape. Good luck.
We had a 99 Niagara for 8 years and loved it.
It's a nice setup.
Plenty of room, my two DD's usually brought a friend each along when camping and 2 of them had the dinette slide and 2 had the bunk end.
And we still had the couch when we got up to drink our coffee in the am while they were still sleeping.

OK. so here is the first pic i promised.  This is an adapter i made for winterizing the pup.  I took two air fittings a rubber tube and a couple of PVC fitting and made it to where i can hook up the air compressor to the city water inlet.  I drain the fresh tank and water heater then i hook up the adapter to the city inlet.  Pressurize to 22-24 psi and then open one faucet valve at a time.  I turn the pump on for about 30 seconds to make sure i have all the water off the blades.  Once i have all the lines flushed, i keep one faucet open and bump up the pressure to about 40psi.  I go back through the system opening another faucet and THEN closing the previous one.  This blows all the water out of the system.  I then fill the P traps with antifreeze and presto! I am done.
