2nd weekend of dewinterizing

We got the water and propane systems tested yesterday. Water heater, furnace, stove and oven all worked fine. Water didn't leak any where (yea!) and pump worked fine. We didn't make any rookie mistakes like we did last year.

The batteries for the tire pressure monitor system sensors were low so we replaced all eight. That took some time. Hopefully they will last more than 2 yrs this time. We do take the sensors off and put them in the basement over the winter.

Mysteriously the only thing that didn't work was the atomic clock with internal and external temp. monitor that we mounted on the dash. It was also stored in the basement (we put everything with batteries in the basement). The clock was OK but no internal or external temp. so will have to get a new one.

It was very nice not to have to consult the manual to see what the switches do. My demystifying the switches labels from last year were enough to get us through.
