After finding my window broken one morning parked in the carport, I set to work replacing it. I made some mistakes and I'll show you what I did wrong so you don't make the same mistakes. Also don't miss my full broken window removal video to get tips on removal. I ordered my back window from HQ Campervan. The cost was $470 (including shipping and install kit). The quality is excellent and the c...

What kind of rock was that flat one?
You make me hungry for steak!
I don't know if it's the location or the hibachi, but that was a really good steak.
I wonder if the window is part of a recall?
Wow! I wonder what happened to the window!
I don't really don't know what happened to the window. I just came out one morning and it was broken. I would have been more upset if I hadn't wanted to replace the window from the first day.
Michele did a great job installing this window. I like the fact that she tells you the mistakes she made so you can avoid them if you are doing this project yourself. I would also recommend allowing additional time for this project if you are doing it for the first time.
Thanks. Having a good assistant is vital. Thanks for being there for me.
The windows can be removed using a wire saw and some handles and a helper. I have removed two and put one back on so I could sell my 2015.
Thanks for letting me know.
Steve needs to go there! 😊 Looks like you had fun there!
You know we all secretly think Steve is secretly Superman.
@@michele2017promastertravel 😆 Either Superman or Batman. I'm not sure which!
I loved this place. It’s a clash of Eastern and Western Cultures and oh so beautiful. A must see if you are in the area. 😊
And so few people visit this gem.
I live in downtown Houghton. Thanks for sharing parts of our beautiful community!!
What an amazing place to live. the UP has my heart.
For more Illinois gems (and their history), check out the new book, 100 Things To Do in Illinois Before You Die, nationwide line, no 1 travel series 🎉🎉 - I fell in love with Allerton while writing/researching the book!
Thanks that's a good tip. I love travel books.
Thank you so much! Very informative.
Your welcome.
I've never been here. Thank you for showing us this great park. I need to get there. "Weldon park" or Weldon Springs State Park? Be sure to stop by the schoolhouse if you come.
This Garden is stunning and a must see if you are in the area. 😊
Really weird
I just adore all the history of the Man of Steel. I grew up watching The Adventures of Superman on tv, and seeing Clark Kent’s suit, tie and hat gave me waves of nostalgia. This store/museum is a must see for all Superman fans and the price is very reasonable.
It was a great stop.
Be sure to visit your Isle Royaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaale!
That's on my bucket list.
Torch Lake is a EPA superfund site due to the mining activities of the past.
Spectacular views! Don’t miss this view of Hot Springs if you are in the area. It’s a must see.
It was really amazing
I just love early American Historical sites. I had no idea that this place even existed. Cool video Michele!
Thanks neither did I until I found it in Google Maps.
Nice to see a screen door on a van. Mosquitos are just terrible this year!
Thanks
Good job Michelle!😊
Thank you Michele for a very informative review of this State Park Campground.
thanks
You made it look easy. Good job.
Thanks
The screens worked great when camping in a heavily infested area. Good job Michele.
they sure do.
Nice look at the campgrounds with good information, especially which campsite is the best one.
It was a really nice campground. So glad we made this stop.
thanks, good information
thank you
I have screens too and i like them. I like your idea of the clear shower curtain.
Thanks.
Ouch! That's a bummer! We've seen that happen with Ford Transit rear windows as well - on their own. Pretty crazy!
I was so surprised it didn't really click the window was broken for several seconds. weird, someone told me their PM did this a few years ago.
Nice video of the install. I like seeing women do this kind of work. It’s inspiring!
thanks
I understand your guy's frustration driving over in Houghton LOL. Over by the bridge and all the roads/turnabouts/one ways had me thrown off trying to get around. But so worth it! Thanks for sharing
Yeah, it's an adventure even the roads... makes me love it all the more.
What a beautiful place to visit. ❤❤
It was pretty awesome. Thanks for the footage you have in this video.
Your videos are very nice. But your TH-cam channel and videos are not SEO optimized. If you optimize your channel and videos with SEO, your channel will grow and video views, subscribers will increase. Because you deserve more. Best of luck!
thanks for your comment.
Can I help you to customize your TH-cam Channel with SEO. Because I'm a professional.
@@MS_Sabir let me think about it. thanks for the offer.
Nice finds.
Thanks. It's always so fun to hunt. You never know just what you'll bring home.
It’s a long steep walk to the top, but it was a lot of fun hunting crystals.
Thanks HAARP
Beautiful colors in the Aurora Borealis.
thanks,
Interesting! Those are some beautiful buildings. It's a shame that most of them no longer have baths. Were you not allowed to film inside?
Two currently run as public bath houses. One caters to high end experience. You could film in the bathhouses but not in the public bath areas. It was a nice day with free parking, free hot water everywhere, and we splurged on a mineral bath. Great experience.
Nice video of a once in a lifetime eclipse!
Many thanks!
The amazing architecture of this town is worth the visit. And the baths themselves are so soothing and warm.
I really enjoyed my time in Hot Springs
You probably should be running a GFI receptacle in the van directly wired into the outside receptacle, then you’ll have protected power.
Thanks. The power strip does have a fuse, that has popped on a couple of occasions. Good idea.
Watch for copperheads and ticks. Tick fever is bad there.
Thanks for the head's up. We were there in early March before the snakes become active. We did see one snake sunning itself, it was a garter snake. Made us think about all those holes we put our feet in to walk. Definitely wear boots and watch where you are walking.
The location of the campsite is so beautiful, but don’t go past the campground on that road. It’s scary bad.
I heard that...
thank you for the video. :)
Your Welcome. It was a great park.
Hello my friend and thank u for the video, i just have a plans to buy the same aircondition for my pick up camper and work it with inverter which is takes electricity from the alternator, but i must be sure if i can work the aircondition while driving the car, anything u know can help me please 🙏
I would not run a portable air conditioner off your car battery, it's an energy hog and will draw too much current and drain orr even ruin your car battery. You definitely want to run your ac from a 'house' battery (it's what you call an auxiliary battery that runs other things and is not hooked to your car engine)- you can charge a 'house' battery from your car or solar and run then that energy through an inverter for your ac- that's how my setup works. If there is a way to run it like you suggest I would not know anything about it.
Crater of Diamonds State Park had a nice campground and the walk to the search area was about 1/2 mile from our campsite through the woods along a gravel trail. Nothing in this area is level, so be prepared with sturdy boots or shoes to conquer the hilly terrain. The search area is filled with tiny shiny bits of mica that sparkle in the sun, making finding a diamond more challenging. Bring along your own digging bucket and plenty of water to drink. The park office had small plastic hand shovels for a very modest price ($3), which work well for average folks out searching for diamonds.
Thanks for sharing 😇
Thanks for watching!
Hi Michael, thanks for the video. Did u used 13 mm hose? Or 15mm? Best regards
The sizes here are 1/2 inch. that's what I used. It's what fits on the USA (states) fixtures. Both the foot pump and the faucet nuts take 1/2 inch. If you heat the hose in hot water it will be quite flexible and conform to different sizes if close to that size.
@@michele2017promastertravel thank you so much. Yes same size here. Will follow you step 👍
@@oscarcortesrodriguez4445 good luck.
We want to do this sometime. It looks like fun and you never know what you'll find. Lynn and Danny
There are some nice agates on the field and you can find other gemstones but sadly they are all very small.
Just what I needed, Thankyou 😀
That's awesome. Thanks for the comment.
I have watched all the videos on your TH-cam channel. Your channel has high quality videos. But your videos are not perfect or good in terms of SEO. I am an SEO expert and I want to work with your channel to improve your channel, which will increase your views and subscribers in a short time. I have been doing this successfully since 2020..
Thanks.
