Answers to LINKS Scavenger Hunt!
Yahoo Message Number: 89206
Okay, are you ready for the answers to the LINKS Scavenger Hunt? (Lisa, wake up from your nap and check your answers!)

I know SO MANY of you participated, but please, post just your time and score so we can keep up with who gets the *gold star* and wears LD crown for the day.

If you didn't quite have time to get around to it, please just look at the Link Trails so you can get familiar with the folders.  It is so easy (I hope) to find the info you seek.

Remember this distinction:  LINKS store website addresses and the FILES store documents, like Word docs, .pdf pages, etc.
 I hope it all makes sense.  And I hope I have these answers correct!

Where are Bumper's pictures of the solar panels on his roof?  How many are there? (Give the LINK trail and # of panels)

Answer: 5 panels   Links > Improvements > 1 - Owner Improvements

http://autos.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/lifewithalazydazerv/photos/vie w/5743?b=14>

In an old message, Bumper described how altered Yonder's wardrobe to secure the table.  What is that message number?

Answer:  #85758

Links > Improvements > Interior rig improvements > Wardrobe

Extra Credit: What is the name AND website for "that thingy that uses a brick to hold down the end of the sewer hose during dumping so it doesn't fly up and spray everywhere?"

Answer:  RV Saddle
http://www.rvsaddle.com/>
 Links > Repairs & Maintenance > Waste Tanks & Dumping > Tank dumping
 This question was extra credit because all the Waste Tank stuff is in the Repairs folder, not the Improvements folder (although you can get there through Improvements though with a few clicks.)  Why isn't there a Waste Tank improvements folder?  Because I don't see enough Improvements in that category to warrant duplicate folders.

It's all a judgment call and if you see something that looks crazy, let me know.  Sometimes I wonder why I did things the way I did too.
