Having done my own share of "smack up side the head stupid stiff", I developed my own reminders. At Lowes I purchased a package of Velcro brand One Wrap Ties(registered trademark). I used a permanent marker to name the thing that I want to be reminded of prior to moving, such as water hose, electric cable, leveling to travel height (or in your case dropped), and etc. I put these on a steering wheel spoke and remove them when I know I've just taken care of that item. This has reduced my idiocy by half, not that sane people could tell.

On a side note, at the rate freed buoys are drifting by here just south of Memphis I'm guessing New Orleans will have far more than they could ever use.
