Battery hookup

I had a neighbor remove my battery for the winter.  I had asked him to take a picture of the setup before removing the battery, but he forgot.  Now I'm confused as I see four cables to attach to the battery.  Do I connect BOTH of the white cables to the negative post and the red AND blue cables to the positive post?

    If you have the solar port on the propane tub, you should have a red and white cable extending from that port to the inside of the tub.  The red is positive and the white is negative.  The blue cable probably holds a plastic fuse box and the cable may be spliced into a red cable - that goes to the positive terminal of the battery.  The other white cable goes on the negative terminal of the battery.  Here is a picture of mine.  Ignore the thin, red cable as it supplies the charge to an optional battery monitor.  Make sure you put the negative cable on last.
