I chose this area (Western North Carolina) of the country to live in for many reasons. One of those reasons was that it had all four of the seasons - Spring - Summer - Fall - Winter. However, during the summer the high temperature rarely hits 90 and if it does, when the sun goes over the mountain it cools right back down to something more tolerable. And, in the Winter, the little town I live in has an average annual snowfall of between 6 and 7 inches total. The day before yesterday the weather forecast was for temperatures to be in the low to mid 30's (average for this time of year is low 50's) and for 1 to 2 inches of snow that would not stick to the roads. Well, now it is about 30 hours later, it is STILL snowing and there is 7 to 9 inches on the ground! Sure is pretty though. Bill

So, Paul was very busy today. Took out the old microwave that died from lack of use, years ago. Since we almost never camp with power, I want to replace it with a storage cabinet. Has anyone done this as a retrofit? Or at purchase? Looking for ideas. I'd like to keep the 110 outlet, but not necessary. We'll pull the rest of the fitting bits and threaded rod, etc from the original install of the unused microwave., and "archive" them somewhere in the garage. The space occupied by the microwave is huge compared to the storage inside the actual microwave cavity. Kind of excited to create a new dish locker. Or something.. Originally, I had hoped to replace the microwave with s mini oven, but none of the European models that fit the space have even fair reviews. So, cabinet it is. Perhaps convert to an oven in five or ten years. We'll have a spare gas connection, as we are also replacing the three way fridge with a danfoss compressor electric refrigerator. Sherry
