I agree with Randy. Right now we are at Gouldings, a very nice but very expensive commercial RV park that is very close to Monument Valley. A few days ago we camped in Valley of the Gods, which was the nicest campsite I can remember. BLM land, so free. Our site was HERE, quite close to Randy's site. I will post some pictures when I get home.

I preferred Valley of the Gods, which is just down the street from Monument Valley. My profile boondocking photo was taken HERE This spot is close/on to the road, but only two cars came by in the few days I was there, there are others that are completely away from the drive area.

I am one of the few Ollie owners with those Utah license plates, but sometimes I cannot believe what jerks some of my fellow Utahns are. Five years ago a scout leader decided to destroy one of the rock formations, called hoodoos or goblins, in Goblin Valley State Park. These a-holes videotaped the event and posted it on Facebook. You can see the video , and one news report here. Apparently they were sentenced to a year of probation and a fine. We are currently camping in Southern Utah near Monument Valley, and the area is of such inspiring beauty I cannot understand why anyone would want to deface it.

I read thru the manuals after picking up Ollie, and the Dometic Refrigerator User Manual says: "Use the Airing Position Card to keep the doors ajar if the refrigerator will not be in use for an extended period of time or put in storage." I figured they supplied this Airing Position Card, but no, it is an accessory. I found one on eBay for $6. More expensive than an old sponge or a rag, but it works well. When we start our trip, I toss the card onto one of the fridge door shelves, and I can easily find it at the end of the trip. I did a google search today for "dometic 3312986403 rv refrigerator door airing position card" and eBay prices seemed to be $17. No CamelCamelCamel for eBay. Today Dyer RV Parts has it for $11.99.

When camping with water connection and leaving camper unattended for the day, should you close hydrant and release pressure inside the camper?

My head is still light from the visit. I had planned on putting down the deposit, but hadn't planned on the start sum. Fortunately for the invention of online banking, I was able to consolidate from several accounts and come up with the piece of paper for the down-payment.
