Test post. None of my devices have been working for a week, except like button and pm. Sherry

A followup to this post: I haven't been able to post for over a week now from my Android phone or tablet, Chrome. Now, I can't post from my laptop using Chrome, either. This post is a test on a friend's borrowed Mac to see if it is my equipment, browser, or another problem. So, sorry to all the people who have asked questions lately. Most of the time pm works, but not always. Hopefully, we'll get this resolved soon. Thanks, Matt, for all your help. Sherry

Test post.

Thanks for the link and the info. I, too, think they look cool. Sherry

Welcome. We have good camping friends not far from you, though we have spent only a few weeks in beautiful Virginia. Love the Skyline, and Virginia regional parks, as well. Many miles of smiles. Sherry

I too like the new fabrics. Our fabric will be replaced this year or next. Nice to see new choices. Thanks! Sherry

This Canadian couple has been blogging their adventures towing an alto with a Tesla x, across Canada, and now in Florida.

Thanks for sharing that, John. Nice price. Still $99 at my local HD. My Lowe's store will price match HD's sale prices. Sherry

Imaginative, inventive, resourceful. Those cases of books are a bit heavy to drag around, though. Perhaps they're hollowed out decor items? Thanks, John.

I'm posting this on behalf of Hidalga. She's having problems posting from her computer. Congrats, Hidalga! Sherry Greg Gerber, editor and founder of RV Daily Report, has the Eggshells in The Outer Banks Rally Coordinator, Jeannine, as this week’s podcast guest.

Thanks John, for the link, and to both you and Buzzy for the info. I ordered our pass. Sherry I don't see any need to delete your post. Two chances for all of us to see this wonderful gift from Parks Canada.

Thanks, Dave. Simple but effective. Sherry

God speed, and best wishes to you and yours. You'll beisdrd as part of the Oliver group. All our best. Sherry and Paul

Boiling water in the trailer, on the gas ring, is not a big deal, for coffee. In cool months, it provides a minor amount of welcome heat. In the summer months, with open windows, it's an unnoticeable difference to boil water. I use a pourover cone, and we love the coffee. We almost never have electric hookups, so I'm prejudiced. Sherry

Thanks. Our home locks do give us a warning on low battery. Perhaps not the same on RV locks?

We have run our ac unit twice, that I can think of , in nine years, other than testing in the driveway. That said, I'd certainly run the necessary wiring,bfor rooftop installation, if I were to eliminate it, for resale. We never know what changes life brings

We're still mulling some ideas and options. Other than our four winter days here lately, it's just been too nice to think about leaving Florida. We may go to Alaska again in may and June. Three years in a row... But if we do, we will take another different route in the US part. Of course, several weeks in NC, our favorite. October will find us in beautiful western New York for a wedding. Might think about going north into Quebec and New Brunswick before then. We'd like to run along the north side of the St Lawrence this time... But many campgrounds close up there mid September.and the Catskills and Adirondacks can be quite rainy and cold in the fall. We'll see. Sherry

I love my induction cooktop at home. Instant response to temperature adjustments, highly controllable like a gas range, but easier to clean. It uses 220 power, though. I'm sure that's part of the limitation on the 120 portable units. Pete/bugeyedriver cooked everyone an awesome breakfast on his little portable one morning when we camped together. Biscuits in his little electric convection oven, too. It was worth the generator sound, for sure. Sherry

Yes, occasionally, the local Ace is 10 cents higher on a fitting, but often not. And three miles closer than depot or the blue box store.

Well, not often, but I have to tell you, I love my local Ace hardware. They have just a few of what seems like a zillion items. It's my go-to to spot for just a few metric stainless screws or bolts, a short length of PVC, an odd fitting I need right now... And, I don't know about your local Ace, but the guy who runs the electrical section in mine is a retired electrical engineer who had helped me on numerous occasions. So glad they're still in my neighborhood. Sherry

The small 12v swing arm we used in Australia drew our battery down very little, even on two night stays, with a single group 27 house battery, powering lights, as well. As we had no heater in the camper van, and a diesel no fan heater in the other, can't say that anything but lights and charging phones and tablet drew much else. We were warned at pickup that we would have to plug in at least every other night to maintain the battery. We found that to be false, as we camped three and four nights in a row with no power or solar in the camper van, without running the battery down to an unsafe level. We did have an analog type guage, never showing less than 12.5. The refrigerator ran intermittently, not all day. Outside temp was certainly a factor, as was how often we opened the fridge door. I was careful to check the guage several times a day. Mind, this was a hatbox size refrigerator, but still had a freezer compartment capable of making ice twice a day, and holding several frozen items. Freezer was about half the size of the domestic. Fridge a little over half the size. Sherry
