Another Google Maps adventure!! Pretty funny reading.
Pat & Pete replied to Vladimir's topic in General RV Information
Sorry to say , but , 'the dumbing of America' is / has been a success . -
Some sites are simply not programmed to host images . ( Small houses )

Think in terms of space . You want to live in a 800 square foot house , but , you have 1600 square feet of 'stuff' . You can't or don't want to afford a big house for all the junk , I mean stuff . Hmm , you low rent a storage space for the stuff you really don't use/need very often . Ha . You're a genius . You saved a lot of money and can now afford to pay the next rent / mortgage payment and maybe even keep the lights on in your cozy little home .

I have been missing the Michigan summers lately . We recently bought a house in western Arkansas and the temps have been more than I really care for .

That must be a very special place . We were 4 miles from the Mississippi gulf coast during that ice storm and I can say , first hand , there was plenty of ice and idiots on the roads and ditches . We spent 4 winters at that camp and every one had cold spells . Granted , nothing like the west Michigan winters we were use to , but ...

Hmm , there was enough ice to close down 10 and make just about every other road a death threat about 7 years ago . But , usually it's pretty decent . Oh , what about a couple years back when the whole country was in a deep freeze ? Alabama didn't get anything cold out of that ? Just curious , we were in mid-east Texas and had snow and ice .

What type campground would you prefer?
Pat & Pete replied to Rotorhead's topic in General RV Information
I recall being one of those toddlers . I guess my mom got tired of having to find me somewhere other than where she thought she left me . Namely , at the neighbors house or somewhere down the street . She quickly figured out that fastening the rope to my chest area was futile . And , I couldn't untie it when she fastened it at my back , dang it . LOL Hmm ., maybe the wandering soul started early in me . -
Not an HDT , but , just to say that we do the same in our Monaco motor home windshield . Much better at blocking light and adding an insulation layer .

That dump water looks way too clean to even be a grey tank dump . I saw nothing but water ... no floaters or any sign of paper . Seems to me they put some water in the grey tank and filmed dumping that . I'd be letting them know that they will be able to read a current negative review on any or all of the following : Where can I write a review about a company? Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) Facebook Page reviews. Angi (formerly Angie's List) Better Business Bureau. ConsumerAffairs.

That^ . And , don't park under trees . Then all that's needed is a wash , once in a while to clear the dust .

While sitting around some , no doubt . Don't forget the ice cream . LOL

We had a Norcold 1200 series 4 door . It was great until the control boards started missing steps and finally just ran in one mode only . Tried new boards , which worked for a few years . Then even new boards wouldn't work , so ... Not being particularly interested in spending 10 times the cost of a residential fridge for a direct replacement , we found a unit that fit and has the same capacity as the OEM . The only real disadvantage of going residential is it runs on AC only . But , being better insulated , it holds cold longer and ice cream actually gets hard in any part of the freezer .

Get off my lawn . LOL -
Useful map of climate and weather dangers. Useful for travelers?
Pat & Pete replied to RV_'s topic in General RV Information
I guess it might be worth a quick look . Being full time , weather is the first thing I look at in the morning and generally check through the day if conditions are 'unclear' . Fires are pretty obvious and in the news , usually . I use https://www.windy.com almost exclusively . Almost everything is right there . -
Finally . What an adventure .

I'd simply measure what you have and do a bit of research before ordering . -
High Pointe convection oven won't heat
Pat & Pete replied to Higginbothamtravels's topic in Technical Tips and Tricks
Check that the unit is getting enough electricity . We had a similar thing happen . It was the wall plug . The lower receptacle somehow was not letting full current through , but , the upper one was up to snuff . Likely poor connections inside .
