I like to eat directly. 1 teaspoon honey everyday. The high-quality honey contains many important antioxidants. These include organic acids and phenolic compounds like flavonoids. Antioxidants have been linked to reduced risk of heart attacks, strokes and some types of cancer. They may also promote eye health.

I'm using On The Go OTG4-DBL soft portable 16,000 grain RV water softener. I just love it. Bought this for our winter stay in an RV Park in Florida. The water here is very hard so thought this would be worth a try. Well,, installed it and what a difference.
Our water hardness was 180 and is still at zero (0) after three weeks of use. There are the two of us in our motor home where we shower, do dishes and use as much water as we want to and the soap, shampoo and dish detergent lathers up like crazy!
So very happy with this purchase. The advert said it should be around 40 days before there is a need to regenerate and this one is well on to that time frame before needing to do it.

I also got a pair of shower portable cup holder. Got this for the wife. It's solid. I've bonked my head on it, shoulder rushed it, donkey punched and tea bagged this thing and it will NOT fall off our glass shower door. ❤️

I am curious as to what people use to store spices. Do you keep them in a rack or carousel, in a cabinet or drawer? There are so many options.
Keep your spices tightly covered and store them in a cool, dry place. Whole spices stay fresh for up to 2 years while ground spices have a 6-month shelf life. Store red spices, such as paprika and red pepper, in the refrigerator. They will hold their color and keep their flavor longer.

Today I had a small return to Walmart($1.97). I went to lookup the receipt on my phone and the app said I could start my return from the app. I decided to try doing the return this way. I went through the process, reached the point of putting it back on my CC, said yes and the app said I did not need to return the item, it was up to me whether I used it or donated it. Wow!!!
I have got something similar with the Amazon.

I've been using the Camco 25ft cold weather heated drinking water hose. Bought this to water my horses in the Wisconsin winter. It was -10F last night with -35 wind chill and the hose worked with no problem. It melts the snow around it, and sinks to the ground.
The hose has to cross a gravel drive so I do have to occasionally move it so it does not get run over and it is easy to move as well, not a frozen hunk of plastic as the hose it replaced was.
I am also able to keep it connected to the frost proof hydrant, previously I was removing the hose to prevent freezing.

Fabric Softener Sheets – Spread dryer sheets all over the RV when it's in storage to keep mice away. Then when you take it out put the sheets in a plastic bag and use them for laundry. Irish Spring Soap – Same idea as the dry sheets. Supposedly mice hate the smell.

Frank,
You've lost me.
Frank you've lost me. Microsoft popularity is drowning? Howso?
Actually I was pointing out the Microsoft mobile market. Not the computer popularity. Because Microsoft has a strong hold in the computer market because of their worldwide popular software Microsoft windows.

I've been using a LE LED rope light. It works perfectly and looks great outdoors under the eaves of the patio overhang. We can sit in the family room and easily see the lights. It's even better sitting outdoors because the rope is long enough to reach across the entire section that faces us with enough to wrap around the sides.

Hi Phil,
You've made a nice blog. If you give full attention to your blog contents and proper marketing of the contents to the places.
I'm sure you will be able to earn financial support that will be more than enough for full time RVing.
Good luck.

Shower head works but the water just dribbles out of it without an real pressure..also kitchen sink blows water through the top faucet when using the waterpump.
anyone have these issues or have a fix? 2005 four winds majestic 23a
Really like this guy speaks about the shower head issue.
Water is dripping from shower head or tub spout when the control (handles) is tightly shut off.
I've this same issue tried to fix by my own but after 4th failed attempt, I stopped. I decided to change the complete shower head system. And bought a Camco shower head extension. I purchased only the shower head and it was a simple swap out with the head I was using before.
After the installation I switched on the cold water and held the shower head over the shower drain to see how the on/off switch worked and it worked fine.Note: This shower head have a on/off switch.
The water was immediately cut off and since the small amount of water that remained in the head past the cutoff switch drained and dripped out, there was no more water flow.
So, I think you can take a look at this RV shower head.

On my full house battery system I'm building, guestion about these inverters. I had pretty much decided on Magnum but Victron Multi 5000 looks promising. I will, if Victron, run 2 with them powering each leg separately. If Magnum, they are hot L2 and L1, run in parrell. I have option with Magnum of adding a third of needed. If I go with Victron, do I loose that option? Do I need to parrell in pairs and run 4?
You should go with Magnum. I run my home and shop all with my magnum inverter. Like this guy video, shared nice information regarding Magnum inverter.

Not sure which brand that bike rack is. Here you can look at Swagman RV approved 4 bike carrying rack. While on vacation camping at the beach, my family purchased 3 bicycles and wasn't sure how we were going to transport them home. At that time I bought this rack.
This rack is durable, sturdy and dependable.

My previous post about replacing bulbs with LED's was popular and I just updated it to include halogens.
Hope it helps
You also make video like this, a video attracts more eye balls and it's easier to consume.

I've been using JayLow rooftop mounted kayak rack. Amazing kayak rack adapter. I was not sure if this was going to be easy to use and install and it was so easy. I like how robust it is as well. You will need to buy a SKS lock (extra) if you want to make sure no one steals this from your rooftop, but it's not easy to fuure out how to steal ti, if the person stealing it doesn't know how to remove it.

You can use 4Ucam two digital camera. The system was easy to install and the product seems to made of good quality. I am happy to monitor the cargo inside my toy hauler as wheel as who is behind me before I switch lanes. The parking guides are a plus but just have to get use to how big my trailer is with reference to the lines. Seems to be conservative.

Recently started doing marine installations and I used the Pepwave HD4 LTE W-T,
This is a great instructive video
It put a bright smile in my face because it's inspired me build network installations of the Pepwave.
