  1. Microsoft popularity is drowning just like the Nokia phones. They now understand making another phone will not do the job. Unless they make a high end phone sales it in a less price. Like Huawei, One Plus brands are doing.
  2. Thanks for your suggestion. I'll try the vinegar and baking soda and plenty of water to clean the toilet. Let's see what happens.
  3. We were in Monument Valley for one night. At dinner after arriving at our lodge, we asked the waitress for a recommendation of a tour guide. She pointed to the man sitting across the aisle from us. Very serendipitous. If you find yourself in his homeland, please, do yourself a favor, and ask Brian from Monument Valley Safari to show you around. He is a wealth of information about his nation and its people. And he is funny and a great singer as well. He explained so much about what we saw that I had a hard time taking it all in. A good problem to have. The other tour companies we crossed paths did not seem to want to really interact with their customers and some seemed down right grouchy. Not Brian. Truly humble, and honorable. Go talk to him for yourself. Hope to see you again soon Brian.
  4. You can use Payoneer payment system. It's a trusted platform, over 190 countries payment transfer they have under cover. Payoneer don't charge any fees, whether you send money to email or direct deposit a bank account.
  5. The time you've selected for RVing surely you will experience freezing cold. However, you can follow the below instructions: Use heat tape on pipes and hoses. Wrap your freshwater hose and sewer hose with heat strips to keep the lines warm and prevent freezing. Heat tape can be applied around valves and connections most at risk of freeze-ups. You can also add foam insulation in addition to heat tape for extra protection. Use a space heater. If your RV water lines or water pump are not protected by a heat source, you can also use a small space heater to help prevent freezing. Practice safety precautions by keeping space heaters the appropriate distance away from RV components and vents. Add antifreeze. Adding a small amount of antifreeze in holding tanks can protect the valves from freezing.
  6. I was tired of the smell of a weekend of drinking and grilling out rising from the underbelly of our recreational vehicle. Then I bought the Camco ultra give my RV a proper toilet treatment. https://rvingreviews.com/plumbing/rv-toilet-chemicals-holding-tank-treatment/ I was wishing it will be a good toilet treatment, nothing more I was expecting. Surprisingly, it worked well. It made my RV smell like a Florida citrus orchard while masking the smell coming from the dungeon below.
  7. I suggest Pine Creek Gorge, sometimes called The Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania Beautiful place. I hiked it from south to north, and if I were to do it again I would recommend going from the north, hiking south bout 4 miles, and hiking back so that you see the prettiest part. The southern part is nice but you can skip it if you just want to see the highlights.
  8. My advice would be any of the small towns and hotels mentioned above, but don't give up on The View, check on line every day and at different times of day as we did and you might be lucky like we were, it really is worth it.
  9. I totally agree with you. Trying to stay safe that's all we've to do.
  10. I've bought the ADCO Pop-up Tyvek cover for my 18' travel trailer. https://outdoorfact.com/best-rv-cover-reviews/ It fits very well in that it covers the roof and upper half of the trailer which protects the roof from sun damage and allows me to open the windows (for ventilation) and access the entry door easily. It's light weight and easy to manage. I can put the cover on and take it off by myself (although admittedly easier with 2 people). I would like to include some pros and cons regarding the cover: Pros Lightweight body Protect your vehicle tires Good value for the cost Cons The sides fabric is a bit thin Life expectancy is not impressive Important Note: Nowadays, you'll find multipurpose products that could provide your RV with all-around protection. If you don’t have the patience to get individual RV covers in place, you should go after multipurpose covers.
  11. You're right, maybe I was overthinking the situation and missed the part of RV taken away. I've to read the police statement again.
  12. Very sad ending for a couple. The murder seems suspicious. What might be reason that couple was killed this is not clear till now?
  13. There are 293.31 miles from Beckley to Virginia Beach in southeast direction and 361 miles (580.97 kilometers) by car, following the I-64 E route. Beckley and Virginia Beach are 5 hours 41 mins far apart, if you drive non-stop. This is the fastest route from Beckley, WV to Virginia Beach, VA. The halfway point is Charlottesville, VA.
  14. I have used Dicor Sealant for the past 10 years. The major destroyer of a nice RV is water intrusion. Although butyl tape is used under vents, railing and windows, especially on horizontal applications you need additional sealant. I personally check my sealant twice a year for any deep cracks. The wise thing is replace the sealant before it leaks... NOT after. Yes it takes 8-10 tubes to reseal my 30’ Rockwood. But it cost me $800 to repair a delamination bubble on the slideout 2 years after I bought my RV. I’ve used the Dicor Lap Sealant for the years since and never had another problem.
  15. My favorite. Fried Bologna Sandwich Ingredients 2 slices white sourdough bread 6 slices Oscar Meyer bologna 3 slices American cheese 1 egg, fried over medium Directions “Notch” each slice of bologna to prevent curling. Cook over medium temperature until golden brown. Starting with a slice of bread, layer bologna and American cheese, topping off with your egg and the second slice of bread. Finish in pan with as you wish to use amount of butter until golden brown. Flip as needed. Serve with piping hot with an ice-cold glass of pickle juice. 🥘 My mouth is watering, and I can't wait to have a bite. 😋
