    Packing Cubes

    LOL. Darcy had a cold when we went to Idyllwild this last weekend. I second the Kleenex body suit! We're probably going to move toward packing cubes eventually. We learned this weekend that stashing Darcy's diaper bag in the front storage area by the heater kept her clothes toasty warm for...

    550 / 560 Must-have Options?

    Welcome! We have had our 560 Ultra since November and have camped with our toddler in both freezing and warmer weather here in SoCal. So far the galley screens, heater, alcan cover and bumper are definitely must haves. The TV can come in handy when everyone gets a cold and it's nasty outside...

    Wanna bes peeking in(n)

    Welcome Mike and Carol! Ditto on what everyone else said--Ivan and I found all of the posts on options / accessories helpful while we were going back and forth during the ordering process. We don't have too many nights under our belt, but we love ours so far! This is a good group and it's a...

    California campground suggestions needed

    VW Tiguan

    LOL. My husband is the minimalist and the penny-wise person in the family. My brother jokes that Ivan will be reincarnated as a coupon in his second life. He's also 6'4" and brushed off the idea of a teardrop until he saw it in person. Aside from the pure beauty, the big kitchen, the simplicity...

    EXPIRED Mattress Cover

    Hi Peggy and Norm, A couple of other questions for you: 1) How tough was it to fold the mattress to fit it in the trailer? 2) Did it change how much area you had for your feet at the base? One reason we're leaning away from any major padding is hubby has size 13 feet...would make it a...

    New moderator!

    Thank you to Evan for our on-line home, and in advance to Ken for all of his help! I wish I had more computer skills to pitch in, but you've got my vote of moral support. (: ---Stelena

    Electric Brakes Electric Brakes: Yes Or No?

    Welcome, Drew and Renu! We opted for brakes--but we are in California. My family has a long history of braking down on inclines (enough said), we have a lighter tow vehicle, and we are legally required to have it if the trailer weighed in over 1500. Though we don't plan on packing that much...

    Woody Update

    P.S. We were considering Sharkhide and even saw great pictures that Linda (LadyMC) sent us. But when Cary pointed out the possibility of pitting if the coating was chipped we opted for the Woody Wax. Hilditch and others had great results. Shipped quickly too.

    Woody Update

    Hi Greg, We went ahead and applied Woody Wax XXX right off the bat. Keep in mind that the film leaves some streaks behind and a lovely residue on your lights that you'll have to clean off as well. Be extra careful cutting the ropes, etc. so that you don't knick the siding. We just washed...

    magnetic spice rack

    The spice rack looks great, Jim. Quick question--do you store the spices on the rack in transit? If so, any problems with the magnet losing hold and them falling off? Beautiful work on both the knife block and the rack! --Stelena

    Ever heard of Nanowrimo?

    Officially finished Nanowrimo for the year! For anybody who is into writing, if you participate and / or win you can get discounts on some software, etc that can come in handy (Scribener turned out to be an incredible writing tool). I didn't see these offers there last year. I'm glad the rough...

    Hatch Leaks

    Hi Hilditch, we are having trouble visualizing your spacers. We haven't had the issue yet but it would be great to see a picture if you have one. Thanks for the info. --Stelena
