    iPhone, iPad etc Apps - What do you use

    We use both Woodall's and the Trailer Life Directory (Good Sam Club)in the hard copies but while camping in Oregon we were shown an App called AllStays Camp & RV which we went on to buy. Not cheap for an App, something like $6.99 but it works with or without WiFi ("with" is better of course but...

    Wall Of Fame

    I just noticed Evan "fixed" my signature. I am not sure we are paying him enough for all he does. Anyone have a spare Tow Vehicle we can donate to the cause in appreciation? Jim & Mary Anne

    Wall Of Fame

    J&S I don't think so, seems to me I have seen Boulevard out here in California at BevMo. You must have one up near you in Castro Valley. The graphic is cool but so is the brew. If you find it, also try the "Double Wide IPA". Twice the hops at about 7%. I mispoke above, that is a lable from...

    Wall Of Fame

    Thought I had added the "States" and "Nights Camping" images to my profile. Oh well, back to the drawing board, ie, "Evans Instructions". Jim (you needed the "[img]" tags before and after your image.) --Evan--

    Wall Of Fame

    Jim & Sue commented in their journal of picking up Spamalot about signing the Wall Of Fame. We stayed a week in Kansas City before picking up our new trailer in September and had some of the local Boulevard brewery "Single Wide" IPA. Couldn't resist adding the six-pack image to our posting on...

    Separated At Birth?

    While waiting for our new CI 560 to be completed we stayed with family in Kansas City. One day Mary Anne and I went to the WWI museum there and found it to be an excellent museum with the entire sequence of the "Great War" very well laid out (there was nothing "Great" about it of couse)...

    Camping Near Big Cities

    Saying you often have to Camp well outside the cities pretty much confirms my conclusions as well. I guess an hour each way is what far too many suburban commuters have to put up with each and every day anyway. I can do it if needed as well. Thanks, Jim

    Camping Near Big Cities

    On our return trip home to California, after picking up our CI, we had not planned ahead and ended up north of Seattle (Everett) late in the afternoon. We were heading to the coast of Oregon on our way to California so we were coming down I-5 intending to make our way over towards Astoria the...

    Traffic accident with CI?

    Of course getting one back to Wisconsin from California, or anywhere else for that matter, would be another issue. I suppose you could rent a U-Haul truck and put it inside. I don't think that my AAA or State Farm towing coverage would get me very far. I was in heavy stop-and-go traffic...

    Outside Temperature

    Ken and Kathy, The problem with putting it on the metal frame is that once the metal gets to ambient temperature it will "hold" that temperature for an extended period. The metal will stay cold or hot long after the air temperature has changed. I'm not trying to be too a**l about this but I...

    Another Swivel Jack Story

    You will see below a short saga of trying to find a place to mount an outside temperature gauge. It closes with the fact that it was raining and in the mid-30s when we left in the morning. We had a small bag of garbage to dump and, because it was raining, and damn near freezing, we drove by...

    Outside Temperature

    While on the road home with Nepenthe we stopped at a Walmart in South Dakota to pick up a couple of things including a small clock. Found what we wanted but right next to the clocks was this little Inside/Outside temperature monitor. It is quite small and has a little "sensor box" that you...

    Dumping grey water

    Stelena, We just got home from picking up our new 560 (Nepenthe). We took 3 weeks and stayed in the trailer every night. I am going to add some lessons learned (the hard way) to this "Confessional" but one thing I learned is that while it is small it is not as "simple" as I first thought...

    Water Issue

    We just got home from a 3-week trip after picking up our trailer in Necedah and we did exactly the same thing. The Coleman cooler is great because it "fits" (obviously) but it eats ice. Fortunately we had the front a bit higher than the back and the water went into the right hand bin (facing...

    Update Nepenthe Is On The Road

    Nepenthe Is On The Road - The Trip continues Hi everyone, Last night, 9/22, was our 15th consecutive night on the slow road home to Carlsbad, Ca. and we have learned a lot. We are currently in Brookings, Oregon at the Harris Beach State Park. Staying two nights because it is so nice here...

    Update Nepenthe Is On The Road

    After almost two years of research and comparison shopping we finally picked up our shiny new 560 Ultra (#460) last Thursday, 9/8/11. Got to Necedah at 10:00 and finally drove out at 4:30. Cary's checkout was perfect. Found a couple of small things which were corrected immediately. Castle...

    Posting Photos From An iPad

    Evan, and anyone else with an iPad, Haven't figured out how to post photos from my iPad to this forum. I am fine from a PC but there doesn't seem to be a way to access my FTP link. I looked through the various forum postings but did not find anything on this particular subject. It may be...
