    Tables Can A Rotated Side Table Become An Official Camp Inn Option?

    Yeah, the bracket that Craig fabbed for us was invested with about 3 minutes worth of thought and effort, based primarily on what was close at hand. But we needed to have that to be sure that the concept would work. So there was no sense in overthinking things at that point. But you are...

    Tables Can A Rotated Side Table Become An Official Camp Inn Option?

    The main issue with the bigger Oregon table is where to stow it. The CI side table is designed to fit in the cooler cubbyhole of the galley. But I was thinking of something similar to your frame mount, only with an end angled up 45 degrees to mate with the bottom of the table leg. But what...

    Tables Can A Rotated Side Table Become An Official Camp Inn Option?

    Yes, last year Cary built us a tabletop from some of their scrap 11-ply marine grade plywood, and his crew moved the hardware from our concept to the new table. The only required hardware modifications were the original bracket on the frame behind the bumper (courtesy of Craig a few years back)...

    Update Seeking Tips About Camping With A Dog

    The bunk is the best bet when it is cool out - you don't want to get rid of the free fur furnace. On warm nights, the side tent offers a way to offload some of that extra heat. The one thing we learned from four years of continuous teardropping with our dog is that table legs and squirrels...

    Tables Can A Rotated Side Table Become An Official Camp Inn Option?

    Hi Old_Prospector! As explained in the post, the table top in the photos is simply a piece of particle board shelving from our old pantry that has been painted with exterior latex house paint. I opted to do that for a quick and simple proof of concept - there would have been no sense in...

    Tables Can A Rotated Side Table Become An Official Camp Inn Option?

    Back in 2016, we stopped at the factory for service. While there, we mentioned to Craig about how our dog had gotten wrapped around the leg of our side table, causing it and our Dometic to go crashing to the ground when a squirrel happened by. He devised a small bracket made of angle iron that...

    Strut-supported (dog Proof) Side Table

    I just wanted to update this post to state that we used the above table configuration DAILY for three years and two months before we finally stopped our full time traveling. It worked awesome and we had no problems at all. And it greatly facilitated living with a squirrel-obsessed dog on the...

    "ghost" Tail Lights

    This post is in regard to two or more of the many LEDS in the tail lights being on for no apparent reason (headlights, brake lights, etc are not activated). To cut to the chase on this issue, it is caused by moisture in the battery compartment. This post also explains what we have done to...

    Tables Rear Folding Table

    A while back someone asked about whether the Rear Folding Table option was worth the trade-offs, which were mainly stated as the need to remove the stored table in order to access/store items in deep storage, and that to achieve the most efficient galley configuration requires also purchasing...

    A place that looks worth a stop

    We've heard of this in our travels, and it is on our list if we are even near there in the future. From what we have heard from others it is worth visiting, though perhaps not quite worth going really far out of your way.

    Actually, that is my sister-in-law's rig, which is about as much fun to drive as a U-Haul. She went camping in it once before discovering that she has stage 4 colon cancer. So we are staying with her while she goes through six months of chemo (4 more months to go). She has a couple of good...
