Congratulations Ivy and  you also Diane!  I knew she was smart when she was very young last spring by how quick she was taking to the basic training you were doing. Having a well behaved dog (dogs in your case) will make traveling a lot easier. I am still worried about traveling with Gunner...

The Walmart in Saint Augustine has signs not allowing but only rarely enforce.  In the winter it sometimes gets out of control and looks like an RV park.  Then you can count on the knock soon. My friend was living in his pick up cab a few years back and stayed at Walmart most of the time. One...

I know it is hard to read some post because of the writing.  Please try to not give up on your advice though.   I try to make my post readable but my english and punctuation are abominable.  In third grade 90% of my time was spent looking out the window daydreaming and wanting to be outside.  I...

I have converted several vans from R12 to134a in he past.  Most I have changed the compressor,dryer and orifice tube if it was full of crap. I usually use the flush and then blow it out.  I have even used an air compressor to blow the flush from evaporator and condenser although that can put...

I don't know about High-Point handguns.  I probably would not carry one but for a low cost handgun they nay be OK. I have this High-Point 45ACP carbine and I absolutely love it. http://www.hi-pointfirearms.com/Hi-Point-carbines/45Caliber_carbine.html  It has never had a jam with over 1500...

Concealed carry weapons need to be small and comfortable to carry or you will find yourself choosing not to carry at times. If I was a bigger man I would carry one of my 45 ACP handguns either the Kimber 1911 I shoot action pistol competition with or my Sig P220. I am a skinny guy so my 2...

18650's are great batteries.  I had a backup laptop battery from the company I use to work for.  It had never been used and I do not know when it was manufactured.  When I took it apart the 18650's had extremely low voltage and I could not get them to take a charge.  Wandering if some kind of...

Lee, my favorite Silver Glen Springs is around 72° all year.

Tub?  That would be the horse water trough thingy.  What can I say, it was HOT!  I normally stay on the coast where I have the ocean or waterway available.  It was empty when I found it besides a few leaves that had fallen in.  The water temperature was somewhere near what Florida springs are...

I only insulated the ceiling and the wall sections in the rear where the foam mattress is crammed up against the wall.  I have seen mildew on the outside of where a mattress has been up against the walls.  I have not seen cold enough weather yet to know if I will have condensation or not. I can...

I had a hard time choosing between the Whynter and the ARB.  The Whynter should work great and you saved money for other goodies. A SEEKER

I have been using my portables like Off Grid 24/7 (I have been too lazy to install my fixtures) and they work well. Check out SternWakes homemade goosenecks.  They would be great for directing light where needed precisely or maybe bouncing light off the ceiling. A SEEKER

I am loving my 50qt ARB.  Only time will tell if holds up and ARB is overpriced for sure but I like its features.  Still learning how to keep food like dairy and other items placed in the best locations. Today a couple Corona beers that had fallen over on the bottom and ignored too long had...

My KID has been hooked up and working for 2 days.  Well I guess it's working . . .have been in either a fog bank or total overcast the whole time.  Controller is putting in about 1/2 Amp and staying in float and my beer is cold :P I do plug in at night though. I wired in some Blue Sea 30 Amp...

I just finished installing my panel wiring just off center and under my panel with waterproof fittings that look like these http://www.amazon.com/Plastic-Waterproof-Connector-3-6-5mm-Cable/dp/B007HKIPYY  Can't remember the whole name of product but it was (something)skin and similar to above.  ...

The Florida rates for obamacare can be good depending on income but you have to have some income or it is not subsidized.  I am on disability and still waiting for medicare to kick in.  I got a quote for bronze plan and it would only be $33.00/month and that is great.  The problem is my...

2006 Chevy Express 2500 6.0 V8.  Really like the towing ability with the 6.0.  Also running oversize tires Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac.  Tires were probably a mistake but I had extra cash at the time and they look bad ass and ride good. When checking for fit mostly checked left side clearances...

Something like this looks better in the wild.  I would camo my van but it wouldn't work in urban stays as well. A SEEKER

Yes I got the shunt and Whiz Bang.  Looked like my cheapest option to have a decent battery monitor.  I could have bought a cheaper controller but I would then have bought a Trimetric monitor so if every thing works out it may have been a good way to go and I will be happy. A SEEKER

A couple years ago I was on a service call in an industrial park to check  why a customers copy machine scanner would error when scanning.  I saw a guy across the street with a cart full of office equipment tossing it in the dumpster. When I was done with my job went and checked the dumpster...
