    Do you store your RV at home?

    I have the option of grass or paved driveway. I would rather the grass to free up the driveway but the DW swears we get mice from the grass area. She could be right, parked on pavement all winter, no mice this spring!

    Anyone use a police/fire scanner on the road?

    Egress In The Event Of Fire

    I spent 38 years as a firefighter, trust me, you won't care about the drop to escape a fire. It's also not a bad idea to be sure you know how to operate the escape window, try doing it with the lights off, you may be surprised at the difficulty you encounter. Stay safe all!

    A different way of towing ?

    He went on line and was told he was within weight specs. After all, U-Haul towing a pick-up, no problem. Pick-up towing a fiver, no problem. Only thing that surprises me is why his boat isn't attached to the fiver, seems like it probably would be ok!  ;)

    Please help me squash the small fears that I made a mistake!!?
