As a teenager, I enjoyed fishing while camping. If there were fish in the water I could catch them. I caught a near-record bass in a closed canal. I caught a flounder rolled up in a crab trap. Now retired, I planned on spending time throwing a line in, but in a complete reversal, the only thing...

This bluegrass festival in PA is held in a nice municipal park. Camping is included in the ticket price. NEPA Bluegrass Festival

For my dual axle travel trailer, I have several 2x10's (long enough for both tires to sit on) for leveling side-to-side, and I used 1x6 deck board pieces about a foot long for under the stabilizing jacks. I have since stopped using the under jack pieces, as they just weren't needed and were more...

Item was not delivered, so start a Paypal dispute.  Buyers win with Paypal. Also request money back from the seller for offering counterfeit goods.

I had a pickup truck with a hinged fiberglass topper. If it rained, I left the tailgate open with the topper locked down, and the Honda generator was just tall enough that the back edge of the topper prevented the generator from being slid out. It was protected from rain, yet had ventilation. If...

We put a foam mattress topper in our Sunline, and it's now very comfortable.

I dump into my clean out between the house and the tank. The load has not been a problem, as it is less than it would have been had we stayed home. I had to install a 10 foot gate into my back yard and make up a 20 ft section of 3" pvc pipe with elbows on it to facilitate gravity dumping.

The brand doesn't matter. The capabilities of the particular phone does matter. Keep in mind that if you use a phone hotspot, then your phone is out of service as far as sending and receiving calls. If you have several users or a computer and a phone to connect, then you might want to look into...

Wyze.com I put a camera both on the outside of the trailer and inside the trailer when winterized. The motion detection feature will notify me if any pesky mice start walking around inside or if the trailer is moved in the event that someone tries to steal it.

I purchased this earlier in the season and love it. It really saved me when a brake line fitting rusted through. I rode it from the campground to town to order a part and get what I needed. ECOTRIC 20" New Fat Tire Folding Electric Bike Beach Snow Bicycle ebike 500W Electric Moped Electric...

Moles tunnel underground and aren't seen much; voles leave paths in the lawn, leaves, and mulch, and are seen out walking around more often. Raptor food.

I used Good Sam twice when both my tow vehicle and trailer were towed, and once for my car. All went well, except they send who they contract with resulting in long wait time for pickup. All costs were covered.

Which illustrates the point that it is very hard to maintain adequate stopping distance when every idiot on the road wants to pass you then cut right in front of you and eliminate your stopping space. My biggest annoyance when driving.

The GFCI receptacles are problematic. It seems they don't hold up over the long-term with vibration. The fact that it's sparked when you unplug something would mean to me that there is a least a loose connection or the outlet is defective. The outlet can be removed and the wires temporary...

We only use the basic Scott tissue, not RV specific paper, and no paper remains at the time of dumping. Either with or without a macerator.  No need to use any special disposal method.
