Good advice on replacing the mattress if you can afford to. We tried the foam toppers of a couple different styles. Egg crate looking foam, even an expensive memory foam dual firmness that was supposed to be great. Finally broke down and bought a "Wolf Mattress Blissful Journey Pillow-top" from...

Unfortunately Tony is spot on. Because of the pressures involved there is not much you can do to "patch" a hydraulic hose. On a good note your local NAPA Auto parts store can probably make you replacement hose when the time comes.

Anyone going to be at Chain-o-Lakes for Halloween? We will be at site 251. I know that seems like a long way off..  but the entire SP fills up in 2 hours 6 months in advance. It is a spectacular event

I am in Kendallville (in my sig  ;) )

Man, depending on which factory and which direction, we gotta be close to each other.  :)

Analog .... Not digital. 100 years from now someone can see what I wrote if they are so inclined. 1000 years if I carve it on a rock.

Been overcast and rainy here for many days... But tonight the sky opened and Jupiter is bright and right to the South in my sights at the CG. Wish I was home without all this light pollution. I use the "star map" app on my droid around the fire pit to amaze my friends.  ;D

We are under water here!

Ditto! There really isn't any issue that one particular Brand would have the other wouldn't. The fridge, water heater, water Pump, Furnace, awnings etc. are all made by other companies and shared throughout the industry. Coleman is part of Dutchman who is now owned by Thor and they are the...

Buddy of mine was. Ellsworth sound familiar from talking with him long time ago... Jerry Ryan.

What are the thoughts of doing this at the campsite? If it is a lazy Saturday afternoon, and I am with the camper without a chance of distraction.... seems like a win/win.

The knife, pliers, wire cutter / stripper (at the pliers pivot point), and both screwdrivers are most commonly used. But the scissors, file, and saw are sure handy when needed. I have put a new edge on the camp hatchet with the file and the saw can cut a small tree limb

In all honesty... A Leatherman Multi-tool. I carry a pretty well stocked tool box in the TV but I keep a Leatherman "Wave" in the camper and use it more often than you'd imagine. Amazon Leaterman Wave
