    Beginning remodel sketching - looking for guidance and inspirations

    Thank you, Jack! Do you have pictures in your previous posts I could search out? Donn, Thanks! I think we'll be largely swapping out weight and distribution (which was my concern--the possibility of making it heavier on one side if I put the pantry on the driver's side). We weighed ourselves...

    Beginning remodel sketching - looking for guidance and inspirations

    Hello all! We have a 2010 Salem 26TBUD travel trailer. I want to make it into a personalized home but all the renovation videos I am finding on YouTube are shabby chic "let's paint it all white" vacation style overhauls. I'm not looking for design changes--I'm fine with the wallpaper and...

    AirVenture 2018 (Oshkosh, WI)

    My husband just got his technician's license! And the Baofeng is on its way. The cheapest radio that also covered the aviation frequencies was $170 so we're splitting the functionality between two radios for cost savings right now. So we'll have Wi-Fi, CB, HAM, and aviation radios. I thought...

    Cheddar Cheese Grilled Cheese Sandwich

    I was hooked on jam with cheese when I had a Monte Cristo sandwich at Disneyland's Blue Bayou. They serve the breaded and deep-fried grilled cheese with a berry jam. I've been making it that way since! I also frequently serve cheese sticks the same way now. Delicious! Other grilled cheese...

    Mexican taco, burrito and Bell pepper stuffer

    At home, we make a crockpot stuffed pepper that is well-loved by all here. Enchilada Stuffed Peppers from Pinch of Yum As others mentioned, we put in our own spice blend of cumin, chili powder, onion powder, and garlic salt. I also make my own enchilada sauce for it which adds more chili...

    Help me make a new trailer shopping list! (Ikea, Amazon, WalMart, et al)

    ;D Thanks!! I do need to acquaint myself with grilling! I see lots of foil packets in my future!  :D I don't think I'd have room for a second freezer in my current TT. I saw one video of a family with a deep freeze and saved it as TT Goals. My husband's been really wanting an Instant Pot...

    Help me make a new trailer shopping list! (Ikea, Amazon, WalMart, et al)

    Thank you for the wonderful advice! I am right there with you! I bought stuff like an entrance rug, 1 set of towels, cooking utensils, etc today at a discount store and still spent a fortune! I very quickly started thinking instead about what we could bring from home! I was thinking we could...

    Help me make a new trailer shopping list! (Ikea, Amazon, WalMart, et al)

    Oh thanks! I hadn't found that yet! I usually can't stand pinterest and yet I found the visual nature perfect for just that and actually made a pinterest board! Thanks! We have a lot of experience in camping and traveling, just one of which was in a rented travel trailer. The biggest challenge...

    Help me make a new trailer shopping list! (Ikea, Amazon, WalMart, et al)

    We literally have nothing else than what I listed but my husband has this same attitude and says we should go on a trial weekend somewhere this weekend and get whatever we find we need at a Walmart so we can head cross-country for a week the following weekend. That's a little too minimal for me...

    Remove sofa; put in table/counter/bar, storage, freestanding chairs

    1. Husband's hesitancy. It's mentally easier to be OK with picking up a sofa and taking it out than it is ripping out benches and table. 2. A table a chairs is going to take up similar square footage and would lose the under-bench storage, so would be a net loss. 3. Turning the sofa into...

    Is two per person a good number? Does it scale? 6 people x 2 sets = 12 towels, hand towels, washcloths, plates, cups, bowls, spoons, forks, knives?

    Famous movie spots around the US

    I've been to the Fandango and Gunsmoke sites in Big Bend, TX (Marfa/Presidio). I'm not sure if I went to the others in that area.
