Oh bugger.  The one they gave me does have formaldehyde.  Just called my dad and he said worst case scenario is that it breaks up the solids enough to go out to the leach field.  So solution is to put make sure I have a filter on the septic tank and if I don't hubby is bringing one home from...

Do you mean that I am not supposed to use the bottle of blue chemicals that the dealer gave me in the bathroom?  If it is going to kill everything in my septic tank then I guess I better call the septic service before my pump tank pumps up to the septic tank.  If you are not talking about those...

I'm a mainah!! When we bought the camper they gave me the maine camping guide magazine.  It's website is www.campmaine.com this has been a great help being new to RVing.  The Downeast Acadia region starts on pg 68.  The first campground you come to after getting on the island is...

I am petrified that this is going to happen to us.  Our 5 yo thinks he is a big help and wanted to show everyone our new camper when they would come over.  So of course he had to show them the tube that water comes out of.  Luckily we hadn't used it at all.  I keep trying to explain to him that...

I don't think Lady will change.  She and my husband are up every morning between 4-6ish so she is an early riser.  But she loves going to grammy's house to play with her four friends (another potcake, golden, scottie, and german shepard).  So I am not too worried about her. 

We did our first over night memorial Saturday and took both the collie, Shawnee and the potcake, Lady.  Lady will be staying at her Grammy's house next time she doesn't like a leash at all and wants to be out at 4am  :P .  Shawnee was wonderful.  She stays right with us the whole time and just...

Thank you for all the great recommendations especially carrying cash.  We never do and it never dawned on us that they wouldn't take credit cards.  Also I am going to check out the other one and see if they have more up here in Maine.  PA doesn't seem to have complete coverage up here.  * oh...

That was one of my biggest concerns when I bought our TT.  I was afraid that someone thought that they were a handy person and tried to fix something his/herself and botched the job.  Thus putting my family in jeopardy.  I didn't want to take that chance so we shelled out the extra to buy new. ...

I have to go with Superglue b/c we really haven't had any emergencies on the road.  But my 3 boys are always getting cuts and that stuff works better then the glue at the hospital.  One twin glued at the hospital huge scar other twin glued at home by me no scar.  And it works pretty good on...

Is Passport America really as good as it sounds?  Are there any hidden costs?  I usually hold to the saying if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. Or should we be looking into a different club?

Thank you for the link I must have been looking in the wrong place in the library.

My b-i-l got a pm from a guy on his forum asking about renting a RV in the USA and traveling on RT 66.  The guy's problem is a handicap that makes it so he has to use controls (lights, blinkers, and horn) on the steering wheel.  In Italy he also has a restriction on his license for the amount of...

Ok, I know how crazy I seem worrying about this but... Do they make sheets for camper beds that are missing a corner?  I really didn't want my kids sleeping on a bed that has extra play in the sheet.  Just wondering if I will need to brush up on my non existent sewing skills.  Thanks, Meg

MLCB Farrell can I just say thank you for opening your heart and home to your "Dutch daughter"  I was a foreign exchange student to New Zealand and to Italy and both times had wonderful families that hosted me.  You are giving her one of the most wonderful experiences of her life and she will be...

Sorry I am the wife so you are beginning to loose me and starting to scare me.  Did I make the wrong choice?  We have only put down a deposit so I think we can still change it.  Here is what we have.  2002 Yukon XL  Denali the towing guide says 8,000d (d= 3.71:1  axle ratio not a clue asked the...
