Course you could rough it at a local walmart in the area.  Some in the near by suburbs may allow you stay there in the parking lot a couple days.  Being a 40 yr veteran of Chicago I wouldn't guarantee any will or that your rig would still be there when you got back.  Or you may find it was...

My local auto store sells heavy duty trailer wire in any # of wire configurtions, (i.e., 3 wire, 5 wire, 7, etc) that has a a heavy rubber coating.  You tell him how many feet you want & he cuts it off a big roll.  Then just hook up your male or female connector to it & your done.

My Darling wife was in the "Man's store" & decided to go to the bathroom while I roamed around wide eyed & endlessly through all the tools.  She took an unusually long time to do her deed, even longer that my endless wandering did.  I was beginning to wonder what happened to her.  She finally...

I believe derringers are those fast release buckles that you can use to hold down a TC to the truck.  Tie downs I believe are the eye bolts that stick out on the TC & you hook the derringers onto them & the ones that are atttched to the frame of the truck.  Course I make up a lot of words I...

RV Roamer, which terms are confusing ??? & Kenneth that sounds like a good idea.  I actually hung some strind off the corners of my slide so I don't wack my head on it (I wear a ball cap a lot & it blocks the over head view of it &, well you know, WACKO.  Now I see the strings to remind me its...

[br]Date Posted: June 25, 2006, 02:28:41 PM What if the wind is in your face???  :o EEE-OUUUUCCCHHH!!! OH YES, another FYI, This months copy of the NRA's magazine AMerica's 1st freedom (July 2006) has an article in it that explains all this more in detail.  I'm sure they would be glad to help...

:o MY DUMBEST HUNTING MOMENT!!!  Maybe I shouldn't share this but what the hey.  My son & I (he was then about 12 yrs old) were hunting in Illinois.  This was only the 2nd time he had hunted.  I would put him at spot then head down about 300 yards to my spot.  Each of us knew we the other was so...

I gazed over the outdoors recreational activities & to my disbelief didn't see anything about hunting.  So I'll start.  To remind the family of the many adventures we have had hunting (& hope to have again in the future) a beautifully stained honey oak stained plaque graces the walls of our...

Howdy, I am having a rough time backing my 3500 Silverado dually under my Arctic Fox 990.  The truck has a modified utility box on it & there is only about 2 inches of clearance on each side.  Make matters worse if I'm not 100% square I can't get my derringers to hook onto the tie downs.  Any...

Thanks Tom, we surely will!

I disagree with most of you about this.  Most states have concealed carry laws.  I believe Illinois & Wisconsin are the last 2 that do not allow it.  In Montana anyone (besides a convicted felon) can carry in the open as well.  Many states allow you to carry a weapon in their state if you have...

;D Vince & Sally from Montana just introducing ourselves.  Since the Ol bones are starting to rebel from tent camping we decided to get a slide in camper (Arctic Fox 990) so we're new to this RVing thing as well as forums.  But we look forward to jabbering with you all & learning from your...
