Again, thanks for all the info.
I purchased disk furnace from Camping World which provides plenty of heat in our RV, safe, and can't be knocked over:

We also found we had a lot of moisture in the RV so we also purchased a dehumidifier at Home Depot:

I have found that it removes from 1 to 2 gallons of water a day from the air. That makes the coach much more comfortable, and seems to reduce the amount of heat needed to make the air warm, stopped all the condition on and around the windows, and stopped the moisture that was building up under our cab headliner. I highly suggest anyone full timing to invest in one.
Another thing we did was to purchase an "Extend-a-Stay Kit", and a 40lb propane tank to run our furnace.
And to top it all off, we have moved to southern Oregon coast, and so far the coldest night we have had has been 41 degs (F). From what I see, I think it has gone down to 27 degs (F) where we were in Ohio, a big differenc in an RV. We have family and friends here and we really like it here. When my DW totaled our car, got discussed at work and quit her job, it was a no brain-er to move here and enjoy life. We can see the ocean from our RV, and we are in a really nice park.
