    Water coming out from under sink

    Evan, remove the left panel in the under counter storage area with a few screws and you will be able to see everything just fine - including the trap that you put antifreeze in. Hilditch

    Dining Canopy

    Although we prefer our custom 12 x 12', Anna & Steve's solution is your best bet. The one you want hasn't been created yet other than a standard umbrella. Anything smaller than a 10 x 10 straight leg will protect the cook only. Remember, a 10 x 10 slant leg is really only a 9 x 9...

    Best Road Atlas?

    I think Evan meant a MacBook with Google Maps. : ) However, we use the Rand McNally road atlas - Deluxe Midsize which is a little smaller than 8 1/2 x 11". It has most of what the big map books have but fits great in door pockets and is spiral bound to stay open to the page you want. It is...

    Cathy, right now we are 80% go for Cheaha State Park (in your back yard) for the weekend of July 15th - Mountain top campground only. It should be the coolest place in Alabama that weekend. You & us could be a start. Hilditch

    Quick Rest stop set up

    It 'is' just fine. We didn't detect any difference from the OEM jack. Only Evan would think it is more better because it is centered and thats a head thing. Either way is a very stable tripod and at 65 yo we don't get it rocking bad enough to cause a problem. We keep the tires inflated...

    How quickly can you make camp with your teardrop?

    Wide open Theresa. We have a dry drive under basement garage and the relative humidity seldom gets above 60%. No mold issues in the tear or the basement. Hilditch

    How quickly can you make camp with your teardrop?

    Frank, It is a Shelter Logic canopy and looks like one except for ridges half way between the posts made by plastic kitchen whisks held by slide in poly carbonate brackets. The canopy is held taught over them by 5# bags of lead shot slipped into pockets sewn into the inside of the canopy...

    How quickly can you make camp with your teardrop?

    We keep our tear in the garage with the windows open so it stays fully packed with the bed made. No utensils needed from the kitchen as all duplicates have been purchased. Just fill the cooler, add water and pack the car to go. Nothing on the bed. The car gets the canopy, misc. & containers...

    Mardi Gras

    It rained a little at Mardi Gras, but Spirits prevailed! Our shoes didn't float very far away so we headed for the parades. Hilditch

    Sagging doors.... What to do?

    Hey everybody, snug up your door hinge screws. If they are a little loose the vibration/bumps will cause them to eat up the wood. Don't over tighten, just make sure they are not loose. All of them. If you detect a change in the way the door shuts, check the screws - now! An ounce...

    Couch / Bunk Beds 550 Vs 560 Bad Weather Comfort Level

    Attitude. One person can be sitting there just a comfortable as can be, while the person next to them is miserable as hell. We find the 550 great for sitting up for a couple of hours - after that I get antsy and my feet want down (they would in a 560 too) and Susan will slide down. Class A...

    Another ski weekend in the 560

    Cary, Are there fresh air exchanges in the AC or the heaters? (Other than the condensation drain.) I would think not. Hilditch

    Another ski weekend in the 560

    Evan, I too have had my butt frozen a couple of times by a 1/4" open window. What we learned was that a 1/8" opening of one window is enough to still wake up in the morning. Open only the window on the downwind side & just crack the vent as little as possible. Hang a jacket over the opened...

    Another ski weekend in the 560

    Evan, you really are too nice a guy. If me, that dude would have moved. Period. Nice shots. When you, more than most, get your 100 night badge you can feel pride in knowing that you earned it and learned a lot along the way. Mine was a fair weather gimme in comparison. Those under 100...

    Stainless Steel!

    What a great chance for an artistic endever! Here lies an opportunity to turn a well seasoned tear into a unique piece of camouflage art with three cans of rattle paint in flat light colors. This covers items 1 through 4 above also. Bear, thank you for your recent informative posts. Hilditch

    Potato Masher

    Bug Zappers

    Electric bug zappers (Toad feeders) won't fill the bill. They are good at killing harmless moths. You are going to think I'm crazy until you try it. Invite a yellow jacket to dinner. Be nice, talk nice & share. They don't eat much and if you don't threaten them they can be moved from your...
