    Sewing adventure

    Jean, I feel your pain girl! Been there done that! Old machines don't always work - they get gummed up with dust, dirt and lint and have to be cleaned first. Bobbin needs to be adjusted as well. But I did sew mine together and it was very easy. HOWEVER, making the bed is NOT! I'm sorry...

    Photographs to see if you like

    Ken, It's official - I'm jealous of your talent! Your work is beautiful and I have a strong desire to learn to shoot this type of work. Bill bought me a nice starter camera for Christmas last year and I have been unable to get settled to take some photography classes. But hopefully we'll be...

    Update Practicing My Pitch

    We were asked the dog question a couple ofinths back and it shocked me so much that I broke out laughing right in their face! I told them no but that we feed it Grow Pup in the hopes that it would grow into an Airstream!

    What kind of camper are you?

    We started out tent camping with 4 kids, 1 was a baby - that didn't last! We moved up to a Pop-Up and were out in it literally all the time - we homeschooled the kids and hit the road more often than not with their friends and additional tents. We loved it and missed it terribly when it...

    Itinerary 8th Annual Camp-inn Camp-outt

    George, just FYI I THINK I've seen rain sometime in my lifetime....I heard there was hail (whatever that is) here when we were in Houston last week. There's supposed to be this drippy stuff falling from the sky for the next three days starting tomorrow...do you think the sky is falling?

    It's official now.

    Welcome Linda from another Linda! We got our 560 this past March and it was delivered to us in Texas and personally I'm really glad we did NOT pick it up - the salt is still on the roads and the salty slush can really make a mess of the finish. Just my thoughts on that issue. However...

    What is that?

    This happens on big rig RV's as well - on 5th wheels you feel NOTHING - I know - I hit a bridge and never knew it! Tire Pressure Monitoring systems can be purchased to keep an eye on your trailer tires and might be worth it to someone. I have one but Bill misplaced the instructions! Yes, I'm...

    Bumper Stainless Steel Bumper?

    Well can you imagine a car or any RV without a bumper? Look at all the big rigs - bumpers are there in case you get bumped! Protect your investment!

    Hi, I am a wannabe with a few questions.....

    I went to a place called Truck Buddy and the installed the brake controller and wired my minivan for it. Did I need it? I thought the law required it, so I got it. Found out later it wasn't required for a trailer as light as mine in my state. Then I was irritated - paid a lot that I could...

    Truck stops, rest stops

    Truck stops I think are relatively safe but REST STOPS I wouldn't do. Too much possible crime. Truck stops have showers, etc. and are usually very well maintained. I also know that Cracker Barrel has RV parking spaces and they don't care if you overnight. I think it's basic courtesy to go in...

    RV PArk or Campground?

    Hey Tripp! Welcome! I love both for different reasons and Kathy's right about the overnight thing. However, I want to give you some information regarding RV campgrounds: We currently live in our 5th wheel RV trailer in a very nice Yogi Bear Campground in Texas. We travel with our CI and...

    MISSING!!

    Sue - I'm the "Daughter of" the Snake killin' woman! My mama! But maybe it's in the genes...I've nailed 3 out of 28 squirrels on our property in Arkansas when we got invaded and they ate our electrical wiring in the house (to the tune of $300 repairs!) I would have killed more but our son...
