The weather must be crappy, or there is nothing on TV, or both.

Actually, I just returned from our first camping trip of the year. Getting my HTF fix!

You still beat me broken leg and all, how's that healing up?
Ya know I wanted to go out in March and have been so tied up, I still can't go.

Trip went great. I'm on a cane now, its still a bit tender at times. My daughter flew in to go with me and help her lame pop. Hah, she wasn't feeling well and I ended up nursing her!

Weather was cold and windy first two days, then sunny and high 50's Sat and Sunday. We did get snow on the hills around us, but I didn't have to shovel any of the darned stuff.

New stuff I put into the trailer worked very well. The Hunter digital thermostat from wally world was very timely and really reduced heat fluctuations. Tire pressure sensor system also worked well.

Shake-down cruise was a total success!

Sweet! I'm glad to hear that you are healing up well.
I was reading the posts about the digital thermostats, I may have to invest!

David,

I bought the Hunter Model 42995. It is really designed for heating or cooling, but will connect to a two wire 12 VDC control system. I just ignored the "cooling" switch position. This unit is non-programmable, but that didn't matter to me. Cost was around $20.

There might be better units available, but the price was right for me!

Jim

Just tell people that's the "cooling switch" is for the outdoor unit.
