Travel Forum / Travel Types / RV Travel / September 2006

Well, not quite. We started our fulltime travels on Sept 27, 2004, I've been
saying the 28th, but checked our travel logs, and found out I was off a day.
Since the day we left the house for the last time, we've put 20,311 miles on
the motorhome, and about 40,000 give or take on ...

After several days of crappy weather when I should have been up at the
lake fishing, I have caught a doozy of a cold.
2 days of sunshine are forecast before crappy weather returns so Esposa
has decided we would be happier further south in a warmer clime.

We'll be coming through again in about a month. In the past we've stayed at
Ocala Ranch, but I seem to remember you recommending a different cg within
the past year. Is this correct, and if so, what was the campground?

A couple of months ago there was a long discussion about the best wifi USB
wireless adapter antenna that worked well in traveling.  The Hawking USB
Wireless G (HWU8DD) was mentioned and the HWU54D.  I have a Gateway laptop
with a Gateway wireless PMCIA card.  Will these USB ...

She was a special Texan.  She'll be missed, even by us republicans.  I still
think since we won Iraq fair and square in a war, that Bush should appoint
Clayton Williams the governor of Iraq and make it the 51st state.  (Or Texas
annex Iraq)

I know that the MH frig works pretty
quietly, not like a home frig which has
a compressor, etc.  Periodically, the
frig in the MH starts making a whirring

My wife needs an oxygen Generator/ Concentrator while she sleeps.
I an thinking of getting a pure sine wave inverter to run it at night any
time we
happen to dry camp. (which will not be often)

I've been looking for a quiet highway tire that will never leave
asphalt. I finally found another option for a 17" Load Range E tire for
my truck. Firestone now makes their Transforce HT in a 10 ply version.

I needed replacement mirror glass for my 2002 GMC Sierra, and was given
a whole new mirror unit (housing, motor, and glass) for my birthday.
The new unit was a heated power mirror. Existing unit was just power,
no heat.

I haven't used a CB in a very long time.
I have a  27 year old Teabery  but didn't want to take the time to
install it in the new coach on the shakedown run.
I stopped at the Radio Shack to get a hand held unit.

Hunter, I thought of you when I read this movie review:

Note the lead picture.  I wonder what drugs were necessary to get
that horse into the horse suit?  Amazing the things animals put

I 85 LaGrange, Ga Rac Trac 1.89 gas
I 75 Resacca, Ga Fly J     2.27 diesel
According to Gas Buddy which seems to behind the curve some times.
Maybe it's cheaper somewhere else.

Can anyone please recommend some good places within a days drive or so from
Southern Arizona where I can boondock or camp that has a shower, grocery within
50 miles or so where I will be essentially alone and can cook meals on a small
propane stove.

Hey, guys.  I'm still working on updating that '67 Travois.
Everything is coming along nicely, if slowly.  The complete 12v and
120v electrical systems have been rewired, with the exception of the
running/signal lights.  Man what a rat's nest of wires somebody had

Last night, actually 5:30AM, my propane
detector went off.  It stopped by itself
after a few minutes.  It also went off
again at 7:30AM.  This time the reset
