Has anyone been to the NC Outer Banks this year? Looking for current
prices/problems. Not looking to stay more than a couple of nights en
route to see G'kids in SC.
SWMBO wants to see Kitty Hawk and Kill Devil Hills.

This past Friday night, we turned on the water heater (electric) and it
heated fine.  Saturday morning
we had cold water.  Breaker had not tripped and everything else in the Rv
ran fine.  I turned on

Serious question.  In our 240 square foot rolling home
we have 2 TV's.  Newer LCD flat screens.  We put volume
on say 60-70% of max and TV program sound is just right
for us.

Looks like it is time to replace the house batteries.  Please tell me what
kind to buy.  I have 2 12-volt batteries which were bought in Canada maybe 7

I posted the question about when the GPS location system would be

We're getting tired of RV parks and are looking to do some forest
camping when we get to Laramie, Wyoming in about 2 weeks.  I'm
comparing campground guide books with the Forest Service web
pages and I'm getting conflicting information.

Going to Vancouver Island and going to take a couple of days B&B in the Gulf
Islands.  Ganges preferred.  Any recommendations?  Pamper SWMBO before
taking the camper to Tofino and Cambell River / Tahsis.

We're taking off this weekend for a little four day trip in the
trailer and, as I was sipping my coffee this morning, I happened to
think of something. Now that doesn't happen a lot, so I made a mental

Is RVing in Hawaii a cost effective and reasonably doable approach to
seeing Hawaii?  I've really not heard of anyone doing this, but since
we're RVers, I was thinking that's something that would be really
interesting to us if it's financially and logistically doable.
