Thanks Camperfool! We certainly have no shortage of pictures. Both my wife and I are wanna-be amateur photographers so we take quite a few.
Yes, a decent size solar system will be installed, hopefully this summer. Fortunately I was able to top off the house batteries (three) every couple of days using the truck alternator, which got us through our stay. It probably wasn't very good for the batteries but I was careful to not shove too much amperage down their throats too fast.
Here are a couple of pictures from a spot we found in 2008 @ the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula. (U.P. Michigan) -- This was actually our first trip ever with a travel trailer and the week the propane control valve decided to die. Thankfully we had the generator and an electric space heater. This also led to the purchase of a Mr. Buddy propane heater that will never leave the trailer. (I'm learning fast)
