Re: Would You "Downgrade" To A Tent?
We have our pontoon boat docked at a marina on Tims Ford Lake in Tennessee. This is a huge manmade reservoir that has many islands you can camp on with permission from the state park system. We plan on doing this in the future. Otherwise nothing beats our king-size bed in the 5vr. Best wishes to you and happy Rv'ing. :)421Views0likes0CommentsRe: what could be worse than outside speakers?
I'd rather hear their music, as long as it isn't the vulgar/hateful rap, than the conversations being held several sites away at a decibel where the whole campground has to endure their most intimate details. JMHO. Best wishes to you all and Happy RV'ing. :)430Views0likes0CommentsRe: GFI reset
When you say your camping I assume you have electricity. Is so and you've tried all the other things mentioned so far you can simply visit a hardware store, Walmart or any other store that sells electrical items and buy a new GFI outlet. They are the same as is in your home and easy to replace. Have had the same problem a couple of times and it's always the main GFI that goes bad. Have never had to replace the ones that have no reset button. Good luck to you and happy RV'ing. :)288Views0likes0CommentsRe: Is it just me? Or do you not talk about Health Issues ?

I love it at memorial services when people stand up and tell funny stories about things the departed did. Leave 'em some good material! Totally agree. Funerals are without a doubt the most depressing ceremonies to sit through. When Diane's mother died we had her cremated as was her request. It was several months later when we had a ceremony and we gathered friends and family together, placed her urn on a table in the front and everybody told stories of their memories of her. The stories were great and folks learned a lot about her that they hadn't heard before. There wasn't a tear in the crowd as this was a "Ceremony Of Life". When I go I want the same thing but I would like it to be in a bar where everybody can raise a toast and tell embarrassing tales about me. I have a special place in Arizona in the mountains between Oatman and Kingman where I've asked for my ashes to be thrown into the wind. It's one of the most beautiful spots I ever seen. Best wishes to ya'all and happy RV'ing.316Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cell Phones.. did you know??
If you are in an area where you have no reception you better keep it on a charger or turn it off altogether cause if you don't that little sucker will search and search until the battery is dead. Then you can't call anyone. Best wishes to ya'all and happy RV'ing. :)521Views0likes0CommentsRe: Assume My Dump Valve is Closed and Won't Open !
Are your valves in the open? If so do as I did and crawl under the trailer and try to move it by hand. Just make sure your drain hose is hooked up and ready to flow into the sewer drain. While under there you can see if the cable is broken or maybe just came loose. It's held onto the valve by an allen head set screw. Good luck to you and happy RV'ing.374Views0likes0CommentsRe: Is it just me? Or do you not talk about Health Issues ?
It becomes hard not to talk about my disabilities when people see the Arizona brace I have to wear on my L /ankle which extends almost to the knee along with the spring loaded knee brace on the left knee which extends from just above the ankle and extends almost to the groin. In other words the L/leg is basically covered, so everybody seeing me invariably wants to know what happened. I also walk with a cane, use a special walker or ride a scooter. It usually become the start of a long conversation as well as a new friendship. Happy RV'ing to all of you. :)317Views0likes0Comments
