Lets talk poop! Keeping tanks clean and sensors working is always a popular RV discussion. It’s been a problem for all of us. Why does my black tank sensor always read 1/3? Why won’t my tank drain? These are daily questions on RV forums and Facebook. And for good reason. The sensor systems installed on…
Hi all! Hows everyone doin tonight? We’re in Asheville, North Carolina. Believe it or not, we went here for the dog park! Our poor pack has been leashed for like 6 weeks, they were itchin to get loose, and we haven’t found a good fenced dog park in East Tennessee. (Now that I say…

Our motorhome came with 4 golf cart batteries and a 2000 watt inverter that can run nearly everything, for a while. To charge those batteries, we can use our generator, but wouldn’t it be nice not…
A lot of people are scared to death of electricity. Glad I’m not one. Our motorhome has a dozen 115v AC breakers in the main power center, 40 or 50 12 volt fuses in 2 different fuse panels, plus various other relays, switches, controls, etc. And maybe 2000 feet of wire. And all this stuff…
Eleven years ago, My lil Brian announced “I wanna join Cub Scouts.” Our 2 older boys had both been in scouting, it’s a quality organization, we signed him right up. Brian liked Cub Scouts, and before long, he was announcing to anyone who would listen “When I get big, I am going to be an…
