  1. To add to your list:

    We have recently added pool noodles to our slide-out. I split one side of the noodle (lengthwise) and wrap the noodle around the bottom edge of the slide-out. I did this out of necessity because the wife almost knocked herself out when she stood up under it. I also got the noodles in blaze orange so the edge is visible. It is a cheap way to keep from going for stitches in your skull. I picked mine up for $1 each.

    Another handy item to have in the RV is a folding step stool. I picked up a short folding stool at bed bath and beyond. Now the wife doesn't need my help to put things away in the upper cabinets.

    Almost every trip someone on our group needs tools. I bought a cheapo made in Taiwan tool set at Harbor Freight and tool. My buddies laughed at me when they saw it but it has saved the day more than once.

    Here is my favorite camp fire trick. For not much money, you can buy a propane torch with a push button igniter. The kind you use to sweat pipe together. I am all for building a good fire from scratch with one match. But there are times when you just need to get that bad boy burning.

    One last thing to add the your list, My wife bought a folding bucket at a camp store a while back. At the time I thought it was the most ridiculas thing I had ever seen. I used it so much I wore it out!

    Great bunch of tips Gramps! Thanx!

  2. Update: We have solved the broken generator problem by "Backing in" a new one. We cut a heck of a deal at the Hershey PA RV show. We will be taking delivery of a brand new Jayco Greyhawk in December. I will be sending a picture to Beckleys of us in front of our new Motorhome with the caption. "Look what you did! We vote with our dollars"

    Take care friends,

    Eric
