    I have a Winnebago, what's your Mfg. 

    I leave mine plugged in all the time. I have to leave the chassis and house switches in the ON position so the batteries will charge.

    In my case I leave the inverter on because I have some electronics that will notify me if 110v power is disrupted. I then make the 8 mile trip to see what the cause was and typically it's the poor GFCI they have on the pole. Just reset until next time. The power monitor is plugged into a non-inverter receptacle. 

    The system I use to monitor is on MYSPOOL.COM. I just have the one to monitor power. 

    Also, on the Winne it is best if the step is turned OFF. Leaving it on draws more current than the tric-l-charger can support. 

    Happy trails...and that is just for my make and model. Check with your Mfg to see if switches need to be left on or turned off.

    I guess I'm confused regarding "provisions" for a cpap.

    I have been using one in a fith wheel, 2008 mh, and now the 2015 mh. The 2015 has a side shelf about the size of the cpap machine. I don't use the humidifier so just the CPAP portion itself. Plug it into the 110v outlet and away I go.  If I loose power the inverter for the Mh kicks in and the CPAP doesn't even hiccup.. My CPAP is a 2007 vintage.

    I'm about to get a new one so don't know what I'll encounter.

    I always ask if the site is level. If I pull into one and it is "way" off I call the office and tell them it is not satisfactory. Same thing for length when I don't want to unhook. When reserving I always ask.

    A site that is only 1 or 2 degrees off level should be no problem, auto or manual.

    If the slope is from front to back of the MH, care, as stated, as to be taken to not lift the rear wheels off the ground. That is where the brakes are,

    This is what she had to say:

     

    Created on 10/22/23

    I’ve had a pretty bad week and can tell you that I am being very positive.  I woke one morning in Shipshewana the last week of September with excruciating pain in my back but managed to make it home 2 weeks ago today.  I scheduled a visit with a spine doctor for the day after our return but it wasn’t until this past Wednesday that I had an MRI and on Friday received the diagnosis.  I have a broken back.  Meanwhile my primary sent me for a CBC on Monday and Tuesday morning an oncologist called me.  My platelets and white blood count are way out of whack.  I found out Wednesday that I have leukemia (AML).  It’s caught early (last panel was in March and no issue).  I had a bone marrow test at Methodist downtown on Friday.  These Methodist doctors do not waste time, I tell you.  I’ll learn more about course of action this week but have already started oral chemo.  I’ve known people who had leukemia for 10 and 14 years (only two I’ve personally known with it and considering I was a pretty active old gal, I’ve begun this with a step forward).  Obviously the broken back has brought me to my knees or should I say walker and back brace so walking is minimal.
     

    I’ve been on oral chemo since Friday and start a round of chemo infusions of Azacitidine this Monday.  Sessions are for 5 days on, 28 days off, then rinse and repeat until my blood is back to normal.  Yes, this came totally out of the blue.  There were no symptoms or they were so slight as to be negligible.  Needless to say, prayers will be greatly appreciated.

    -----------------------------

    Yep, lots of prayers please

    Thanks Bill

    OW! That pains me just thinking of it.
    I do know some that keep a complete set of duplicates in the MH, clothes, kitchen stuff, etc.
    My DW would be tossing out here blouses when we got to a destination and buying new.  No way to wear the same stuff as last year! 🙂

    You need to make a rule. Something comes in, something has to go out. (Hasn't worked for me either.)

    Thanks.

    My biggest grumble is loading up and unloading. Once on the road I'm okay.

    Mh is sitting in the driveway, it's been detailed, now just waiting for me to have the ambition to do some things in the bay.

    I was flushing the fresh water system and discovered I have a water leak at the pump filter. I'm sure it is simple. The filter screen was upside down and I turned it and that's when it started leaking. I'll attack it when the ambition comes back.

    Got in around 2:30 p.m.. Road were like all roads, good hear and there, bad here and there. Yep, nice to be home and glad to have the kids come mule for us. Earlene has been living with back pain since the middle of August and I popped my left hip a couple days ago. Ibuprofen is my friend.

    Woke up to 42˚ this morning in Carthage, TX, Ride home was nice with a road high of around 75˚. The engine liked that.

    I am on my way home from a Summer of being gone and I have to take the aerators out of the faucets and clean the sand.  Going to do a good flush when I get home. Drives us crazy.

    If your kitchen sink has a multifunctional sprayer and straight line stream you can unscrew the head and clean the gunk out.

    There is also a filter on or near the water pump and is usually a screen and it might need cleaning but it would affect other faucets, not just the kitchen one.

    Also, DW was complaining about water pressure in shower. Last night I pried the restrictor out and OMG, water pressure again.  I told DW that if the grey valve is closed she has to take "Navy" showers.  Water on - get wet: Soap up: water on - rinse off: Done!

    More information than what you asked for, but what the heck.

    (Regarding crabs)
    Oh my, those look good. My mind is spinning with all the things I could do with them. Do you have an insulated box and some dry ice?

    This is our 4th year in Shipshewana Campgroound - South Park and  we already have reservations for next year. Five years total in the area. Every time we go for a ride DW says, "I sure like it here!"

    There are a lot of soft pretzel places but Yoder's Red Barn has by far the best soft pretzel we have ever had, and the Rise 'N Roll bakery the best filled donuts,  I call both of them a "crack house,"

    Both places are keeping me in shape - round!
