  1. My wife said she was not going to fix oyster dressing this year. She says that every year. I start crying like a baby and she gives in. Nothing like a fried turkey to eat. We had the typical to much to eat fan fare. (with oyster dressing and of course giblet gravy.)
  2. Had they had the small portable Traeger when I bought my grill for the RV i would have gotten that one. I presently have the Webber Q1200 for the RV. So far the Traeger is working well. There are some things you just don't want to smoke. My first use of the Traeger I used the Traeger recipe for steak. Smoke time, cook time, sear time. Earlene did not like it and was ready to give up the grill. Don't use smoke time for a steak is all I can say.
  3. I have a Traeger. Mesquite is my preferred pellet supply.
  4. If you want to avoid Houston, take Hwy-105 out of Beaumont and then pick up US-290. Many CG's along the way. Use Campgroundreviews.com for a list of campgrounds along your way and in and around Austin.
  5. Seefood diet here. Hey Joe (not the song), what brand smoker did you get?
  6. Ditto on using AH. Mine will switch automatically but I prefer the quiet of the AH and seems to heat a lot better. Previous MH had propane and HP and it also switched automatically.
  7. Happy Thanksgiving y'all. I blow my calorie intake at every meal, why should today be different. I'm not out of shape. Round is a shape.
  8. Everyone have a very Happy Thanksgiving.
  9. Some More Big Boy 20 minutes long. (Troup, TX to Marshal, TX) Chasing Big Boy
  10. I have a Walmart app and I use the Walmart Pay. Open the app, open the Walmart Pay, scan the card reader - walk out the door after bagging. I'll have to try the find part of it. Also have Sam's app. Scan and Go is great. As you pick up items you activate your camera, it put it all as a list and when finished shopping click on check out, or pay now, and proceed to the exit. No need to stand in line getting items scanned. Works great. Wish Costco had it.
  11. In 2014 we had hail hit our 2008 mh while staying in Hot Springs AR. There were 21 rigs in our rally group and all had damage. I have Progressive insurance. They paid the $19,000 roof replacement. As stated, your insurance should cover it and i personally don't think patching should be an option. You are 150 miles from Elkhart, IN, and there is an RV repair place their named Master Tech RV. If you don't mind the travel, give them a call. They do great work.
  12. Jetstream is centrally located to most of the attractions in Houston, Galveston and surrounding area. I'm going to have to take a run up there and look it over. The daily rate is <>$65 and that is high but in keeping with many of the more "luxurious" parks in the area. Depends on what you want. We enjoy a nice comfortable park but it is dependent on how long we are gong to stay. A few days to a week just about any park will do. The longer we plan on staying the nicer we like the park. There are many other parks in the area that are cheaper and comfortable. For just a week or two, look at Gordy Road RV Park at $435 a month +Electric. Anyone on a budget could afford that. (About $14 a day + Electric). Green Caye RV Park would be another budget stop at $495 monthly and includes Electric. Sites are close together but then you get to know your neighbor. Many others in the area.
  13. They save money by batch processing. That is, they wait until a set time or # of receipts, then process everything.
  14. I can't imaging making $157 million over a 5 year period to be a quarterback (Seahawks). No wonder it costs so much to go to a football game. I personally see no reason to support them if they cannot support what has been our traditions for over 200 years.
  15. Aqua Hot runs off Diesel on my Winni. I'm also around 60,000 lbs GCWR and the 450 does fine. The propane is most likely a 5 gallon removable bottle. Did they give a capacity? It would be used for the quick connect for grills. They don't proved a propane hose but you can buy a 25 foot one real easy. The 2015 Winni, mine, was built in 2014. The 2015 lists all electric. I have a 3 burner gas range and a 28 gallo propane tank. Go figure. We have been operating for 2 years now and the tank still reads full.
  16. Wow, I just checked the PFJ prices on TSD and one was $0.52. Houston had $0.44. Way to go TSD.
  17. Deductible is going to be the same if you bypass or replace with OEM. I'd go with OEM.
  18. Yep, as long as the air lines fit the connections, or get a separate air line for AF1. Should be good to go. AF1 is a proportional system.
  19. I have seen rates going up quite a bit over the last few years. I guess it is supply and demand. There re a lot more RV's on the road since the upswing in the economy. Most of the USA CG's are very high, but on the other hand you can find places around here for $500-600 monthly, or even less, and many include all utilities.
  20. Regardless of the type of RV we have, we all have similar equipment and can learn from each other. I'm on a couple of forums, one being IRV2. Yep, had my problems, have see posts where I disagree entirely with what is being said but in most cases I "TRY" and refrain from answering in any many that would "set the poster off." I also learned a great deal from the MOC forum.
  21. This topic is discussed on another forum and unfortunately is taking the slope of not going to Corpus Christi because of it. In reality there were more homicides in Corpus in 2018 (9) than in 2019 (6), so far. Many are indicated that they will not go to the area because of the recent finding when in fact there are more homicides in many of the other places RV'ers stay at than in Corpus. There are other areas to RV in around there. As mentioned, Aransas Pass is good, Rockport is also good but one has to remember that anything can happen at anytime. Being in the right places at the right time is better than the wrong place at the wrong time. Things can happen. I'm not going to change my traveling just because something happens that has happened in the past.
