And armadillo tastes like chicken.

You need the trivet that comes with the pot. It is the "wire rack" called a trivet, but anything that will elevate the bottom about 1/2 inch or so you can layer the first eggs off the water will work. They (Amazon) also has an egg rack for around $10 that will hold two layers for a total of 18 eggs. I have made some wonderful clam chowder, seafood gumbo, chilli, ribs, pulled pork, and maybe a few others I have forgotten about I like to use the recipes from pressureluckcooking.com. He does a good video of everything he does and has some great recipes. There are many more out there as well.

Carl, I just talked with Kathy at Safe-T-Plus and they have made a lot of headway. She expects sometime this spring they will announce it.

Carl, I did those side trips on the norther portion and Olympia. Ray, you are not talking The 101. You are talking a side road from The 5 to The 101 and just like Hwy 199 many of those side roads are twisty turney but The 101 is what we are talking about and that road is a nice ride all the way from LA to the point I left it in Aberdeen, WA. Yep, all those excursion roads from The 5 to The 101 can be tricky.

I think a couple of the commercials were funny but they sure did not inspire me to go buy a product. I think the game was boring. Besides, NO should have been playing - but then I'm not a referee.

So on 10A you just turned on the burner and let set the AquaHot in the basement to 40˚?

Well, I got the new to us MH in October '17 and they were working on a solution for IFS then. Hmmm! Maybe I should give them a call. (Or email)

We were going to our Son's house for Super Bowl and there were 8 of us. There was about 1/2 dozen halves left over. Instant pot: Place in trivet. 1 cup water; layer as many eggs as you need. Close lid; set pressure cook for 6 minutes and after 6 minutes let a natural release occur for 6 minutes. Release the rest of pressure and place the eggs in Icee cold water for 5 minutes. Peel and there should be no whites pulled away when peeling, it's that simple. Use you own recipe for mixing up the yolk and spices. We also added some caviar (cheap stuff) to the top of the yolk mix after stuffing the halves, and on some we added capers, and others were just the plain old Deviled eggs. If you want softer yolks decreas the pressure cooking time. The nice thing about Electric Pressure Cooking is that you can add as much as the pot will allow and it does not change the cook time. 1 egg, 6 minutes. 2 dozen eggs, 6 minutes.

Get the Instant Pot Ultra. It has a setting for altitude adjustment and is 8 quart. You'll be happy to have the 8 quart. I just did 2 dozen eggs in ours for Deviled eggs. They peel without braking white.

My 40 footer had a little play and I had Freightliner go over it. The tech said he tightened all the bolts on the front and and it did make a little difference. However, I did buy the Safe-T-Plus and put it on the 40 footer. I can say unequivocally that it helped. Potholes, drafts from 18 wheelers were all reduced. My personal experience says it was worth it. But the best saving grace is how it acts if you have a front tire blow out. With the Safe-T-Plus you are supposed to be able to bring it to a controlled stop. Fortunately I never tested that theory. I have seen their videos. I'm on the waiting list for an IFS system from them.

We have been fine here. I haven't even winterized the MH this year. Don't think I'm going to need to. Worse case scenario would be to bring it home and park it in the driveway with 50am and let the AquaHot take care of the basement. Anyone know how much current the AquaHot takes without a demand from thermostat, just the thermostat on the AquaHot for basement heat?

As I stated, I traveled the 101 from LA to about 20 miles from the end in Washington state in a 40 ft DP towing a Saturn. Never even thought about unhooking - no reason to. I'm wondering where you had to unhook at. I have Taken the 101 over the Golden State bridge with a 40 ft 5th wheel, towed with a crew cab long bed F350 King Ranch, and in the 40 ft MH. Going around up through Oakland was not that much easier. One time I took Hwy 199 out of Crescent City. Now that was a trick! DW kept commenting how far it was down on her side. I told her to just pickup the camera and take pictures. 🙂 Since we were going to the Lewis-Mccord Joint Base we cut across at Aberdeen on Hwy 8 so I don't know about 101 going up to Port Angeles. It was all a good ride. The one time we took Hwy 199 we took "The 5" to WA State.

Let me set the wind straight when playing golf. I teed up, took out my 3 wood, hit a perfect shot landing on the green 150 yards away. I normally hit a 3 wood 200-220. The wind was straight in my face. Made par 3. Kwitchyerbellyachin' you just had a breeze.

The traveler is an open faced antenna capable of 3 lnb's and will receive all sat signals. The DOME antenna's will only received HD from DISH network.

Eric, what is your address and when are you traveling and for how long?

I used RV Trader to find my present coach. Made them an offer, they countered, I came back and they accepted. You know they didn't loose any money over the deal but I also know I got a good buy. I wrote them a check for the extended service plan and the next day I called and cancelled it for a better deal elsewhere. They were not happy when I put a stop on the check, but I was.

Steve, I don't know what satellites or bands DTV transmits HD on. The KD-3200 comes preprogrammed to Sat 101 and can be programmed for Sat 119 locals and will automatically switch between the two. Those two sats are on the KU band. It will not receive signals from the KA band, sats 99 and 103. According to the King Dome website the KD-3200 will only get SD channels using the H24 receiver. The only advantage of having DirecTV over DISH is if you are into sports. Their sports package is more robust that DISH's. My Son has DTV just because of that. Also, DISH received HD channels and Local channels if you are a subscriber to local's in your area. Just call them and give the zip code you are in. The KD-3200 works with all ARCs of the DISH Satellite system. Do you need DTV or can you, or want to, switch to DISH?

I also have a Traeger. They have a new one out now that weighs 40 pounds and uses 5 pounds of pellets in the hopper. Had I not just bought the Weber 1200Q for the MH I'd go with the pellet. Oh, DW has the Ninja Slow Cooker. I keep telling her the IP will do the same thing.

Oh boy! Don't get me started. DW thinks I'm an Instant Pot fanatic. I started out with a Power Cooker, gave it to my DIL, bought a 6 qt Smart IP and now have both that and the 8 qt Ultra. I like most of the recipes on https://pressureluckcooking.com/ and he does a great job of presenting his material. When it comes to models, it is so much easier to find IP recipes that fit all the bells and whistles than to convert to other model pressure cookers. My favorites so far are Clam Chowder, Chili, Seafood Gumbo, Baby Back Ribs, Pulled Pork, Hard Boiled Eggs....and many others I have forgotten about for the time being. Yes, I take ours (1 at least) with us when we travel. It doesn't matter if you do 1 pound of something or 3 pounds of something. If the recipe says 30 minutes then that is what it is for any amount. Try Hard Boiled eggs that are going to be deviled for a party. Through a dozen or more in the pot with a cup or so of water and cook for 5 or 6 minutes (depends on how hard you want them done), release the steam, dip in ice water and peel without pulling any white off. Yep! Love the IP.

Steve, I answered your PM. I'm still under the impression that there is no dome satellite antenna on the market that will received DTV HD. With that said, and the rumor that DTV is ending SD broadcasts, I'm guessing that one of the Mfg's will come out with a Dome that will get DTV HD. Better to bite the bullet, spend the ridiculous amount of money and get a Winegard Traveler antenna. You may get some answers HERE

Ray, Today is cold, about 45˚ but after today the temps go into the low 70's. No way would I come up there to cook in your temperatures. There are lots of campgrounds in this area and most a reasonably priced. You can find a CG for under $500 a month, FHU included. Come on down and escape that terrible climate. BTW, we spent 5 weeks in Bremen, IN. How close are you to there?

Looks like you have a moat on one side. Remind me not to mess with your wife. I like my teeth.

Well, it is 11:30 ish and the outside temp is 60˚. I sure wish winter would end.👺

So are you saying you are going to ask DW to help?

Nope! Not mine. Mine is the one with the travel trailer on 50 foot stilts.
