  1. They must be tasty! Actually I just looked it up after all these years, they travel like that looking for females who could eat them or mate. What a choice????
  2. I won't jump in until June. Grand kids don't care I've seen them jump in early May. Whats with the march of the Tarantula's. When I was Ft Hood, one night cruising drinking we saw all this black things moving in the road, we stopped and looked and it was mega T's all going the same direction. Kind of creepy,
  3. Welcome! So do carry the 14' not inflated in your RV? How about the motor? I've seen them mounted on the rear ladder on a bracket.
  4. Can’t remember, are the mosquito’s like the ones in Jumanji?
  5. I’ll have to look into measuring the output. Hopefully with a multimeter. That will be my morning search.
  6. I’ll have to hitch up and load at the road as the driveway goes down hill at a slight decline. Have to back MH down. I’m moving the MH to the driveway this weekend so I will do the measurements just to see if it’s close.
  7. Controllers is where I will mess up.
  8. Very confusing looking this up, does this seem right: Measure from top of MH receiver tube to ground (A) With tongue of tow dolly leveled, measure from bottom of coupler to ground (B) B - A=C If C is negative I need a drop, if C is positive I need a rise. I know it will be negative. Does that calculation sound about right?
  9. Don't forget the crawly things that bite also.....OMG Tarantula's on the move...like thousands, black widows, scorpions, and them nasty inch worms or should I say them 6 inch worms.
  10. Thanks for your input. The solar firm we were using for monitoring offered to "take them off our hands". Now I know why. I need to move them quickly and have no storage available. We'll see what happens in the next few days. We are having a new roof installed so they had to go and they are not interested replacing them, too bad.

    Traveling with Cats

    Glad you got reunited. Did the chip have any use? We have one in our dog and registered with Home Again.
  12. Inverters are pretty much junk. 4 @ 45kW ea. Solectra serial #'s 1,2,3,4...lol, the first ones. I'm not sure if the label means anything. I think I will see what they are going for. Maybe a company barbecue
  13. Where I work we just removed 360 solar panels, they all worked when removed and are going to be given away. They are about ~ 2' x 3' or 4'. Do you think these panels could somehow supply my MH when configured correctly. What info would I need from them? They are about 25 years old and the manufacturer is long gone. I am the Facilities Manager, so I can get a few or more. My decision where they end up. Thanks
  14. Wednesday is the day!!!!! 1st day of spring, It's going to be like throwing a $100 bill on the bar at "Glitter Gulch". Covers come off of MH, boat and pool. By the way, for those who never went, "Glitter Gulch" was a fine Las Vegas downtown establishment until it's closing. Ahhh I loved that place......Anyways I don't care if we get more snow, the time is Wednesday. Yipee!! Yahoo!!
  15. See if I was in TX I would have similar ac. I thought having 8 ac was nice in NH.
  16. That's what I was hoping for, that they would just leave. I don't approve of "wacking" any animal unless it is life threatening or for food that's not to waste. I do have rabbits (pets) out back but there are no tracks near the cages. Them rabbits are mean, always biting the hand that feeds and they are cannibals. We have alot of wild animals going through our yard. One time a small fawn ran up to us while we were in the pool, a very large buck appears every now and then, turkeys all over, then the beavers that have been there since the beginning of time (thanks for the pond). Funny never seen a skunk.
  17. Get outta that cabin! Well at least taking out the trash, at night. What i heard was coyotes howling out back near the creek. Kind of creepy, sounded like 3. Then they just stopped. I bolted in the house. Mega spotlights on, seen nothing. They are there, tracks. Soooo any ideas to get rid of them besides head shots.
  18. Cabin fever gone.....I forgot when our appointment was for the MH to get a sticker, small recall and propane tank filled. I called and they said April 2nd. Yikes!!! I have like 1 ft of snow and ice on the MH cover, about a 6 ft snowbank in front of it and the boat to move, plus the yard is like a sponge. I sure hope the temps help out with the melt but we will need major landscaping after moving everything around.
  19. Thanks for the links Bill. Shoot, now I'm excited to get out there and see if I can break some TX records.
  20. C"mon up......Supposed to be 45˚ today and hit 60˚ on Friday. I took out my fishing poles to get ready.
  21. Standard equipment in our coach! The ages range from 6m to 16.....carry lots of liquor. The 2 smallest will have to wait. I think a schedule of where and who is needed. But we always field camp at Hampton Beach so that would take care of most of them as they all have a blast when only they come for the day........carry lots of liquor. Speaking of which, beautiful weather, beach and the boardwalk. Yikes, everyone wants to be inside the coach.....drives me crazy. They love to push buttons and switches. .....carry lots of liquor.
  22. Not much sleeping room in the coach. When we upgraded we downgraded the sleeping arrangements. Went from sleeps 8 to sleeps 5.
  23. I think 2 at a time is the best option. They don’t want the parents to go so they pretty much get what they want.
  24. Yikes. They all want to go. BTW, we have 14 of them. The logistics of planning this is a nightmare. DW and I have narrowed it down to weekends, and you know we will hear, they got to go this and they got to go there, it was raining when we went, etc. Anyone with a similar count of grand kids have to do this? This will be our 1st time. 1 family has 5, 1 has 3 and the other has 6, the last has none. Maybe 2 at a time? If you think that might be fun, try being at our house on Thanksgiving when they are all there. Maybe some of you will understand that sometimes I am looney tunes.
  25. Nice. Thanks for the link. I saw this place on TV (old Man vs Food).
