Oh, she does consider all snakes evil, dangerous creatures but she is very visual, like humans. She even despises snake shaped things such as vacuum cleaner hoses. But oddly, water hoses are ok. Sena spends most of her time up high, either on the RV or my shoulders. Lily is more scent oriented, on the ground and likely to be sticking her nose into places where rattlers hide.
The point of the training is for dogs to instantly recognize that snake odor as danger and to back away. By watching a snake advoiding dog, us humans are safer as well.
I've heard it said that many hikers in the southwest are likely to come within striking distance of several poisonous snakes on any trail and not know it. One wrong footstep or overturned rock could mean death if you can't get medical help fast enough.

I think the number of pillows is in direct proportion to the size and price of the coach.
TVs were there in abundance. I was particularly impressed with the two that I saw which projected through mirrors. One in the bedroom, the other in the rear bathroom of all places. So you can shave or apply make up without missing a moment of your favourite morning show.
In the exhibit hall, I picked up some info on the Sea level tank monitor system. Don, do I recall correctly you installed this on your rig? I might need some tips.
We are back to normality tomorrow when we pull out, not too sure to where yet.

You should never show those pictures to my DW. Denise too is a pillow freak.
The See Level system is an easy install. I put one in Tinker and I have installed a few for friends who bought them. Most accurate system on the market from what they told me in Edmonton when I bought mine at the factory.

Wasn't interested in ceramic. We were looking for some weight reduction with the LVT but after they added another layer of luan to make up for the floor height we lost removing ceramic tile it was a wash.
Love our Samsung and you will too. Consider insulating/sealing off your vents. If your refer is in a slide you have 2 vents on the outside wall and standard insulation board can be used to do that. If your refer in not in a slide out you can plug the side vent and don't forget the vent on the roof. I removed the roof vent cover and then cut out the screen over that vent. I then cut a "plug" out of insulation board to insulate it further. A couple screws through the side of the vent into the insulation board will keep in in place and then caulk the edges. After that I used thin sheet metal cut to fit over the insulation and drilled out 4 holes to reinstall the vent cover and its 4 screws. Again, caulk the edges of the sheet metal covering. I wish we had taken those actions when the refer was installed. Plugging all that up made a difference in drafts around the refer.
BTW, you might also consider running your defrost drain hose through side wall insulation and out far enough to not drip down the side of the coach.

I got an email today from Laurie, she has had 2 sites open up in her RV park during the RVMoon GC. They will accommodate 25' and 32' rigs, and possibly a tad longer if you want to join Tim as a toll taker and stick out into the road a bit.
Come on Muteys! This is the busy season for Oregon Campgrounds. It will only cost you a $30 deposit to hold your spot. Here's a link to the park website

Remember to mention that you are an RV Mutant!

R U an RV Mutant too?
Martin, being fulltime, we donated 3 large trash bags of pillows, throws, etc. Tis about da space!
Deb, someone recently pondered how Oregon may respond to a whole bunch of RVM clowns in one spot. If I get out my old bag of clown grease paint, I'm wondering how many would like to paint up for an RVM Parade of Clowns??
Costumes optional.

It is trying to tell you how dumb you are for staying in Kanukistan during the Winter. Come to Texas young ones, come to Texas.
Arizona is to darn cold.
