| terapined Member since: Aug 6, 2014 Threads: 73 Posts: 11791 | On the road again with my RV Heading North. Taking it slow and easy. This RV campground just a couple hours north of Tampa Prices really dropping. Only staying 3 nights. Thats the recommended short stay for RV'ers Full hookup with power, water , sewer , wifi, cable, pool for 48 bucks total. 16 bucks a nite. Bargain. Emptied my hot water heater heater for the 1st time. I like to tow with a empty heater. Why carry the water. 6 gallons is heavy. It was a real pain draining. There is a part kind of covering the drain. uggh. I get my wrench in there and move it just a bit, readjust the wrench, move a bit again, over and over. Its good for the heater to do this in case any kind of buildup of particles. I try to empty everything before towing. 50 gallon water tank empty. I would only use this for boondocking and I wont be doing that anytime soon. I glamp with full hookups. Empty grey water tank and black water tank. I do throw a bunch of ice in the black water tank before towing. Helps break up any stuck remains that did not drain as the ice is shaken by the towing.

Its not really too bad The popup had an anode rod attached to the drain plug. That one was a real pan Its plastic which I like. It turns fairly easy, just a pain to access. Last one rusted on. Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

In 1959 Joihn Steinbeck hit the road in his RV with his dog to see the USA and meet it's interesting people and write a book about it. The book was Travels With Charley and was a huge hit, won a bunch of awards. Trouble was, as was found out decades after Steinbeck died, it was total fiction. After the first month he was bored to tears with traveling and was meeting no interesting people at all in the parks he stayed at. So he started staying in fancy hotels and eating in 3 star restaurants and made the book up. It's 95% fiction. Turns out he was the most interesting person in any RV park he visited. Which I totally believe. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Why would you expect to meet interesting people in an RV park? You might find "interesting" people but 90% will not be the kind of "interesting" you want to write about. The President is a fink. |

| Gandler Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 27 Posts: 4256 | In a historically unique move, after Congress failed to reach a deal Trump said he would make a Stimulus package an executive order (a legally tricky subject). He wants payroll tax cuts, eviction moratoriums, Student loan interest freezes and deferments, and a UI benefit extension. All via executive order.... He did not specify if he wants direct payments via executive order. (Outside of War) This may be one of the most expensive executive order in history. If Obama did it he would be called a communist. But, lets see all the Trump fans praise it as prime leadership... I personally think Trump is right, Congress failed to act so I have no problem with him attempting an executive order for relief, and I have long been a proponent of payroll tax cuts. I just want to point out the irony of all the Trump fans that will soon be praising him when he (without congressional approval) may make one of the most expensive and "socialists'" executive orders in history. https://www.forbes.com/sites/naeemaslam/2020/08/07/second-stimulus-trump-executive-order-payroll-tax-defer-student-loan-unemployment-benefit/#794f7596581e https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/07/us/politics/trump-congress-stimulus.html |

What he has done is turn the Democrat's tricks back on them. Usually they will refuse to act then let the media blame the Republican. Now, if they fight him they are fighting all they claim to want. And they get to tell their supporters they do not want student loan interest freezes, they want people evicted, and they want UI benefits to end for millions. Let's see Pelosi get on the air and say all of that! The President is a fink. |
