RE: Camping near King's Island or Hershey Park Recommendations?

There are several OH St Parks not to far from Kings Island, Stone LIck and East Fork are closet but we like Rocky Fork best but a little further out. All have at least Electric and Water.

RE: Satellite tv advice

I used a dish 500 on a tripod for years (two beer set up time, then a winegard 1000 (not much better maybe one beer), but now have the tailgater with 211K set up with DVR ext HD and this is the best thing I've paid for in along time (even DW can do it). Very simple to use and has worked in places I never thought it would. Can also use it at our cabin. Can pay monthly if you want and if you are not a current dish customer you can get the RV set-up for $199 or at least you could a few months ago. I had to pay $430m for the receiver/tailger package and another $40 for activation, and the external HD $45 but it was worth it.

RE: Kentucky Bound

The Shaker Village at Pleasant Hill is worth seeing, also the Henry Clay Estateand Mary Todd Lincoln House are also interesting.

RE: RV Parks Santa Barbara, CA and Portland OR

We like Ainsworth State Park in Troutdale near Portland about 30 minutes into downtown. It has full hook-ups and some pull ins for big rigs. Very scenic right in the Columbia Gogre near waterfalls. It's a no reservation park but if you get there early afternoon you can generally get a site.

RE: Satellite TV Delima!

My TT has two external connections outside and two inside My tailgater works throught the external Sat connection, just like the old dish 500 tri-pod I used to use. I use a a-b sws to change from sat to OTA which has the amplified signal from the batwing.

RE: Under-bed drawers

I installed two doors on the front of the bed so we can store water, paper products and such there and get to it without lifting the bed. Generally had to chase the Beagle off the bed to lift it. Did the same thing on the dinette seats.

RE: What do you tie your awnings down with?

Tied mine down and got a way with it for msny years. Did have to get up in the middle of the night several times. Finally with the awning tied down and a sudden strong wind the twisted the tied down awning so bad I couldn't get it up and had to take it off and leave it. Now I just roll it up every nite. Better safe than sorry.

RE: 2013 Major League Baseball Season Thread

Spend half my time drinking beer while listening to the Reds and Yankees, the rest I just waste.

RE: Trip out west

WE are from Oregon but have lived Ohio for many years after retiring. We have made the trip to the west coast numerous times using varius routes. We prefer to use I-80 but I-70 is just about the same and both have interesting things on the route. You could also go up to I-90 and go through the Dakotas on the way back and see the Black Hills. We did the southern route I-40/I-10 twice when going out in the winter and it does add a couple days but the scnery is very different. Being retired military wqe have lived near most of these routes and Early spring is a gamble on waether and summer you risk severe storms. Weather versus routes needs to be considered but we've never been delayed more than two days. The computer makes it fairly easy to do route planning and this forum is an great place to get specific info. Good Luck.

RE: Outer Banks or Fla panhandle? Compare

Great choice. Then sun sets from the campground beach are awesome. Also there is a funny little resturant right outside the park called Cone Heads that has good food at reasonable prices - even dog friendly outside and can get beer and wine. It's a little different but the waiters are cool and efficient.

RE: Outer Banks or Fla panhandle? Compare

We had never been to the FL Pandhandle other than Panama City/Pensacola area before this April. Had been to the OBX several times. To us OBX and the Pananma City/Pensacola ares are about the same - tourist kind of places. We time we did the St Joe area and stayed at the St Park on the Peninsula and were very impressed. Great baeches with few people. A long drive to things but we liked it much better than the crouds at OBX.

RE: Tollbridge Park - Hood River, OR

Don't think it's the one across the river, thinks it's in Parkdale, and a county park. We never stayed there, we use Mamaloose or Viento Stae Parks. Taking a big rig over the Hood River Bridge is no fun.

RE: Chaco Canyon well worth the drive!

We took our TT in two years ago and it was awesome - still finding things that came loose though. Think it's more impressive than Measa Verde,Canyon De Chelley and Bandelier.

RE: Where to Stay Along the Way: So Cal to Portland, OR

We generally stay at Ainsworth State Park near Troutdale about 30 minutes to Portland, full hookups very scenic and near waterfalls in the Gorge. No reservations but if you get there early afternoon you can generally get in. Also Harris Beach State Park is our favorite, near the beach, and just before the border into CA. Most of the public campgrounds near the Redwoods are no hookups and the private ones like parking lots. Enjoy your trip.

RE: VIP211k DVR

As I recall - The user manual says that thee hard drive should have a power connection and not be over 750K but I know from trying that you can go at least 1TB and I've heard the power may not be necessary.

Lewis & Clark St Park MT

Would appreciate any info on this campground. Want to stay a couple nights in Jul but can't seem to reserve a site with electric (apparently only a few). DW likes A/C but I'm not sure that it will be that hot in this location.

RE: just ordered a Tailgater

I may be wrong but I think that if someone steals a Tailgater and you report it to Dish as stolen they will not reactivate it. I chain mine up anyhow since theives may not know this.

RE: Campgrounds near Coeur d Alene ID

RV Park review site give Blackwell good marks but Trip Advisor not so much - Main complaint was about grumpy older folks who run the place. Since I fit in that grumpy old guy category we should be fine there, especially since the alternatives are further than we want to compute from. Thanks for the inputs.
