RE: Halo Resorts -- Ripped off
I guess dirt bags and rif-raf can get memberships at private membership RV CG just like the "regular" rif-raf and dirt bags that go to public campgrounds.
From the OP I thought for a minute that everybody that goes to a public campground HAS to be rif-raf and dirt bags.

RE: Looking for Link to a video
That video just showed me that I will not by a Jayco. Could not believe how fast the employees where rushing around. Can see how quality could possibly get missed. Video shows how those things are SLAPPED together. I know it just not Jayco.

RE: Round Bar Twisted.....Why?
Do you have the full on 'dual cam' setup? How much of an angle did you put the setup under?
Mitch
Yea it is dual cam setup. Also when it is connected it looks like the way yours do. Approx. the same amount of space between the bars and trailer frame and paralle with ground and trailer frame.
I have towed with it several times before I noticed it. It had to happen between either the last 2 times I towed as I noticed it the last time I towed it and not before.
I do have them connected when backing. I dont think I made any extreme turns when backing but I very well may have made some sharp turns when towing as turning in to get gas etc.

RE: Round Bar Twisted.....Why?
If I had plenty of room under the frame, enough links, and paralle to frame and ground could the cams limit tight turns and bend the bar with out hitting the trailer?

RE: Round Bar Twisted.....Why?
When installed they where on the 5th link and paralle with the ground, pluse the bars where several inches below the trailer tonque frame.
Cant really see the bars here but might help.

Round Bar Twisted.....Why?
One of my round bars have twisted. I do not know when it got twisted so I can not figure out what I did to twist it. I also dont know what side it was on when it twisted. Can some one tell what might cause it to twist.
I have backed up with them on, but I have read that is ok with these. Was I wrong.

RE: Hunting Island vrs MBSP
The front loop is open with mostly tall trees and has a bit of an ocean breeze. The back loop is in dense palmetto forest and is usually buggy and hot. Both loops are beautiful.
Would you say the back loop is more private? It appears that some of the sites you are right at the back side of your neighbor, or can see what is for supper on the site that is across you, or they are right on the road. I perfer we have a deep site somewhat off the road. We have a lab and although friendly she tends to bark as peaople walk down the road especialy after a day or two when she gets comfortable. She not a "yapper" but does bark when people walk by. Do they allow dogs on beach.
Thanks again for the camping site photo site. HISP does look wonderful and would love to stay there but I try to always think of Dakato barking a little bit. She does not bark on and on for 10 or 15 minutes like I have see other dogs bark but she barks for about a minute or two and I want to considerate about that.

Hunting Island vrs MBSP
We stayed at MBSP and wondering what is the differences in it and Hunting Island?
Based on family and friends that stayed at MBSP we gave it a try and enjoyed but we are looking at trying Hunting Island.
Our site at MBSP had vegetation between the sites which provided some privacy which we enjoyed. It was convenient to drive 10 minutes to get supplies, but a 20 30 minute drive would be ok to get supplies if needed. Did like the shade of MBSP.
I liked that reserveamerica had pictures of the sites at MBSP but it does not have that for Hunting Island.
Where could I find pictures of sites for Hunting Island? Those that have stayed at both or either could you tell me your favorite site and may why your favorite?
I like large shaded and private sites.
Thanks in advance!

Why personal info required
I wanted to update my profile because I no longer own a PUP but now have a trailer. I wanted to up that part of my profile and it will not allow me because now it is required to have complete address. Why is this?

RE: small electric griddle?
I have the Cuisinart like Big Katuna describes. Bought at Costco. Nice thing about this one is the grill surfaces detach and it makes a real easy clean up. Washing them in the small TT sink is pretty easy. I have another George Foreman grill w/ a round top cover. So it cooks only from one side (only bottom surface is heated. It's bigger and more combersome and more difficult to wash. But when we've got the table outside, it's kinda nice to cook and sit outside with it.
I looked at the Cuisinart. Although it looks verstile it seems a little heavy and cumbersome for a 24 ft camper. I do like it, maybe as a home griddle.
I do perfer to cook outside to limit the cooking smell in camper.
Great suggestion on the Cuisnart, thanks!

camping reciep app
Are there any Android apps out there for camping recipes? I enjoy cooking over campfire and interested in recipes focused on those. I would also go with a app that just focuses on camping recipes in general.

RE: Vent Fan Questions
Well I went got a Fantastic Fan. I have a couple of questions.
Does it look like I removed enough of the caulk? There is just a very small layer of caulk left and I can not remove it even with amy thumbnail.
It came with a foam gasket to be used instead of putty tape as the old one did. Is this OK?
Instructions says place gasket on vent, screw down with supplied screws (old did not have screws) then seal the flange with Dicor sealant and seal screw head with dicor.
Is this going to provide a leak free seal or do the ones that have done this did it a different way?

I believe I am going to like this a lot when I get the install finished.

RE: Vent Fan Questions
Take the time to install an automatic Fantastic vent fan with the rain sensor in your living area. On a 1 to 5 beer install rating it was a 2.... took me about two hours. Hardest part was removing the three pounds of caulking from factory.....
With other people saying go with the Fantastic Vent Fan and compairing the price difference of it and the Vortex I think I want to go with the Fantastic Fan.
My problem is I am afraid I will punturcure the rubber roof removing caulking. Without the concerns of damaging the rubber roof removing the caulking I feel it would be a sinch in replaceing the vent for a Fantastic Fan.
I dont think I will go with the automatic Fantastic just the 3 speed and reverse.

Vent Fan Questions
I have two roof vents. One in bathroom with a fan and one in living area with no fan. I have thought of putting a fan in the living room roof vent.
In searching I came accross the Vortex II Vent Fan Upgrade. In looking deeper into the Vortex I found out the Vortex I is one speed and cheaper than the Vortex II.
In any case I am now thinking of repalcing the vent fan in the bathroom with the one speed Vortex I and putting a 3 speed Vortex II in living area.
Has anyone put a fan in the roof vent in the living area? My thinking is with one in living area when the days are not quite warm enough for the AC I could open windows and run the vent fan in living area to pull air in camper.
Vortex II Vent Fan Upgrade
Thaks in advance!
