I gave in a bought a starter Kuerig coffee maker. Can't wait to try it when I'm craving just one cup of good coffee with a pie iron dessert.

DH fashioned a single-sided hammock frame from steel pipes. Never seem to have 2 cooperating trees. It looks sketchy and I won't be the first to try it, but physics prove it should work!

We just bought one as well, went camping for Easter and missed ours from home. Quick trip to Walmart and fixed the problem! Now the home one has to go back as it's not working properly anymore.... it's only 7 months old... darn.

Yes, my new gadget is a 2006 Fleetwood Sequoia high-wall PUP. Can't wait to try it. Camp Driveway is nice and all, but that's not why I bought it. I've spent the last three weeks tweaking and modifying all the bits that needed it. Once we break free of the school year, it's back to living away from the house! Definitely an upgrade of the previous PUP.

Can't wait...

The George Forman grill has been around for years but we always felt it would just be another gadget to get in the way. However, on this last snowbirding trip we bought one and really like it. I won't give up the grill, but the Forman is great for just about anything that isn't too thick. Does a really nice job on shrimp and salmon but also good for steak.

Keurigs have yet another cup size, the Vue cup (apparently the patent is expiring on the old one.) Until there is a "standard" for that, I'm just going to sit it out.

We also carry a George Forman Grill in the camper. Got it on sale at Wal Mart for $10 or $15. We also carry an electric griddle. We have only used the stove in the camper one time. We always use these or a small propane grill to cook. The only gadgets we have gotten and not had the chance to try out is a nice set of awning lights. We were going to put them up on our first trip this year but when I opened the box, 2 globes were broken. Dealer replaced them without any hassle.

We have 2 Keurigs, B70 in the S&B, B30 in the 5er.

Got tired of the choices and quality of the K-cups, so I went and bought a set of Eco-Brew reusable cups. Now I get to use any coffeee I want, and can adjust the amount to get teh flavor the way I like.

Bonus is I'm spending half as much on coffee now.
