Topic: Propane Grill Posted: 08 Apr 2019 at 11:14am |
Speaking for myself, I scrupulously returned the theme of each post back to the propane use while camping, the benefits of using your 20 lb. propane tank to fill 1 lb. bottles for use on Coleman stoves, and the availability of propane in the Carson River Valley, not to mention, nice campgrounds at which one could use his economically purchased propane.
Thread drift, there was no thread drift for the thread drift police to bust.

Dayton is a wonderful place in the shadow of the Sierra Nevada and only an hour or so from wonderful high Sierra camping, May to early Oct. that is.
The gutter? How so? We are proud of our brothels [notwithstanding the off topic police]. They make a real financial contribution to the community and help keep our taxes low. The girls even march in the Nevada Day Parade in Carson City.
So, pack your bags and come on out. We are just getting into really nice weather and the mustangs are getting spunky as the mares are driving the stallions wild with their coquettish tail swishing. In another few weeks the snow will be melted enough that the high mountain campgrounds are going to start to open and the campsites are just the right size for a Pod. You can cook with propane from Mound House and/or have a nice fire in a fire ring.

Fred, Dayton does sound like my kind of town! Forgive me and let me pick myself up out of the gutter for straying off topic.
Though is you ask any of my children they would most likely say Dad does like to wonder about!

We are getting a little off topic, but one of my friends has a neighbor who works at the Bunny Ranch as a grounds keeper and he says they don't use propane for cook outs, only the best quality charcoal.
As for Dayton, sadly all the brothels for Lyon County are located in Mound House, just to the west of us. It's closer to the California customers, so we don't have to deal with the traffic. That's why we only need 2 stoplights. We did have a ballot measure brought by some east coast do-gooders to close the brothels down. It lost by over 75%. Mound House shares a zip code with Dayton.
And there are two places to buy propane in Mound House, not counting the big propane distribution facility that only sells wholesale. Now we're back on topic.

Come on, Dave, we have 3 dollar stores in Dayton and 4 casinos for a little over 8,000 people. Well, really 5 if you count the one on the far eastern edge of Dayton, right where nowhere begins. But we are not really a town, rather a "designated census zone." |
But tell me do you have a brothel like respectable people I hear out there have? I know I'm bad!

The winter population of Hatteras is about 500 ppl. Plenty of summer visitors, but when they're here they're stuck too, so the RV park which will fill propane cylinders has a captive audience. Not sure what folks did down here before Amazon, but unfortunately you can't buy propane from them |
True offgrid, I know about island living since many moons ago part of my youth was spent growing up on the island of Chincoteague, Virginia. When a trip to a real "town" was about 40 minutes away to Pocomock City or over an hour away to the really BIG city of Salisbury, Maryland where they had a Monkey Wards! (Montgomery Wards to those young folks who don't know). And there was no Amazon then but we did get daily mail delivery unless the draw bridge got stuck open which it was known to do every now and then.

I don't live in a big town but there is at least four places I can get my tanks filled. One of them has special's come summer season once a month where you can fill for $5! Another place will fill my tanks for all of $8 so needless to say I avoid cylinder exchanges.
