Greasing the Grooves

Can of silicon spray on the garage seals and the slideout seals.  Direct info from the FR technicians themselves!  

When our propane ran out on our second trip due to the leak in the hose, we limited the door opening and put the freezer pack in the fridge for the last day of the trip and things were still cold.  I find our refrigerator is pretty well insulated.

 

Campfires are Not included in the dark skies, nor are flashlights for taking "the long walk" , just extra lights outside.  Not a problem for us as in forty years of tent camping we never carried even a Coleman lantern -did make for a few meals cooked by headlights though!

 

Outbound, maybe it is an Alberta thing? Or maybe the fellow at our walk through was just being extra cautious.

Might have a bit to do with it that your weather is near perfect for my tastes, at least in Summer when we get near triple digits and poor Texas STAYS there with no rain.

 

I, too, have it on my checklist in RED that the propane is off when the car moves away with the Pod. Same as when we had motorhomes. Since I have the pod on power here at home, the battery is recharged fine.    I don't know how each state checks if we have it off or on anyhow, just as some allow radar and some don't. I use to know some of those up the East coast and take it down, but in the Pod I keep in the slow lane and don't have to worry about speed!

 

You have sort of confirmed what we have always done with the frig. Turn it on(easy if on power at home, not so much if not) a couple of days before trip out and of course putting frozen food in and already cold food too. I have not had to use a "freezer pak" and just put a little circulating fan in yesterday to see what that does to the temps before I turn the frig. off.  I was out in pretty full sun my last trip, at least the Pod was, I wonder if that makes a difference. I did keep it on all 5 snowflakes and was not in it much, so cut down on the in and out.

 

One of the things the husband checks when I get back home is to see if I have remembered to turn the propane off( don't know if that is natural caution or the engineer/pilot in him) but it has rubbed off on me.

And since we camped, tent and motorcoaches, in US, I had not heard of all lights out. That is very interesting. I know quiet times, no generator times.  Does that include your campfires?
