Does Marwayne ever camp in his RPOD or does he just stay home and dream up cool mods??

I purchased two 50 light LED strings of yellow small globe lights (120v plug) for about $12 each at Target. I put a string inside my Dome when doing a long stay or tie two together and string them across camp site if no Dome. ... Low watt .. Leave on 24x7. Great when walking dogs in dark to ID home base. ------------- Bill & Bev 13 yr old dachshund 'Elsa' 2010 RP-176T (tent & slide-out) 2011 Toyota Tundra 2WD TV |
