Yes, I'm out again on an extended travel trip, first stop somewhere familiar, next onto uncharted territory. But before leaving I needed to modify my camper stabilizers with a DIY hack. Off to pursue happiness, and a little green slime!
My apologies for the atrocious sound during driving. I was relying on new filters instead of a lavalier mic, which was a bad choice!

Had the same issue with the now short stabilizers on my now 4" lifted Chalet A-frame. My simple solution was a trip to Wal Mart. Picked up four 6" hard plastic furniture risers for a few bucks. They nest together when not in use and work perfectly on the round feet of the stabilizers. Glad to see you back out on the road.

Always wash the top of your beer cans with non stream and non lake water. 2. Only buy food containing ingrediences with less than 1 square inch. 3. View and incorporate healthy food and supplement videos.

Great video as always. That's a great fix on the stabilizers. You're such a handy guy. Good of you to share with others. Beautiful campgrounds. I definitely agree on the charge to reserve. Plus what gets me is the $7 a night for electric, doesn't matter the size of the rig, or how many ppl. They get you coming and going. Maybe salamanders. Looking forward to your next adventure.🙂👍

Hi Slim, welcome to PA! I love our state parks and campgrounds but agree with you about the rules and regs. Campgrounds with facilities cost more, but I can take the senior discount, which most of the time cancels out the $6.50 reservation fee.
@morg52
@morg52 Жыл бұрын
I travel by bicycle and the new reservation systems are a real pain. I pretty much have to call in when I get to a camping area because I can't absolutely predict that I will get there. Anything from strong head winds to road closures to flat tires and I'm off any schedule. At state parks there will usually be a twenty four hour place I can call. County parks have to be called during business hours. Here in MN, if I arrive under my own power, I generally a spot available at a state park if I meet certain times and conditions. I cycled the north shore circle route from Thunder Bay Ontario to Sault ste. Marie last june 2022. On the MN north shore section, it was Memorial Day weekend. I could have shown up at the campgrounds and been allowed to stay one night. However, the weather was really, cold, rainy and windy so people were canceling their weekend plans. The lousy weather saved my vacation!

I've had tadpoles on my pool cover years ago when I used to cover the pool for winter...water would collect on top of the cover over the winter, then frogs in the spring sooo loud at night I actually had to go out and tell them to hush sometimes, then eggs, then tadpoles, then baby frogs, and birds feasting on the tadpoles b4 frogs sprouted.. a real eco system right in my own back yard...your babies looked more like salamanders to me... thanks for the new vid... safe travels
