Thanks Islandgirl; Iv'e been by Anastasia a couple of times just driving by. I'll have to go do a drive through before trying to make a reservation just as you suggested. When we bought our BH it was with fulltiming in mind. Something we could really live in for the next period of our lives...

Dave; Thanks for the site. There are some really great CG's in the Panhandle. I promise we are going to plan at least one rally in that area for this next year. I sort of thought about starting in more southern areas in the winter and working our way up as temps changed. That way we could...

Re: Florida State Chaper of the Heartland Owners Club and the Tampa RV Supershow Jan 12 -16, 2011 Folks; For those of you who are still "thinking" about the Super Show. I called show manager and the parking for the general admission area where we could boondock has increased to $15 per night...

Thanks all for posting some great info on the forum. It's my thought that we all gain when information is discussed in an open format. One little bit of information or one idea can make a difference in wheather a camping trip is good or great. Mickey

Re: Campsites we most love...a survey Randy; I liked Sun -n-Fun. It would work well for rally. Spacious sites, lots of activities for any age, ease of manuevering larger coaches, and I especially loved Yoders Restaurant. It is Amish owned and serves some REALLY great pies. I didn't realize how...

Thanks Randy for another great resource. Mickey

Re: Discussion HOG members; Start thinking about interesting places in Florida to hold rallys. Where, when, why! Think about some of our snowbird friends who aren't here in summer, and also locals who love to get out even in summer here in Florida. We would like to visit all areas, North...

Wow; Maybe I'll get to try out fireplace!!! We don't get to do that much here in Fl. We're chomping at the bit. Should I bring jackets:)

BOB AND PATTY; I agree. However it wasn't supposed to be the problem. Techs were thrashing to find problem. It ws going to be out of Dometics pocket. Then I last few minutes game changed. Lifes a.....well you know.

I took my 5er to have slide toppers installed at a facility suggested by Carefree, and mentioned to the tech that I had problem with A/C compressor running while not being turned on. He, like everyone else I talked to said it would be relay in ceiling unit. Since they were a Dometic service...

David; We have 3585 and love it, especially for open floorplan in kit and living area. I would suggest thinking twice or more before going with dinnette. Since our table is just as you come into door on left, you have to remove leaf from table to get slide to go all way in. Very close...

GUYS; I got to campground last Friday about 5 pm. Hooked up surge protector/power guard waited for it to check power. Everything checks, plug up house power.. go into unit and hear a/c compressor running, only I haven't turned it on yet. I switch on a/c and set temp, fan works and it cools...

To finish post, I'll attach pictures of gap, I forgot on first post. I added four extra bolts due to more available holes in trailair unit. And I'll paint bolt heads and washers to complete the install.

I just got finished installing my new tri glide. The proceedure went so fast I hardly had time to take pictures. The people at TrailAir were super helpful helping me select the correct unit. It came in a couple of days by UPS. Hard part was helping UPS guy get it out of truck, pretty heavy. The...

I just wanted to say thanks to fellow BH owners Fred and Tish, who helped my wife and I with propane tank problems unrelated to factory tanks. We didn't get to say goodby Sat and get contact info. It's people like Fred and Tish, who are fulltimers, and are always willing to lend a hand to...

Re: EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: NC, Mt. Airy - 10/1/2010 to 10/3/2010 I sent David a PM about tshirts. If he didn't get it please advise. Terry; just a short story. My wife and I had only been married a few short years. My grandmother called and told me she had made some fried apple...
