    Trailers: Tips for Backing Up, Driving, Maintaining?

    I think you'd prefer the camera mounted up high on your van so you can see the trailer. Batteries can fail at the worst time.

    Trailers: Tips for Backing Up, Driving, Maintaining?

    Hello all, it's been a long time since my last visit. The smaller the trailer, the harder to reverse. There are rules in the RV world that apply here - repack bearings every 3,000 miles, trailer tires have a lifespan of 5-6 years and may never show any signs of deterioration. Replace with...

    And what did you eat beforehand to fuel your nightmare? Time to revise the diet?

    Thanks Glenn!

    I'll add my appreciation to the others, Glenn, and thank you for the email getting me to return here. I admit to not reading about the nuances of this software, I was wondering if there is a way to tag another member. In other forums @Glenn MacGrady would notify that member of being mentioned...

    Got a case of gunnel rot.

    Hello all, Been a little too busy to stop by. It's wonderful to see this site blossom the way it did. I believe Willis would be very happy with the results. Robin, et al, you did good! Would anyone know of a canoe repair shop within a reasonable drive from North New Jersey? Most of the...

    We are back

    Well! It is good to see all of the smiling faces again, at least I imagine they're smiling while I lurk about. Accessing this site while working doesn't leave time to participate though the desire is there. I hope to develop an alternate retirement program to allow more time to participate and...

    Tie Down “Helpers” - Just Say NO!

    Stop at your local sign shop and make some placards, "Back soon, went to town to restock ammo." Be sure to let the rangers in on your 'joke'.

    Rethinking my ditch kit....

    oldie-moldy, I find it helps to store my strikeanywheres & stormproofs in a closed container with ordinary uncooked rice added to absorb moisture in the off season. Warm the rice in the oven first if it is humid. The downside is having to reload your match kits before each excursion/season but...

    For the love of strippers

    I was reading this post over lunch when a colleague pops in, reading over my shoulder. He seemed to read the last sentence first and started with, "Let me tell you about the stripper I loved." The conversation was populated with 'a thing of beauty', 'fantastic lines', 'moved with grace', and how...

    A Fresh Start

    The king is dead, long live the king! Kudos to you, Robin, and thanks for all that you did. If you need help with things, I'd be happy to be a supporter. Tom (now back to lurking)

    Best Wishes

    Hello all, Most of my neighborhood had power restored Monday (11/5) evening, though it may be temporary with the nor'easter due in later today. I'm thankful for the opportunity to make a few repairs, stock up on water, and warm the house. I'm not sure how much longer we could've held out with...

    Best Wishes

    Happy Halloween all, North New Jersey (Greenwood Lake area) checking in. If you were to believe the talking heads, we were to expect much worse. Downed trees and power outages - inconveniences to say the least but, hey, we're campers. A few homes with trees leaning on them, nothing too...

    Some protection?

    I, too, like my sleep as uninterrupted as possible. The buzzer is described as "ear piercing to animals", what exactly does that mean? The only ear piercing I'd want would be an ear lobe, not my ear drum. I doubt I would have this in my kit. Possibilities may be a base camp while I'd be off on...

    Some protection?

    Just became aware of this product and it seems like it may be a solution for protecting your camp/food barrel just short of an electric fence. http://thepredatorpreventer.com/how_it_works.php Any thoughts and/or personal experience from any of you?

    What are you paddling?

    Re: What are you paddling? Scott The Vermont Canoe and Kayak Company arose from the remnants of Confluence's acquiring Mad River Canoe and moving operations south, leaving quite a bit of talent (and maybe a few molds) behind in Vermont. Unfortunately, Irene made quite a mess of things and I'm...

    What are you paddling?

    Re: What are you paddling? Mostly tandem but it solos well, I'm very happy with a kevlar Vermont Encore in most every environment except those scratchy-low-water-unkind-to-gelcoat times of year. For those I just picked up a royalex Bell Chestnut Prospector but the water is a little too hard to...
