    You made me laugh about the snow in Omaha. OH BOY did we get snow. I have 9 to 10 inches. For a forcast that said 1-2 last night to 10 inches the next day, wish I could do my job like that and not get fired. Glad to see you doing things for your self and spending time with the family. My dad was OTR and he was so tired when he came home that he didn't want to do anything and with his health issues when we were teenagers he couldn't do the thing you do with your kids. Keep doing what you are doing and we will be here for you.

    The tramper looks really good 👍 the camera shots that you get are really nice 😊 the lake stories are really sad 😞 Your supper looked really good and tasty 😋 You have really made the camper nice and cozy, plus we agree that using propane is a lot safer and easy to carry for sites w/out electric and water. 😊👍😁👋🦮🐕‍🦺🥶🥶❄️🥶

    Many will question you about your decision to take a break from 🚛. You know you better than anyone else. EXCEPT SARAH. Taking a break and do. Less stressed. Many Americans are committing suicide. Young and old trying to do what's best for others or thinking what someone might think . So in the end they give up ⚰️🪦. Keep doing you and your family and when it's time you'll know it. Enjoy your children. Soon like other children they'll be gone. Doing what you and Mrs Sarah have taught them. B SAFE Mr SCHIMDT 🚚💨💨💨💨

    Way back in a time long ago, a friend and I and our wives used to motorcycle camp with our old Shovlhead HDs. We both built our own trailers for the bikes. Before a trip, we would get together and decide what to load in the trailers. That way we had a ton of stuff and no duplicates. When we would set up camp if possible we would get two picnic tables and put them together. We had a cannon to cover the tables in case of rain. We each brought a Coleman stove giving us 4 burners for cooking. Breakfast would allow us to have two frying pans and a coffee pot and one pot for grits. I know, yall don't eat grits in your part of the country. We had a setup like no other. Lots of room for clothes, food, two coolers, air mattress's lanterns. You name it, we had it. Some good old days back then. I am 70 years old now and those camping days are gone. Savor the time Kurt. At your age you have a long way to go.

    I built a custom trailer for camping. Gas stove in a drawer, 30 gallon water tank, little air compressor for the portable shower, foldout toilet seat storage for the tents/camping gear and clothes and coolers etc. Even have a spot for my atv! Even went black diamond cut covers and matching rims like my truck. Looks like a big box and an atv on a trailer.

    I am glad you have the carbon monoxide warning. I know Buddy heaters are supposed to be safe indoors but it it flames it makes gas. The camper is a great way to get some time alone and in peace, when you learn how. I used to love throwing a sleeping bag and some chow, getting on a good horse and going to the hills. So much peace. Enjoy and havagudun Kurt.

Young guy, healthy and then....goes under...and gone. How does that fn happen? I don't know any other details. I saved one person from drowning years later, and then a family member had a water related accident and died a couple weeks later. I would have saved them all if I had been there.

    Have you considered a Webasto-style diesel heater? Every truck that I've had with one would keep the sleeper warm/hot enough to bake a turkey overnight and it only uses about a gallon of diesel in 12 hours. There are foreign-made replicas available on Amazon.

    @@aaronpatterson2369: Yep, an actual Webasto runs about $1200. The foreign-made knockoffs are less than $200. For a big truck that's going to idle all night and use 8-10 gallons of diesel, at close to 4 bucks per gallon, you get your money back on a real Webasto pretty quickly. For a camper that won't see constant use, I'd be tempted to go with the knockoff. In either case, it's a good idea to install a top quality CO2 detector.

    Kurt what exactly is not functioning on the furnace ? To start with make sure you have 10.5-13.5vdc and make sure you have 50% propane or more in the tank Also check igniter is clean and propane orphis and shield around it is clear and clean of spiders and such because propane attracts them if these don’t work I will give you some other things to try

    Hey Kurt, I watch a fellow up in New Brunswick, " Slim Potatohead". Screwy handle, but avid winter camper. He reasoned through a variety of small camper heaters, issues with electrical demand, condensation, fuel consumption, safety, convenience, fresh air supply, output. Dickenson are much used in marine applications, mostly stainless construction. Not cheap, but very effective. Slim is also a Dork in his way, and he went out of his budget comfort zone making the decision to purchase a Dickenson. @$1500, almost 3 times your camper cost. The chimney retrieves combustion air as well as exhausts gasses, (closed vent) kzread.info/dash/bejne/nJts1MyIgbvcfbg.html. If this link does not work, this is the Video title that should find Slim's review. 3 Improvements, Now the RESULTS! Winter Camping in an RV Part 5 He has install vids as well. I looked up Dork for meaning. Noun. A quirky, silly and/or stupid socially inept person, or one who is out of touch with contemporary trends. Often confused with nerd and geek, but does not imply the same level of intelligence. Been a daily viewer since around 8,000 subs. 77 year old driver out of Montana years ago. Love God.
