Post up some shots of your T@B set-up at the camp site!

We are still doing the WI state park thing.   Maybe next summer...... We want to see Mammoth Cave.  

 We are now at Lake Kegonsa State Park, near Madison.   Quiet park,  considering how close we are to the city.   Our dealer is having a Winterizing demo tomorrow.   Our fridge was stubborn last night,  but it  lite after a few hours...

Cyclonic said: I pass it along to my wife, some friends and the cat sitter so they have a good idea of where I will be at any given time.

Getting my morning fix of beautiful T@b pics (still trying to choose a colour...)  and came across Cyclonic's spreadsheet post from a while back. Love spreadsheets. And really like the idea of keeping family informed of where you are this way. Hmm, could keep it in a dropbox folder maybe and update as we travel. 

Nomad

I take a screen grab of the map with my location and message that to family. Since I boondock so much, the only thing that would work in a spreadsheet is lat/long. Plus, I'm alergic to spreadsheets :-)

Cyclonic

Yeah, I love my spreadsheets.  Sorry to here of your allergy @PXLated , not sure that is treatable.

I kept it up to date while on the trip and dropped it into Google drive along the way.  Here are some of the final screenshots:



I linked the two sheets together so I could have an actual running total of costs as I went.

Nomad

The allergy appeared when I retired :-)

Cyclonic

Well, they say allergies get worse with age.

In PXL's case, I don't think AGE, or allergies has anything to do with it, more lack of interest! May be he should invest in a satellite with a homing device!!!!!

Potato Creek State Park near North Liberty, Indiana just south of South Bend, Indiana.  

I have never in my life seen as many mosquitos in my life!  The northern part of Indisna has been slammed for weeks with thunderstorm after thunderstorm almost on a daily basis. The end result are lots of mosquitos, day and night. I got out of there with only three bites, I think. 

The Thermocell paid for itself!  After my morning shower and getting dressed, I took the Thermocell outside, turned it on, laid it on the small table next to the chairs and went back inside to finish getting ready. By the time I came outside, the mosquitos were gone. The awning was helpful to keep the valor localized so I could sit outside. 



A new help to fill the water tank. Put a small stool on the tongue tub, add a 5' clear plastic tube, open the valve and let the water flow. No more holding the jug on my knee as the water flowed into the inlet.

Very smart, Verna!  Where did you find the tubing?

Verna

@SAM, Lowe's has some precut sections of tubing on a shelf below their larger roll of tubing. I bought a 10' section, cut it in two and I have two jugs fixed up to be used with 5' on each. 

Sharon_is_SAM

Thanks.  Now we will be able to manage a larger fresh water container.  One more thing for the list.

South Bend was my home town.  Haven't been back in a long time.

Nice Tom.

Carolyn

Thursday night football at Brown County State Park in Indiana

Nomad

Carolyn - Looks like you custom decorated the exterior of your T@B - Pics please :-)

Cyclonic

You see, if you would come east of the Mississippi...





Carolyn has a very cool looking T@B.

Carolyn

Sorry for the bad photo.  I don't take too many pictures of my own trailer!

Nomad

Hippy Dippy Man :-)

marknjudy

How you do that?

Carolyn

I designed the file in Photoshop and printed it on vinyl and applied it.  You could have it done anywhere they do vinyl graphics.

marknjudy

Pretty slick!

Nomad

Mind sharing the cost less your prep?
I've only seen one other with a big rap - That one was cool also.
If for some reason you wanted to remove it, how hard is it? They do it on busses all the time so presuming it's not too hard.

Nomad

Don't let Jenn see this, she may think you're a member of the Rainbows :-)

Carolyn

I did this a few years ago and really don't even remember the cost of the vinyl. I will guess that if you hired it done it would be between $1000 and $2000 but am really not sure. A lot would depend on what the designer charged. It was very easy to remove the original T@B logo by heating it with a hair dryer and pulling it off. This wouldn't be much more difficult.

ericnliz

Carolyn, Pretty cool!

Did you print on inkjet?

JacobyO

If this is something people are looking to have done I could put together a template for and do custom designs. I am a graphic designer and have vendors that do vehicle wraps. Perhaps I should come up with a few designs and see how much it would cost to sell the designs and or the full graphics to ship and install or have installed by your local shop. If anyone is interested let me know and I will start a new thread on the subject. I can get the measurements since I have an outback sitting in my driveway

Nomad

A template might be fun to play with - Illustrator? Photoshop?
Go ahead and start a new thread - Custom Graphic Wraps - and see what the interest is - Maybe include Carolyn's pic.

Would love a better template than I've been playing with for photo mural....
