    Spent a few days at Sherando Lake, VA. Perfect weather for seeing the leaves changing. 

    Didn't notice them previously, but saw a fellow T@b owner in a CS model leaving this morning when I was packing up.

    . . .I'm shocked that it's actually called 'Cape Disappointment'. Seems like a misnomer to me!

    Just a web-search history - - - better source than my PNW History memory.

    The cape was named on July 6, 1788, by British fur trader John Meares . . .  He mistook the mouth of the Columbia River for a bay, which his ship could not enter due to a shallow shoal. Just missing the discovery of the river . . . he named the area Cape Disappointment and Deception Bay. George Vancouver credits John Meares in his account when he saw Cape Disappointment on April 27, 1792.

    What maintenance Art, you drain the water tanks, including the Alde when you winterize, and have the fluid changed ever two years.  Seems simple to me., and worth having a nice even (non forced air) heat.

    Thanks, thought it might have been the KOA, $82-92 a night seems reasonable cost wise.  Another local destination to add to our list.  We are working our way down the NorCal coast, spent a long weekend this month at Olema Campground next to Pt, Reyes.  Didn’t think to take any photos.  Olema is a nice campground and is home of the NorCal TaB OcT@befest, which was very enjoyable.

     Olema Calif, campground circle with several TaBs parked in.  There wer more than 60 TaBs at the event, lots of space between each trailer in many areas.  Nice campground, well taken care of.

    @Denny16 No noise sounds great but when the bottom of the alde resivoir fittings break (must not be made of nylon but plastic), pipes get so croded they swell up, coolant transferes between the cooler side to the fresh water side because of bad welds in the boiler, changing the fluid that sometimes ends up in the ground, many more problems, I wish I had jbajor's T@B.

    Our 2018 TaB400 has been great, no issues with the Alde system so far, and in the UK, the Alde is the caravan heating system of choice.  I think a lot of our issues here are down to poor maintenance and the Century TF was not as good as it should have been, hence the change to Rhomar.

    Caesar Creek State Park (Ohio).  Our 320 CSS was winterized last week but when the forecast turned favorable we took advantage of it.  As scheduled the park closed down restrooms the day we arrived, but left open an additional loop it had planned to completely shutdown.

    Hocking Hills State pk, Ohio. Bought our 320s second hand late in the fall. 1rst trip to Prince William National Forest. No photos, primitive sights had trouble keeping enough power for the isotherm fridge. Second trip Hocking Hills. Not a level sight in the place. This was our best effort at putting up the walker tent. That's Sulley in the back ground.

    Sharon, it does okay. It lasts about a year then for various reasons it starts to peel at the edges. I really like it though, both the privacy and reduction in light and heat, so I put up with having to replace it. I tried the Walmart film but found that it made my windows hotter than this film, though the WM film is less expensive.
