Good Morning Porch Folks

Hope all have a nice day.

 

At least you won something you have a use for!
Usually if I win something, I have no use for it, or it's not something I really want or need.
Congrats on the win!

 

I switched from beef to bison. Just a thought.

 

We like it very much.
Well made, quality shows.

 

Looking for something that would fit a van... double side doors and back... I'm surprised I haven't found anything built specifically for them. I've found a lot of awnings and canopies, and some I can see using, but nothing built to fit the doors and keep the weather out on a van with double doors. And I'm surprised there has been nothing with a strip of magnet in it to seal against the top, across the length of the material.

 

I think this is different.
A room, not an extension of the vehicle space. The 'inside' door unzips for access to the vehicle. We can get into the cap through the WinDoor.
But, the room is said not to be for sleeping. Did the lawyers make that up?
The zippers do not fully close like a tent.
I would consider sleeping in it in dry conditions. Or, after I see how it handles rain. We sleep in the truck, or a tent, usually.
This eliminated bringing the canopy. And it has bugscreens the canopy does not have.

 

I will add.
In rain ... water will be running between the vehicle and the 'room'. How much gets in the room? The fabric is touching the vehicle. I guess a lot. I will report back after a rain when using it.

 

To the masses at Porchetonia
I turned 60 last August so I belong here in the >60 thread. I am kind of retired and because so I introduced a new member into the house hold. Her name is Sophia but Sophie for short. As a female she is quite unabashed about passing gas about the premises. We will get along just fine. I drove up to Southern Maine and picked her up from there. She is now a Virginian.

 

Timber ridge farms?

 

Yes Timber ridge farms and I am surprised that you knew of them. You must be close enough to them to know of them. Saco, Maine.

 

Evening all:
Nice looking dog you got there!

 

SunJoe Dethatcher and Triton Pool Robot have their new home. I may be done, but I am not finished for sure....






I spared you the prior mess....

 

Finding the right diet can help with that. Maybe your vet could give you some pointers.

 

My GMRS has scan functions (NOAA weather is good when remote camping!) I had looked at adding 2M and 70cm band radio, but too many options to decide what to get. Well, this resolves that question.

Finally got the Anytime Camera Installed. I went crazy, as I was looking at it, but I couldn't find it. I spent a day wandering all over the shop, not to be found.
So two months later, I bit the bullet and ordered another one.

So my son was working on something, happened to look in one of the electrical connector boxes (I have three totes of electrical stuff), and asked, "hey, is that the camera you were looking for?" Great, now I have two kits.

So I finally got the wiring done, correct crimpers, yadda. Got everything, and nothing worked! What the heck? After basic troubleshooting, the relay was OK. The Ground was grounded, but no image. Not front nor rear. Hmm, I swapped out the harness with the RCA jacks with my other one. It worked! I have a very early 2021; camera cut off was 2020+ So I suspect that was my problem.

I could make another camera holder, but it works fine.









Much Better:
