    technically we are not “full timing” by the way they define it. We keep moving spots. We depart and take a few trips to help reset the clock. We do our best to stay within the rules. We also have the option to make separate reservations as I’m retired and Pam is still in.

    Cherry Hill is the nicest civilian camp here.

    To stay at belvoir you need to be active duty, guard, reserve military. Retired or I think, a veteran with VA card. Due to the increase in the threat conditions, they don’t take in civilian campers without some sort of military sponsorship. I.E.: your son or daughter is serving in the area.

    The other decent military campground is at Fort Meade.

    George – thanks for the kind words on my shoveling. My body is sore but my spot is clear

    George, front, back, AND rear dumps (macerator)!

    Good idea, Jon, but I do still struggle with the short range remote. I think I’ll ask Frank to upgrade though!

    Walt,

    We’re in a word maze.

    Round light upper left top of door standing outside….entry light,door opens light on

    Light left of door key ….padio light.. BUT, Marathon would use this light 2 ways.

    Opening door on..off…

    2ad way… stays on if switched inside.

    I’ll find LED number for padio light and get back to you.

    Karl,

    I am still working this. Given the amount of time Jon, You and I have spent on this I am continueing to request that we get something in writing from Prevost that we can post here and Jon or Tom can save somewhere that an owner needing to replace a CAC can print and bring into the service center to avoid going thru what I and many others did. I have been told that I should have someething to Post very soon.

    You done got tickets then? Rarer than hens teeth. Entered their ticket lottery a couple of years ago but heard nothing. I presume their email saying I’d won got lost somewhere. 🙂

    Don’t disagree about Jordan though. However, Bubba might be worth a cheeky bet and you’ll get some good odds on Tiger!

    Dorel, I would really consider leaving Texas for another time. Destin, Fl staying at Camp Gulf on the beach is way cool. FRQ RV in Big Easy hands down. Tom Sawyer Memphis. Geo.

    One thing that was evident to me was the lack of trucks typically driven by professionals. Look at the number of rental trucks. Look at the trucks that probably did not require a CDL. Look at the camping trailer. I don’t know about other PC members, but I’ll literally stop before I even go under a bridge marked 13’6″.even though I know I am 12’10”. All it takes is a repaving without changing the signage to create a problem.

    Technology has probably got a way of dealing with this issue but I will defer to Will as to its viability.

    The height of traffic coming at the bridge can be measured prior to the bridge and any vehicle over a certain height can get red lights, strobes or even a gate blocking their path. If I was emperor of NC however I would not do that because this seems a relatively safe way of weeding out incompetent drivers.

    BTW, a good friend of mine handled the responsibilities Will did in NC for the city of Jamestown, NY. He marked all bridges as being 12″ less clearance than actual. The reason he did that was while the city did a decent job of snow plowing, with over 200″ a year of snowfall on average he was compensating for unplanned snow buildup. Even with that precaution I watched a flat bed truck carrying a very large construction site fork truck hit the RR bridge near our factory, knocking the mast from the fork truck, knocking the fork truck from the truck bed, and damaging the roll back bed of the truck.
