I'm not a big tamale fan either, but I guess I haven't had the right ones yet!<br /><br />Glad the refrigerator was a cheap and easy fix. My understanding is that you should always turn the propane off when refueling. We always travel with the propane off and most of the time we're running the generator for the AC and that keeps the refrigerator running too, but if not, it doesn't cause any problems for the short drives we do.<br /><br />Love all the bird pictures.Karen and Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15284661066870109259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-90390629059639529852014-06-02T05:34:50.613-06:002014-06-02T05:34:50.613-06:00I am nervous about the propane also.

Also when traveling. About the only thing I do is turn off the fridge when I have the propane tank filled. I might start turning it off though when gassing up or traveling. Maybe the "better safe than sorry" saying is right. Most people I know keep it on all the time.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-23630972041087990282014-06-01T18:05:46.526-06:002014-06-01T18:05:46.526-06:00Sweet little baby bird...i too have a problem mess...Sweet little baby bird...i too have a problem messing with propane...i am afraid of<br />it...i don't full time yet so i don't use it...i was wondering what your quick guacamole<br />recipe is...would you share? thanks,<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />ith the propane...i am afraid of it..<br />i don't full time so i don' use it...i was wondering what your GEOCACHING WITH GRAMMY AND THE PAPILLON PRINCESShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10318355690220894430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8380348623382527060.post-57915318480545861712014-06-01T16:22:02.997-06:002014-06-01T16:22:02.997-06:00The bird photos are so nice, love the little blueb...The bird photos are so nice, love the little bluebird! <br /><br />I'm the kind of person who usually calls for help, though I'm sure in the night I'd have tried to figure something out.

And you too - I plan to be in Q-site January 2014, hope you are too.<br /><br />I travel with the propane on. I used to pull over before refueling to turn off the propane and the fridge, then fired it all up again after pulling out of the station. For some reason, the last 3 times I've gassed up, I forgot my usual procedure. So I may continue to 'forget'. Especially knowing that you have been getting away with it for years.

Once I turned it on and blew my eyelashes and brows off and singed my hair. Then, I lost the whole tank somewhere in rural Tennessee. Fortunately, someone saw it come off (could have blown up a whole town). He said it bounced around under my truck a few times and scared the bejeezus out of him. Anyway, he went back and got it--I told him to keep it for his trouble as it was about 8 miles back in the dark. I had a new one installed and to feel double safe, now, I bunny it every way I know how. My big fix was in New Mexico, though, when heater, fridge went out. I hate tinkering with electricity, but have gotten less skittish since traveling alone. Who would have thought years ago, huh?Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371157074687319596noreply@blogger.com
