Left yesterday and headed to Oklahoma to the Windstar Casino. We had to stop at Camping World before we went there. We are looking for a light weight outside patio mat to match the new RV. We saw some that matched but Sherri wanted one she had seen that has a swirl in the design. We also wanted to pick up a toy for Kris. He wanted a RV and truck like Maw Maw's. Sherri said they had one like that there and sure enough we located it. I also was looking at the small Honda generators they have there. We may do some "Boondocking" and a small generator like that would be good for charging the batteries.
Speaking of "Boondocking" I have been reading Howard and Linda's journal about staying in the free BLM land in Arizona and seeing how pretty the settings are and said to myself that I would like to give that a try. I am not one to spend gazillion $$$ on generators, solar panels and the like just to spend a week or two on BLM land. It would take a lot of that type of camping to pay for that additional cost. I am thinking if I stay like we use to at the State Parks all I would need is my battery power. We stayed for two and three days on just our battery back in those days and never had a problem. Once I had to hook up the truck to the RV and charge the battery after we left the outside lights on all night and day...not good. I was thinking that the small generator, like the one at Camping World would be all I need to run a TV and Computer and recharge our batteries. After all if I am out in a drop dead gorgeous spot in the middle of no where why would I want to be watching TV.
OK I will put this question on the Forum and see what I can find out. Sherri is meeting Becky here today and they are headed out to look for some things for Becky's trailer. Sherri bought a collapsible shelf that she puts here towels and wash clothes on. She has it in the bedroom and it is light weight...folds down...and holds all the towels and wash clothes very neatly. They will be on a mission to find one for Becky today...Rodney and I will be on a mission to set here and talk bout things that we need to get done but will not do until later.
That is about it for today. I have to get over to the Forum and post my question about my idea. I will return to post more Somewhere in Time.

I have been thinking about the same thing on generators, I wonder if a Honda 2000 will run my air conditioning for those hot summer nights? Maybe we can get some answers on the forum........... Don
We're also checking into a generator. We're looking at the Honda 3000, we'll check the forum.
I bought my Honda EU2000 genny from them for $869. Free shipping and no tax out of Colorado. Got it in a few days. Cannot find it on their web site, you have to call.

Honda 2000 will not run an ac but 2 or a 3000 would
Hey Speedy;
We have two Honda 2000 gennies linked together. That's probably not the technical term, but that's what I call it. You'd be surprised how quickly the heater can draw down your batteries...the gennies are good for a recharge. Two 2000's will also power our AC...which has been needed in a state park situation. There are better values than Camping World though...let me know if you need more info. Enjoy the hunt!
I heard that Harbor Freight has a little genny for $100 that isn't too noisy, that will charge the batteries.
Some folks have used a removable5,000 BTU window unit for just the bedroom, for sleeping on the sticky nights. It will run off a lot smaller genny than the roof AC.
