Hello fellow Campers,
Well don’t know how your February went but
I had a Wow of a month. Went down to Daytona
and stayed with friends, weather was not
the best but anything looked better that
what I was getting back home in Illinois.
Went to my first NASCAR race in Daytona and
that was a wow. Parked our camper on the
infield of the Daytona 500 track and what
great party people to be around. You really
have not done a good tailgate party till
you party with NASCAR people. To all the
people we had food and drinks with, thank
you, we had a great time.
I said it was a wow of a month…then went
to Palm Spring California for a week to an
RV Parts show, the weather was nothing but
blue skies, sunshine and 85 degrees. New
product out with Pullrite is their 15K
Superglide hitch. It will snap in to any standard rail
that you all ready have in your bed, Reese,
RBW etc.
Here is some info on it...
Word to the wise, here is something that will give you a belly laugh out of your chair and I it don’t recommend doing it but it is a hoot. My friend in Florida was putting in a wireless dog fence. So I kinda wonder what the dog felt when he walks through the fence. Not a good idea….but any way I put the dog collar in my hand and walked through the flagged area not to pass through. The collar starts making this little beeping noise letting you know you are coming in an area not to pass. One beep……..your getting close…..the second beep beep….turn around…..the third beep…beep….beep…..I told you not to cross….then BANG #@#$#$#@ THIS THING SHOT A ELECTRIC SHOCK UP MY ARM THAT DROPS ME TO MY KNEEEEEEESSSS.
It was like grabbing the end of a spark plug of a lawn mower while it was running…….holly guacamole that bites.
I must say we laugh till we cried. Never
do that again but it was funny. Here's a
funny video on dog bark collars…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAXTQW94Gig
Got another item sent to me looks pretty good on what other ideas you can use coffee filers for.
COFFEE FILTERS
Coffee filters .... Who knew! And you can buy 1,000 at the Dollar Tree for almost nothing even the large ones.
1. Cover bowls or dishes when cooking in the microwave. Coffee filters make excellent covers.
2. Clean windows, mirrors, and chrome... Coffee filters are lint-free so they'll leave windows sparkling.
3. Protect China by separating your good dishes with a coffee filter between each dish.
4. Filter broken cork from wine. If you break the cork when opening a wine bottle, filter the wine through a coffee filter.
5. Protect a cast-iron skillet. Place a coffee filter in the skillet to absorb moisture and prevent rust.
6. Apply shoe polish. Ball up a lint-free coffee filter.
7. Recycle frying oil. After frying, strain oil through a sieve lined with a coffee filter.
8. Weigh chopped foods. Place chopped ingredients in a coffee filter on a kitchen scale.
9. Hold tacos. Coffee filters make convenient wrappers for messy foods.
10. Stop the soil from leaking out of a plant pot. Line a plant pot with a coffee filter to prevent the soil from going through&nb sp; the drainage holes.
11. Prevent a Popsicle from dripping. Poke one or two holes as needed in a coffee filter.
12. Do you think we used expensive strips to wax eyebrows? Use strips of coffee filters..
13. Put a few in a plate and put your fried bacon, French fries, chicken fingers, etc on them. It soaks out all the grease.
14. Keep in the bathroom. They make great "razor nick fixers."
15. As a sewing backing. Use a filter as an easy-to-tear backing for embroidering or appliquéing soft fabrics.
16. Put baking soda into a coffee filter and insert into shoes or a closet to absorb or prevent odors.
17. Use them to strain soup stock and to tie fresh herbs in to put in soups and stews.
18. Use a coffee filter to prevent spilling when you add fluids to your car.
19. Use them as a spoon rest while cooking and clean up small counter spills.
20. Can use to hold dry ingredients when baking or when cutting a piece of fruit or veggies.. Saves on having extra bowls to wash.
21. Use them to wrap Christmas ornaments for storage.
22. Use them to remove fingernail polish when out of cotton balls.
23. Use them to sprout seeds. Simply dampen the coffee filter, place seeds inside, fold it and place it into a plastic baggie until they sprout.
24. Use coffee filters as blotting paper for pressed flowers. Place the flowers between two coffee filters and put the coffee filters in phone book..
25. Use as a disposable "snack bowl" for popcorn, chips, etc.
Happy
Camping,
