The adventure was getting the propane and meeting a VW nut.  Last time I tried to get propane was in an extremely crowded KOA in central Maryland on a Labor Day weekend and was actually more of an adventure since three guys among them spilled a bunch and never did figure out how to fill the tank.  They scared the bejesus out of me.  Today was much better, as far as I'm concerned.  Boring is fine.   Stephen

So where's the adventure?  People who read and follow instructions often lead a boring life, or so some would say. ;-)
