That is why he wanted to get those..........so he could see how much "repeated rinsing" he had to do till he was satisfied the water was "clear". Rosie, I think this is a job for your "other half"..............or am I missing something here are you are a solo RVer?

My other half will climb on a roof...fell a tree ( although those tend to land on our fences) bravely kill a copperhead (although when we were dating, a fish flopped out of the aquarium and I swear he leapt up on a chair) BUT I suspect EVEN with those shoulder high gloves I bought him.....it mstpy be me and him shoulder to shoulder with this one....

We will be the two folks in hazmat gear..goggles and helmets.. in 1000 degree heat...fighting with each at the dump station. ...just ignore us. ..

That is true. We've helped a lot of others and fortunately haven't needed any help yet. Things mostly go very smoothly.

Running out to check out a bumper-pull trailer today. We're kind of all over the board on what we want. One of them will jump out at us!

Edited to add: Does anyone have an opinion (good or bad) about Keystone Hideout trailer? That's what we're considering (today).

Much smaller than your rig, Anna. But way bigger than we are used to. I think it is a 23' trailer but the overall length (including tongue) may be closer to 28'. My main 'wants' are a walk around bed, a couch, a slide, and a decent kitchen. This seems to have them all, so we shall see.

This is our 3rd trailer, it is 27 feet, with a queen slide, double windows so that they don't fog up when it is cold.

On the way to Jasper National Park in AB.

The bathroom, one of the reasons we bought this trailer.

On the right of the sink is a large closet with double mirrored doors, and 2 large drawers.

The living space., the TV has only been tested at home and it worked just fine, we usually dry camp. It does have AC.

We like camping in parks with lots of trees.

Whistlers campground in Jasper, it was awesome there, dozens of elk roaming all over the campground.

Tunnel Mountain in Banff, lots of wildlife, elk, deer, we saw a coyote, ground squirrels.

Ours is a bumper pull and we love it. Margaret, I love that yours has a shower with a door. We just have a very small tub with a shower curtain. It's more difficult to manage in the small space, and we usually end up with water on the floor. I'd love a shower door! The rest of yours looks pretty much like ours.

I'm not familiar with the Hideout ones, but I took a look and they look nice. Since you're used to roughing it, you will love whatever you buy that is a step up!

Rosie, one extra I'd recommend is that you buy the things that make the hangers stay on the rods in the closet. We have a large bathroom closet, but every time we arrived at the RV parks, the clothes were all in a jumbled pile.

My clothes stay on the hangars...........so far. :>) I've not really had a problem with anything moving around. Anyway, not that I noticed. I think I have pix of all the storage areas. When our son and DIL were going to take it to Wyoming last year, I went and took pix of all the cupboards and then made a list of what I had in them so she didn't have to look for everything. I don't think she even looked at my list. Rolling on the floor laughing I didn't go back to the beginning of this..........I hope I haven't posted these.

There are storage cupboards in the "garage", but I don't have pix of them.

Our rod is designed so that the hangers are hooked on and cannot fall off.
