Â* The camper has a built-in fridge/freezer unit , runs on either 110V
AC or propane . It's running on gas right now , as a test to make sure
all is OK . Been running on 'lectric for several days with no problems .
Hey , we even have a shower ! It's all of 2 feet square , but it'll do
the job . We lived in this thing for a couple of years up here , until
we had enough money to build the first phase of the house . When we
first bought it , we parked it up here so we'd have a place to stay any
time we wanted . It also went to where my wife was teaching for 2 years
while gas prices were so high . She'd come home on weekends , sometimes
I'd surprise her midweek ...
