It was a no trains week and weekend for me. I picked up my new camper, and I was supposed to go camping, fishing, and atv riding at my Daughter's Elk Camp this week, but my new camper has issues. The fridge don't work on 12V. The Lithium converter/charger did not show up. I couldn't get an appointment at the DMV to register the camper, and my Daughter's family came down with Covid19.

So, I found out that the RV manufacturer didn't have the fridge 12V wiring drawn up in their plans so nobody got their fridges wired to the 12v, only 120, and these are offroad campers!

The lithium charger converter got lost in a hurricane between Florida and Illinois somewhere.

I ended up standing in a line from 7:15am till 9:00am to get into the DMV this morning, then the number system computer broke down. By 10:00am I got my camper registered, but only for 2 months then I gotta do it again! When I walked out of the DMV, there were still people standing in line that showed up at 7:30am. DMV opened at 8, but by the time I arrived, the line already went around the side of the building and all the way the alley behind.

And, my Daughter had waited so many years to draw an Elk Tag, and she finally got one in a prime area off the Snake River, so she packed up her household and went hunting anyways, sick with Covid and told to quarantine.

DMV Arrival 45 minutes before opening, the line was already out front, and around the side of the building:

And by the time I got to the end of the line it was already wrapped down the alley in back:

Gotta love the DMV.

The fridge in my trailer runs off propane when not plugged in to 120. Yours should too.

Mine is 12v/120v only. It's what all the new rv's are using these days for some reason.
