Yessssss!!! I learned back porting propane through the accessory quick-connect was possible, thanks to TOWB. It took several trips to Ace, Tractor Supply, the other Ace, back to Tractor Supply, ordering from Amazon and then discovering the fitting I needed still attached to an old regulator that had blown out that I had removed and never threw away. We have propane! Just in the nick of time (getting into low 30s in a couple days and the water heater manages lukewarm on electric when it\u2019s that cold out). Plus, we were running power on a long 110v extension cord, which wouldn’t handle the power draw well. I\u2019m so proud of myself \ud83d\ude00 Meanwhile, a replacement part for the wiped out panel should be on its way so we can go back to the onboard propane system eventually. I also need to have a hose custom made, but the RV place told me where to have that done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I felt self-conscious about the naked mannequin, so put some clothes on her more appropriate for the cooler weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than drag the remaining yard debris to the street, we started having joint bonfires with the neighbors to burn the remaining. Things we learned: bamboo explodes and palm tree logs don’t burn very well. <\/p>\n\n\n
