RE: Surge Protector Scorched
To answer the kind people who asked which one? It's a Surge Guard. Pictured here: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Technology-Research-30-Amp-Entry-Level-Portable-Surge-Protector-44260/310566342 Glad it did its job, I guess I'll find out if it has a warranty! Thanks everybody.
On edit: That's not quite it, mine has 3 lights. Same company though.
Oh, and I was surfing for RV Parks in NE recently and did see one that said "no autoformers" but I don't remember which one it was and it was too resort-like so we aren't staying there anyway. But they do exist.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Hi from Vegas everyone! Have been lurking as always. We're enjoying winter down here and I'm so thankful I got to do some traveling. Took the rig to Texas for a model show and a client job, took it down to Hesperia CA for my birthday. Hoping to do a cross-country this summer (hate summer travel, but the Nationals are in Omaha in mid-July). Love to all of you FOOFs

Surge Protector Scorched
Hi folks - hope this is the right forum for this?
I have a 30A surge protector. This weekend while it was in use the power company (not the campground) did a power failure. I started hearing arcing from the box and beeping from the rig so I went to turn everything off - but the cheap s*** Regional Park didn't have circuit breakers. When the power came back on and I left the next day, I found that one of the posts on my surge protector is all scorched looking.
Do I need to replace it? Or do I just sand off the scorching?
BTW,it did its job and none of the rig was damaged.

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
I met Richard on this thread, like a lot of us. It was such a joy getting to know him, both here and in person in Albuquerque and at the occasional Old Fella Rally. He was so kind to my big, floppy, goofy Irish Setter Bortan and my Golden, Amroth. He did good things. He was fun. He and Sue were inspiring. He'll be greatly missed. If we live on in our friends' memories I know he'll always be a bright spot in mine. If we live on, on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge, I know he had a very happy Arrival and is safe in our Father's loving arms. Bon Voyage, Richard!

Dale we are so sorry for your loss and wish you all the best (and no stress!) while you cope with the estate.
We're also so sorry to hear Richard is in hospice. It comes to us all eventually, but it's still a blow. We've all had such good times. I wish him well as he heads over the Bridge.

Hope all are doing well and that Richard is doing reasonably OK? Has it really been 16 years? Amazing!!! Love to all of you - and let's "hook up" if you're ever in Vegas! (In then nicest possible way, of course.)

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Well we're doing OK here in Las Vegas. At last the heat has broken - at night anyway. Took the dogs for our desert run yesterday at 0400 and it was down in the 70s. 2 hours later it was over 90, but can't complain. Planning a trip to Chama NM soon. Can't wait! (Puppy's first big trip)

Kayenta AZ Burger King - Code Talkers Still There?
Is the Navajo Code Talkers exhibit still on display at the Kayenta AZ Burger King? Have any of you passed through there recently?
It was privately owned and not part of the larger collection in Gallup, and I'm hoping it's still there.

RE: Stone Mountain campground
I stayed there in 2020. Heed the info about the flat/wide sites for big rigs. The loop I stayed on was rather steep and needed a LOT of leveling. On the other hand, the lakeside sites were great. The sites are also well-separated so you're not right on top of your neighbors. Bring a sense of humor, good levelers and excellent chocks!

RE: A very old stray {The Old Fella Story}
Hello everyone, just saying hi from Las Vegas. If any of you ever come through be sure to let me know. We have a new puppy named Beren who's keeping our older girl Nimrodel busy. I hope Richard is doing OK. I know he's in all our prayers.
