RE: seattle rv parks
I live there. There are tons of really lousy RV parks here - I mean BAD. The only place I would stay at is Lake Pleasant in Bothell. It's located in a suburb of Seattle (about 20 mins away) and is very nice. It's also convenient to stores and restaurants. I would stay there if I didn't live around the corner from it.
I go there often as our son lives in the area - the KOA in Kent is remodeling and I understand it is much better
We stayed there 3 years ago and the place was a dump. Our door was just 3 or 4 feet from the next guys sewer. Couldnt park your tow vechiel there, had to scramble for a parking spot. The site was full of cig butts when we arrived

RE: Blue DEF
DEF is DEF, buy whatever has the lowest price. I do have concerns with dirty nozzles at truck stops, but many use it with no problems. Walmart most likely has the best price on their own brand.
As noted DEF is DEF is DEF. It is all the same, save yourself some money and buy the $7 stuff from Walmart.
So you are both certified chemist that have tested all brands of DEF on all counts including purity.
The effects of less pure DEF likely will not appear right away, the same as using cheap engine oil will only build sludge which leads to issues down the road.
As often as I need to add DEF I will use a brand name.
Today, cars and trucks and other applications using diesel engines sold in the United States must meet stringent U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emissions requirements. To meet these requirements, many diesel engine manufacturers use Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR), an emissions aftertreatment technology that converts nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the diesel-engine exhaust stream into nitrogen and water vapor, two natural components in the air we breathe.
Diesel exhaust fluid (also referred to as DEF or AUS 32) is injected into the diesel exhaust stream and the heat from the exhaust, the fluid, and a catalyst convert the NOx into the harmless gases.
Diesel exhaust fluid is a 32.5% solution of technically pure urea in purified water. For the SCR unit to operate properly, the DEF must meet an exacting purity standard. This standard, published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), is intended to ensure that the diesel exhaust fluid used in SCR-equipped cars and trucks provides the purity required by diesel engine manufacturers and the quality to preserve the emissions control system and the environment.
The API Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Certification Program is a voluntary program designed to certify and monitor the quality characteristics of diesel exhaust fluid intended for use in motor vehicles with diesel engines. Diesel exhaust fluid marketers that have demonstrated that their products satisfy the requirements of the most recent and applicable edition of ISO 22241, Diesel engines – NOx reduction agent AUS 32, may be licensed to display the API Diesel Exhaust Fluid Certification Mark.
API Diesel Exhaust Fluid Certification has many benefits:
Identifies for consumers diesel exhaust fluids that meet diesel engine manufacturer requirements.
Helps consumers find those fluids.
Gives consumers a choice of quality brands from which to choose.
Helps reduce Nitrogen Oxide emissions.
Provides rigorous monitoring of fluids in the marketplace.
Tests licensed fluids to ensure that they meet program requirements.
A complete list of licensees is available on our Licensee Directory.
Please download the Diesel Exhaust Fluid Program Overview for additional information and program requirements.

RE: Do we have to winterize if we use our RV during the winter?
It suck to live at an elevation where it gets into the 20's for 4 days out of 20. Some times I leave the heater on set at 50deg and sometime I just bite the bullet and winterize

RE: I've Rediscovered Butter
I have been using butter from the start since Smart Balance spread can never replace it's taste in my opinion.
I agree with you to some extent. I’ve used Smart Balance for years and found it satisfactory. However, I've recently discovered “ I Cant Believe It’s not butter”, and think it approximates butter’s taste the closest that I’ve found thus far. It’s also very easy to spread.
Taste? it is still one step away from plastic

RE: face book messenger
In Windows, I open the messenger in it's own window. When I get a video, there are a couple options to the right of it. One of those is three horizontal dots (...). If I click on that, I have the option to save the video to facebook, where I can then share it.
Thanks
