Wow! On your way back? We’ll be glad to have you back. Make sure you do a stretch on the north shore of the St. Lawrence between Gaspé and Québec City - way nicer than the south shore. I’m a fan of Sandbanks PP in Eastern Ontario and the trip along the shores of Lake Superior is amazing, but...

Here’s an area where I do have some expertise - I’m actually a Hazardous Materials technician; The issue with a “traditional” vertical propane tank is that all the fittings, including the pressure relief valve are in the upper part of the tank, which is the vapour space of the tank. When...

Look what you’ve done now ... ;) You welcome!

Agreed, that would make a difference, both in insulating value and in power supply. That said, a good insulating camping mattress or RTT mattress on the bottom and a good upper later would do the same. I would not want to have too much between the mattress/pad and my body however. As for...

We use and love our 12V Electrowarmth bunk mattress heating pad. It plugs in a 12V cigarette lighter plug, is thin and comfortable, lives on our mattress year round (it’s setup in a van), is very energy efficient and because it sits under you, your covers trap the heat. Think heated seat but...

I would be interested in any info you would share - we are taking a trip to Newfoundland from Manitoba late this summer, and I’m considering travelling through Labrador before crossing and making our way around Newfoundland. Thanks in advance.

We’ll be making the trip from Manitoba, towards Québec, Labrador and Newfoundland in August, to eventually making our way to PEI and Nova Scotia in September. I’m just starting to wrap my head around the trip so I won’t be able to offer much right now, but I will most definitely keep an eye out...

Thanks for trying again - Sunday afternoon or evening won’t work for us. But we’ll keep an eye on any future meet.

We are mostly free on those dates but not on the 6th of November.

Hope things are going well!

What about a picnic area in Assiniboine Park? It’s a fantastic idea! We will likely not be there for that meetup since we’ll be on our first big road trip of the year. 2017 Ford Transit Winnipeg, Canada Feel free to follow the van build and adventures on Instagram -...
