    Taylor Ham vs. Pork Roll. You really stepped in it here. What's most important is that no matter what you call it, I'm glad in Mass we have the north shore beef.

      I miss that north shore beef so bad. I struggle to have roast beef anywhere else because the north shore beef benchmark is so high

    One reason we have a separate cab from our quarters:
    * during sudden manouveurs, nothing inside the quarters can get airborne and impact our delicate sensitive craniums.
    Would our beloved Scampers consider a barrier behind the front seats?

    On your way to the coast, you should visit the Austin area. Roundrock still has the actual round rock it was named after and you can still see the ruts the wagon wheels left in the 19th century.
    Plenty of trails around Lake Georgetown, you can check out the bats in Austin, see a live band, go to 6th street, and soak up the "keep Austin weird " vibe.

      @thecumminscamper They have an adventure center with zip lines and horseback riding. If you do the horses, you can get to more secluded area's of the beach and sometimes see some different things
      They also have sandcastle building classes and tons of fishing opportunities
      It is spring break, so plenty of bars and parties...but it use to get a little rowdy...not sure if you guys are looking for anything like that.

      @@jimgriffin1560 we don’t mind when there are crowds and places are busy but we try and avoid places where people are going to get into altercations. We went to Burbon St a few weeks ago on a Saturday night and I felt like although everyone was in good spirits that things could change quickly and turn for the worst really fast. So if it’s not quite that kinda rowdy we’re happy. We’ll check out the sandcastle building classes. That sounds pretty interesting

    Awesome! 2 questions, 1. do you run the fridge on propane while running down the road and 2. having to do with the compost toilet, the black tank is for urine, is that what the hose was?

    • @thecumminscamper
      @thecumminscamper  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thanks so much! I do run the fridge on going down the road. Sometimes I will put it on DC but if its hot outside the fridge can't keep up on DC. I'd like to wire my camper so I can flip a transfer switch and have all my AC components run off my inverter. Its on my to do list. Then I would run the fridge on AC going down the road as the fridge does much better with keeping up with hot temps on AC.
      For the composting toilet the hose you see leads into our grey water tank. I have removed the black tank completely and replaced it with a 25 gallon fresh water tank which connects to our existing factory fresh water tank providing us about 67 gallons of fresh water on-board. Then when we dump our grey tank our pee goes with it so we don't have that annoying pee jug that comes with the composting toilet.

    We love the video, Eric! You have stepped up your B-roll and audio game 100% hopefully Marissa is feeling better. We noticed the audio blip when your scenes changed. Was that the problem you were having with your camera? Safe travels. P.S. did you burn your shit tickets too?

    • @thecumminscamper
      @thecumminscamper  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks y’all! Always trying to improve the B-Roll. So glad you’ve noticed the increase. I learned a bunch hanging with Honey I Roam this winter and watching Guilietta edit and just chatting about how they make their videos. The audio blips had been driving me crazy. I didn’t realize if that was the camera or me using a low quality SD card. The camera kept freezing or the footage would have horizontal white/purple/pink lines in the shot. It was so frustrating. I think the new camera will solve both my issues. The color quality and low light quality is so much better with the new GoPro. I always burn the shit tickets!

    • @BarelySqueakinBy

    So is this how most composting toilets work, like having to basically pull the whole thing out n tip it upside down to empty?
    And secondly, how easy/difficult is it for your wife to lift it n dump it? 🍻

    • @thecumminscamper
      @thecumminscamper  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, this is basically how a composting toilet works. The only thing I skipped in terms of the video footage was rinsing it out with a hose. Unfortunately the design of the toilet there are some corners that after you flip it upside down compost and poo get caught so although you don’t have to rinse it, I try to rinse it whenever I change it.
      Marisa has no problem lifting the toilet to change the compost. It’s not very heavy. Maybe 30lbs with “everything“ in it
