Anything new? How's the floor project?

Need to pull a couch and a desk out. So that I can finish the floor project. This weekend out of propane, in the middle of nowhere. Trying to fill it up so that we can finish cooking dinner. The closest place with propane doesn't have an employee on hand right now to actually pump propane. The next closest place will be closed before I can get there.
Did I mention I am out of gas? It's raining. Other than that just greatttnr.gnastsaftmInnId

Sorry for your troubles. You need to add a guage to keep a check on your tanks. Helps a lot.

If you unexpectedly ran out of propane, you may want to make sure you did not damage a line or fitting doing the floor repair. Be safe!

Get you an electric skillet for back up.

Days like that happen! Sorry you're getting one of them.

Had a propane leak, outside the camper. Its fixed. I have a dual tank setup, one of the regulator hoses is "persnickety". Next replacement, I'll go to a two stage regulator/single tank system and just move tanks. I can't find a reliable hose mfg whose fittings stay sealed at the tank connection for more than a few years. I've already replaced both tanks, as well.

and yes, an induction hotplate as a backup is on the list. Could have fired up the smoker, used the sous vide, built a wood fire, or grabbed the charcoal. but as it was already 8pm, and stir fry was both planned and prepped... Propane was needed.

A back up plan for the back up plan. Not a bad thing.
