We had lost of fun camping. It was HOT!

We got up to the campground an hour before "check-in time" so we went down to the beach for lunch.

Here is our site at Bayview State Park.

All set up for camping.

Here are the 3 lanterns I took camping. I lit them all right before dark and they all ran until 11:00pm.

An after dark shot. Notice the one in the middle is not very bright for some reason??? It os my Sears 220 style lantern.

Saturday mornings breakfast was waffles. With the wind guard on the 500A I found another issue. The stove does not get enough air if I run it more than 50%. If I turn it up the flame turns yellow.

Saturday dinner was pizza in the Coleman stove. This is my son's pizza. 12 minutes at 400 degrees was perfect.

My deep dish pizza.

Yum yum....


We had a lot of fun. It was so hot last night I ended up opening the teardrop door at 12:30 AM an sleeping with it open.

Notice the one in the middle is not very bright for some reason???

I have a '56 200A that needs 10-15 pumps every 40 mins or so whereas my two '62 200As burn bright for the fountful. Methinks it's the checkvalve.

[rainjer]

I do not think it is not a pressure issue. I burned it for 4 hours Friday without pumping it. It still had pressure Saturday when I lit it. Also pumping it does not make it brighter.

...pumping it does not make it brighter.

Interesting.

Oh well. Do let us know what it might be when you find out.
