We got a full week out of our TD battery due the selection of efficient lighting fixtures and frugal use of the same.

Did you run your radio off the 12v too? Maybe I'll have to install a 12v system w/ LEDs too.

Ray and Debbie - Most of the time, I ran the portable speakers off of AA's and the XM it's its internal battery. The XM's battery is good for 5 hours and recarges in the car. I ran the set-up for a an hour or two off the the inverter one night when the XM's internal battery ran out of juice.
Arne - I enjoyed some martinis earlier in the week. However, after I messed up my up my back, I couldn't enjoy them. The prescription meds I was give had strict warnings to avoid alcohol.
We also ran the inverter very briefly in the mornings to grind our coffee beans.

After pulling out on Monday, Kate and I went down to the Adirondack Museum. (Thanks for the twofer, Kathy!) We were in the Boat Building when the skies opened up, so between downpours we toured the rest of the museum, had lunch in their cafe and it wasn't too long before it quit and we headed on down the road. Spent two nights at Lake Durand and one at Fourth Lake in Lake Luzerne where I got in a little more fishing. Lots of crappie but I didn't feel much like cleaning fish so I just tossed 'em back. Then we drove down to PA for the TearJerkers Liberty Bell Chapter Pocono Getaway - I'm not much for camping on asphalt pads, but it was still a great time. We didn't encounter any more rain until Saturday night, but it stopped and held off Sunday morning just long enough to get packed up and hit the road for home.
Kate was delighted with the whole trip - she got LOTS of material for her new book. I can only hope that the Spring Tear-Up and the TearJerker's gathering continue to be a week apart. Ten days of teardrop time! Who could ask for a better vacation?!
