Now what?

[Keith Strehle]

Thanks Howard, I appreciate all the assistance offered here on the
forum. It's been very helpful. I believe the propane problem is
related to the power problem. As soon as I get a day off, without
rain, I'll check all the batteries and plug into shore power. They
say it never rains in So Cal. Don't believe it!
