Hot water and boondocking

[Gardner Yeaw]

Bill,
I don't know if my previous post made it, I got a bad message, so
here I go again.

Nice find on the Chilipepper. I may even install one in my house.
I need to install a bypass for the hot water heater in the Bird for
winterization, so it might be a good time to install one of these as
well.

I had to replace the ice maker module in the U-line, and the
microwave krumped, so I don't think the Chilipepper will be on the
imediate horizon.

I was thinking I might paint the Bird Visa blue with Red ink trim.
What do you think?
