It's getting so that I'm about the last to get the word on any new item coming onto the market these days!
Had the ABC news on this morning and they had a little segment where they display new products coming to the market place. One they had this morning was a clear (or nearly clear) 20# plastic propane tank. This thing really caught my eye as one of the drawbacks to the current metals ones is that your never really sure how close they are to EMPTY. This plastic idea has a great feature in that you can see exactly how much propanes is in the tank. Here's some info on it in case anyone's interested.

I'm going to keep my eye on this new contraption as it really does have my interest. Anyone know anything about them?

Haven't heard about them yet, but they'll give the crooks info on how much propane is in yer tanks, and whether its worthwhile to steal them! Rustyj |

| Hi Dale, you weren't the last to hear about this! I hadn't heard a thing until I read your post! Admittedly, I haven't been on the boards as much as before and that could be part of why! Also, have not been able to camp since I got home from my summer in the mountains! |

| Hi Jen! Wondered how your last summer's camping went. Was hoping you would give a run down of the summer's events! Sure has been quiet around this board! For the life of me I don't understand ... really is active and interesting for a spell and then just dies on the vine. I'm always afraid it might have been something I said! Some time back Nature Net had a board just for canoes and kayaks and it was a great site for a time. There were not many of us and I guess we finally exchanged all our knowledge on the subject and the board just went dead. Maybe a post every couple of months or so ... and they finally shut it down. Sure hope that doesn't happen here. Glad to see your post. Dale |

| Hi Dale, I've missed everybody! I had a great summer! Very relaxing and had a lot of fun! I hurt my hand in the beginning of summer and now have to see an orthopedic doctor. I've just been very busy dealing with a lot of serious issues on the homefront like family with terminal cancer, somebody with aids, and somebody very close to me suffering from ptsd. If there is any advice you are Rusty could give me regarding helping somebody with ptsd drop me a line, please! I just figured with military and war experience you guys might know a thing or two! Well, let's see. I didn't see any of those plastic propane tanks but I did see many bald eagles, moose, and of course my favorite, the loons! I felt like I was living in luxury in my new to us camper with heat, hot water, and slide out! I don't think I can ever go back except that I still love remote wilderness tent camping the best! I missed my girl this summer as I'm sure you missed yours! However, the new dog worked out really terrific! He came to work with me, loved boating, and turned out to be an excellent swimmer! He's a big dog, flat coat retriever, but he managed to go kayaking with me without flipping us over! I just kept my fingers crossed we wouldn't see any ducks near us! |
