Hi Slim. There is a much easier way to check the level of propane in your tank. I use the Mopeka Tank sensor. It is a sensor that sticks to the bottom of your tank by a magnet. It connects to your cellphone by Bluetooth. It will display the tank level in inches or percentages and will work on any size tank. The cost in the U.S. was only $35.00. The battery is easy to replace and will generally last about a year. If you purchase one, be sure to get the rubber ring tank bottom spacer with it. That way you won't crush the sensor on those bumpy roads. Check it out online. I think you will like it better than having to disconnect your tank and lift it out of the straps. Don

I love Green Ridge State Forest, but it has grown in popularity in the last 3-4 years. We used to go from 2013-2019 on a Friday after work and would have plenty of sites to pick from. The past few summers, you are hard pressed to not be forced to camp in an overflow site. I think the draw to outdoor activity during Covid brought more people out. Or, more people learn about this special place. Glad to see it in such a great Vlog!

I live in Maryland and I found this video very interesting. Because of your video, I am adding it to my camping season trips. As you noticed, we have very few opportunities for free boondocking in Maryland. Although there is a flat $10 fee, it is still way less expensive than a state park or a commercial campground. When I need access to a shower or a laundry, I go to those campgrounds.

Fishing, hunting, swimming, finding all the lookouts for unbelievable photos. The history of the hotel on Tower Rd., Paw Paw Tunnel. Visit the Ranger Station and walk out on the lookout. Watch out for bears! Learn the history of the canal boats before the cargo trains, the history of the Apple orchards. So much to see and learn, just ask me!
