    Question for you folks that are more accustomed to humidity than I.

    Had a little rain overnight/this morning. Sitting at about 75% humidity and 70f. Working outside, sweat seems to have stopped working.

    How much of a drop in humidity before natural cooling starts working again?

    Those ski trips aren't cheap & neither is the gear. That's why I work in the industry. Pro deals.

    It's 92 in the shade here today and 75% humidity. You need a breeze to be blowing onto the sweat.

    The OM booked us on some loads. Fortunately we're not leaving until Sunday.

    So whilst I get the Chamaro serviced ( currently ), do laundry, and other human stuff, The OM shall continue to be Holiday Tabby.

    To jump into the whole 'camper' thing.

    The Hazul and I talked it over.

    2 weeks of paid vacation a year.
    14 days.

    Now if we spent those 14 days @ $100 a night in a decent hotel with a bar, TV, maid service, and "breakfast buffet" it would cost, as one of reasonable intelligence might think, roughly $1400.

    Now, if we took that money and invested it in a $50,000 camper, it would take 35.71 years of sleeping in it before we broke even.
    On the other hand, were we to sleep in a $200 a night hotel, it would be something around half.

    My point is this; you do with your money as you see fit and makes you happy. Be happy with your 4 wheelers, motorcycles, boats, campers, and whatnot, BUT, if some RV salesman tries to sell you a camper claiming it will save you money, run far away.

    And, PS, the OP (can't remember who it was) looks like he's parked in a pretty sweet place. That said, 99% of the RV's I see parked are in places I wouldn't recommend.

    . The dew point is the indicator for me has to be at least 25 degrees below ambient temperature 40 degrees is ideal.
