    Check your thermistor on the back fin in the fridge
    Down for warmer.

    @mikeberger5335 3 дня назад +2

    Check into testing and or adjusting position of your thermamister inside your fridge. If it is faulty, the fridge will operate at its coldest. Moving it up or down on the fin changes temp in fridge as well as moving to another fin further from the outside fin. Check it out. May solve your freezing issues. Good luck!

    The little tab on the fins in the fridge sets your temp moving it right makes it colder and left warmer. Ok well maybe look at the manual for direction to move the little tab. Happy Camping.

    Please check the sliding plastic device called a THERMOSTOR on the inside fin of your fridge. Up means warmer and Down mean colder.

    Memories are better than stuff from a gift shop. I haven't been to Branson since 1977. I'm sure it has grown. It was nice to see that cave again and Silver Dollar City.

    Branson is definitely a Tourist Town!
    Lots of theaters and live music.
    I love the Petersen's Family Band, that performs there regularly.

    I lived in Branson from 1998-2012 and totally agree with you about it being ruined by commercialization. So much of what attracted outdoors man has been ruined by clearing way for hotels and condos. The College of the Ozarks campus has some beautiful buildings specially the chapel. Thanks for sharing your adventures of traveling.

    We had family in Bella Vista AR and so spent alot of time on Beaver Lake and we sooo love Bull shoals lake! It is so clean and clear with NO boat traffic! Being so huge you can always find the perfect place to ski..or fish..etc. Going back there to camp this next summer! Happy Holidays to you both!....and yes, Branson has become very commercialized.

    Besides the previous suggestions put your veggies and fruits in the bottom drawer and meats at the top shelf. Also a rv fridge fan on the bottom shelf. And most important do not over fill your fridge. Awesome video, we love Missouri and Arkansas. Brandson was not our favorite because of how commercial it is.

    Funny, we were at Branson as this video came out. We agree, way too commercialized for us. But we did enjoy Lost Canyon Cave & Adventure Trail and Dogwood Canyon Nature Park...both were beautiful! Always looking for outdoor nature experiences.

  • @sandraecker6463
    @sandraecker6463 3 дня назад +2

    I agree that the Branson area is pretty overbuilt and commercialized. There are a lot of hikes, but you need to know where to go. It reminds me of Pigeon Forge in Tennessee with all of the crazy attention grabbing attractions. Not for me.

    Branson is great for families with diverse activities and shows/museums. Very commercialized and touristy. Table Rock Lake/State Park was definitely a good nature lovers choice. I have heard there is some good zip lining in the area as well.

    If you're ever in upstate NY, you should visit Howe Caverns. It's 1.25 miles long (plus a 1/4 mile boat ride). They offer different tour packages, but the lantern tour is my favorite. I actually proposed to my wife at the heart shaped rock toward the end of the tour.

    Since you enjoy nature you should have gone to the main store of Bass pro Shops…….there they have a huge aquarium with a lot of different species of fish and other things……there is also a large museum to see as well as the stuff on the Bass Pro store……it will take all day to explore

    I love Branson Missouri, it's beautiful, i'd like to go back & see the Awesome shows, :) they do have great trails & parks, maybe you just didn't have enough time to go. & I love this time of season, I love the lights, & 6 weeks away for Christmas isn't really all that far away. We are all decorated here, we like to enjoy the lights & this season without rushing thru it. That's just us though. Hopefully you will have more hiking & nature trails next time. 😊 It's almost thanksgiving, & I hope you both have a wonderful time.

    My husband and I felt the same way about Branson. The train ride was great and being from Indiana is was fascinating to know that one of the train cars was from Indiana but I have always heard Branson referred to as Little Pigeon Forge and I would definitely say that is how it felt. We like being in nature and in the mountains. Branson was very disappointing. I do have to say that going to the Bass Pro Shop in St. Louis was really cool!

    • @LivingLargeCamping

    that is the beauty of RV travel. We get to some places we like more than other places and some that we like less, but all we have to do is hook up and go, and we can try somewhere else. :) I do agree that Xmas decorations are too early. I expect Easter chocolate to be out any day now. Continued safe travels....

    I used to live just over the state line in Arkansas (in the 80’s) and worked at Silver Dollar City - used to call it steal your dollar city 🤣and worked in Branson at now gone Roy Clark Theater (entertainer) sure has changed from a small town local talent destination to a commercialized destination. It is so beautiful there a shame it has become another 💩 tourist trap. So sad. Sometimes progress isn’t a good thing. Wishing you well in your journeys this winter. See ya in your next vid! By the way nice to watch such a great loving couple and Barkley too 🐕

    Why in the world would you go to Branson thinking anything other than its a tourist destination!?!? I feel very put off by your video after you even admitted that you grew up going here as a kid. I found it to be a very negative video of something you knew to be true. And complaining that Silver Dollar City already had Christmas decorations out in November!!! That is what most people are excited for after their fall festival ends... Maybe do a little more research on what you are getting yourselves into before you just happen to go somewhere next time so your expectations are met.... Geesh

      Why in the world would you feel very put off about what someone else thinks about their experience?
      I totally get that you're entitled to your opinion, and at the same time, so are they.
      There's simply no need to be territorial about your support for your locality.
      You may not agree, but it really does not make your opinion have more validity than their experience.
      They paid their way to get there, and recorded their experience.
      Because you disagree, does not make your opinion more valid than theirs.
      It is literally a matter of preference.
      Simply because yours is different does not make theirs worse.
      Personally, I have found Branson a matter of dollars.
      Not Beauty and serenity.
      Que Sera Sera
      What you enjoy doesn't mean that I enjoy.
      It's really that simple.
      What you enjoy, is simply not what everyone enjoys.
      That's how the world works
