In reply to Laura. One other trick... we use the cabinets above the sofa as our food pantry. If the sun is on our left while we're camped, we'll leave those cabinet doors open so the air conditioned air can circulate in there, otherwise it gets really hot inside the cabinets which probably isn't great for our food.

This is something we learned real quick on the way back from picking Barney up… the AC’s can only do so much. Our first couple days, it wasn’t that hot or we were parked in the shade and the rig stayed cool. When we moved to other campgrounds, we actually thought something was wrong with the AC because it just wasn’t cooling down (90 degrees is NOT cool!!). Little did we realize that would be a constant issue. I guess we’ll be leaving the shades down a lot during the day in the summer. Or driving due north!!
