All was hot and all was good and I'm not having to carry any haz mat labeled equipment. By the by, they have a Kurig at this KOA and coffee was not as good as yours but darn fine this morning.VStar Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634216576989421497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1394161184343172403.post-49949005477659702872012-07-29T17:59:09.476-04:002012-07-29T17:59:09.476-04:00Hey Ken - I'm game, just got to invent some so...Hey Ken - I'm game, just got to invent some sort of holding device that will keep the sandwich in place (and keep, you know, at least 90% of the road grime out of it).

It also was one third the price as the other one and is treed and quite lovely aside from the numerous strange and nasty little, biting beetles that are everywhere.) The owners here are fantastic.
