I used my new Mr. Heater portable buddy today for the first time . I also have a 2 year old one . I noticed the new one does not have a molded plastic shield around the tank fitting like my older one does . The stem is exposed and I think could get easliy damaged as it is bounced around in the otter. I supposed they did this to make screwing the cylinder on easier. My question is has anybody damaged theirs in that spot or bent it and made the fitting leak ?
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
