Yeah, I've been thinking about solar heating. For now, we have a small LP heater in the camper. I'm also looking into getting - or converting an LP clothes dryer to work/spin on 12 volts.

I might put in a high water storage tank and fill it occasionally with a gasoline pump, and then let it gravity feed to us. Then, we'd only use the hand pump for cold drinking water. We have two LP refrigerators and I've been thinking of coverting them to kerosene. But, the way things are going with oil prices, LP might be just as cheap.
