When Mrs Squirrel come a-campin' we have to bring a separate cooler for
her produce and veggies. Me, alone, the Vitrifrigo in the van is sufficient.

What I'd like to find is a small, standalone propane refrigerator that
will operate off those small 1-lb disposable propane bottles. Something
as movable as a cooler, so we can set it outside when in camp.
