Subject:Thanks re Catalina 2500

Thanks to all of the listees for the opinions on the Catalina 2500
awning.  I installed it and have used it in both the patio and the
"cantilever" position on two camping trips so far.

It was simple to unstall, and looks great.  The 90 Westy is silver grey
and the awning is blue and white.  We opted to go with the 8 ft model,
and used all 3 of the 30 degree angle mounting brackets in the adapter
kit.. The straight brackets looked like they might interfere with the
operation of the top opening.

The bottom brackets are placed as low as they can go, (in the rear,
right beside the side marker light and in the front, near the gas cap).

Thanks again for the recommendations.

Now we are wanting to buy one of the Coleman ovens to use for baking
biscuits, etc. on the built in 2 burner propane range in the Westy.
Have any of you actually used the oven that Coleman makes.  If so, does
it have any shortcomings?  Any opinions will be appreciated.
