Comic Relief

These photos illustrate one of the most ridiculous aspects of RV living.  It takes both of us to easily light the pilot in our oven.  Easily may be misleading.

Step one - Find Wayne

Step two - Adopt the position

I'm pushing the button to release the gas and Wayne is lighting the pilot.

Rear view

Success!
To light the stove by one's self requires even more contortions.  I find it totally ridiculous that a better system is not in place.  The furnace starts electronically and so does the water heater.  The RV industry makes some funny decisions about where to cut costs.  I know that more people use their furnace and water heaters than ovens.  In fact lots of people never use the oven.  The difficulty of lighting it is probably why.
