That 68 on the thermostat at night is probably what got ya. You might consider electric heaters for the bedroom and turn the furnace down to 55 or less at night. If temps are to be in the hard freeze range I'd use an electric heater upstairs but NOT downstairs so the furnace runs enough to keep the belly tanks and lines from freezing. If above freezing temps, then I'd use an electric heater downstairs, too. That's what we do, anyhow. The furnace will eat up that propane in a hurry.
If you are in a place for a month or more and expect to use a lot of propane, many parks will provide a 100 lb propane bottle, charging only for the propane. And at a cheaper rate than refilling your 30 pounder. You'll need to connect a hose for it, though.
