Mike:  From the docstring:

 "dashes - dash pattern for parallels (default [1,1], i.e. 1 pixel on, 1 
pixel off)."

So use dashes=[1,0] to get solid lines.

"xoffset - label offset from edge of map in x-direction
  (default is 0.01 times width of map in map projection coordinates).
 yoffset - label offset from edge of map in y-direction
  (default is 0.01 times height of map in map projection coordinates)."

So, the default is 0.01*(m.xmax-m.xmin).   Making it 0.1*(m.xmax-m.xmin) 
makes the labels much farther out for me.
