Success!


We completed the main projects before Labor Day and successfully camped at two different state parks for a total of nine nights. The first two nights were incredibly hot and humid, but the second outing was absolutely wonderful. The kids seemed to enjoy themselves and are excited for our next trip.

I'm getting used to driving a large vehicle and figuring out the systems. I had a slight problem with the awning on the first trip, but no one was hurt and Mr. Q was able to fix it. I successfully dumped the waste tanks by myself (which involved packing up the RV, driving it to the dump station and then driving back, re-parking/leveling and setting up the awning again). The generator is leaking oil and the house battery needs replacing, but neither problem will stop us from doing a bit more exploring this fall. I think I'm ready to leave the state on a solo trip with the kids!
