Camper vs FW

Going camping on Monday and went to the TC today to get it out of hibernation. Wow is it tiny inside, this is our first time since ordering our fifth wheel that we have set foot in the camper. What are we going to do with so much space in the FW?

Yeah. That is a problem. DW had us sell my Okanagan TC (Loved the TC!) and now we have a 39' FW. We have so much room that we're not organized. Plus the days of not planning have ended. It'll take a day or two go get used to the extra room.

Nature abhors a vacuum. That fancy new big 5er is for all intents an empty space, therefore a vacuum, and you will soon fill it with what you really need plus things, gadgets and otherwise useless 'stuff' you might or might not ever use ----- someday. Oh and we went from a truck camper, two fairly small TTs, a medium size 33' 5er and now a 4 slide 38 footer so have become experts at filling empty spaces.

You'll love all that room, and you will fill it up...then, slowly but surely, you'll start taking things back out.
