She's officially ours!!!

Today was the day we finally got to take possession of our new 2015 Keystone Cougar 301SAB 5er!!! What a trip towing something so big! ...and I wasn't even the one driving.

Hubby did a great job with his first time ever pulling a 5th wheel. We got her to her storage spot, unhitched, leveled her up, put out the slides, and just checked her out for a bit trying to get over the shock that we really have a 5er now and our life is about to change quite a bit once we get our house sold. Still in the downsizing process there.

Then we put all the slides in, buttoned her up, and just stood there together looking at her like two kids staring in awe. lol

I took a few pics; but, in all the excitement I forgot to take any when the 5er was hitched up to the truck.

Now life gets really interesting!

Thank you, everyone!

Thanks for all the nice compliments and good wishes. <------ This is my hubby and I doing the happy dance!


<---- This will probably be many of those around us the first time we set our 5er up in an RV spot as they watch us newbies figuring things out. lol


It's nice to officially be RVers and a part of this great group of people.
