New Members and New to Rving

[melmckayiii]

Hello all, we are new to the RV World and hope to find a lot of useful items here. Just purchased a 1996 Itasca Sunrise 25RC. Going to take our first trip in a couple weeks, so will be here a lot before then to figure things out and get some tips.

Hi ya, Mel & Tammy. Welcome to iRV2, we're glad you're here. Congrats on your new-to-you Itasca.

Dave & I like to camp at Cedarbrook in Lebanon - not too far from you. When you get the chance, check out the regional upcoming campouts in the North Central & Pond Piggie Forums. You're welcome to join in any of them. Also, post there when you're camping & if anyone's free, we might join or just stop by to say HI.

Hope to meet up w/you sometime. Happy camping.

Well, we will see how it goes. We are leaving for a trip here in couple weeks to try it out. Taking the boys to Disney and then camping on an ocean front campground for the last couple days. Hope we have it all figured out by then. haha

If you don't have it all figured out by then, you certainly will by the time you get back.

True, I have to give a big thank you to my neighbor. He works for Soutwest RV here in the Cincinnati area (ok....so it was a shameless plug) and has spent the last several evenings helping me knock the cobwebs off of it and giving me some points. He spent last night resealing the roof and vents for me. He has been a lifesaver for us in not only learning, but getting us some parts and things we would have never thought about.
