Hello All...

Hi
Beeper is our golden Retriever (7-month) pup who so far loves the RV lifestyle. We are not new to camping but we are new to a motorhome. We purchased a 37-foot 1998 Coachman Santara DP with as a 14-foot slide We are going to see how we like a Coach and if we do like it we will trade up in a few years when we retire.
I’m starting to gut it. We do not like the dinette and the loveseat/sleeper couch and we don’t need the extra sleeping quarters. As we read through the forum I like the information and stories the members have to share.
We live in Sheboygan Wisconsin
Thanks
Dale and Kris

32-inch flat screen

the bedroom/headboard looked like something from the playboy era. It now has a air adjustable bed I'll take pics when it is finished.
