New from WI

Hey member on a few other sites and heard about this one. Looks like a busy place. Anyway we are from WI and just picked up our 2017 Columbus 320RS a couple weeks ago. Coming from at Rockwood TT this is a LOT bigger. Can't wait to get out with it.

We got into RV'ing because our kids moved from WI to CA, CO an MN. We also have 2 Norwegian Elkhounds hence the screen name. We don't like to kennel them as they need some space for exercise. So we take them with us everywhere.

Looking forward to lots more info on here. I'll be reading a lot of posts and if I feel I can add anything I will.

Attached are a couple of pictures of the new rig setup and the dogs on a trip last year.

Welcome Dave, from fellow (although former, now that we're retired) Dane County residents. Our first house had a rural Verona address (off county M). Peggy moved to Madison when she started school back in 1970 and didn't leave until she retired in 2012. I moved there in 1974 and again left for good in 2012.

Do you have your Devil's Lake or Governor Dodge reservations made yet?

All great parks! I can picture the view out our windshield, sometime in the early 90s, set up on one of the bluff top sites, looking down at the confluence of the Wisconsin and Mississippi rivers. Doesn't get any better.

Did the boy scout trip to Devils Lake many decades ago and fell off one of those rocks - thankfully into a nice soft pine tree.
