I love watching the new RVers.  We had a couple next to us with a shiny new 5er; it took them about an hour and 45 attempts to get it backed in. Lots of pull-up, back-up, arm flailing, etc. I shudder to think about their sewer connections.

Look for a copy of The Crowded Camper Goes to Little Rock, by our very own mutant-author. As newbies, she & her DH made quite a few blunders, & realized they were no longer newbies when they spotted other folks either doing or about to do some of the same things. It's a well-written humorous account, highly recommended.
Cheers!

I have and still do make the odd boo boo, but some of these people are entertaining at the very least.

And now for something completely different...
Carol and I celebrated 22 years of wedded bliss yesterday (of course we practiced for a bit before that). I didn't get on the forum to mention it yesterday because I spent the day with her.

Dave and Carol, if whatever Tim meant was good, I’m all for it, but there’s nothing gooder that a PoP!
Happy Anniversary from me and Nola! [emoji177]

You wouldn't know about his shorts, you had your back to us!
Lesson learned; Don't trust mutants standing behind you!
