Congratulations on a good job!!! All you need is to complete a task like that and it builds a lot of self confidence.
OH, congrats on the new rig also.

Congrads on the safe trip and of course the new CR unit. For you this will probably be the longest winter in a long time, but it will give you lots of time to learn and get ready.

You have to rember back yard camping can be some of the best camping ever. It gets you used to your camper and lets you know what you want and need for it. Congrats on new camper.

congrats on your successful trip. I remember the first trip we made from Wisconsin to Minnesota in snow and wind. I was too scared to go so my husband and son-in-law went to pick out 5ver up but then 2 days later we drove to California. Fortunately no snow or wind on that first trip so all was well.
