We are storing ours in FL this year. It'll make it easier to get down there & enjoy the weather. The last few years we towed down & everything was caked with salt. Trying something new this year.

We spent October is this spot. I rented it till May so any time we get a chance to be in FL, our 2nd home is waiting.

I eat breakfast every morning sitting at the dining table looking out the big back window with the morning sun coming in looking at the mountains. , this is our 3rd winter in the same lot. This is a manufacture home park that has a bunch of empty lots that they rent out to RVs, the lots are 80 deep and 60 wide.

That sounds awesome but got the free trial of home schooling kids during 2020-2021 and didn't renew the subscription on that one.

2005-2007 have to be some of the best looking trucks Ford ever made.

Not mine but a fifth wheel being pulled by a super duty.... on the Merritt parkway in CT which is a passenger vehicle, nothing in tow state road in CT. I think technically my F250 is too heavy for the road, it has a height limit of 8ft cause some of the bridges are under 10 feet in points. This truck has a 9 foot and change bridge in its path... rough day. Can't rely on google maps with the trailer.



The irony I was JUST thinking I will never take my trailer through NYC again, I did it way back in 2009 and got through fine but too much work and detours to deal with anymore.

Great year!

Had a great year! My Super Duty came in March and my 5th wheel was delivered in April. It’s not huge, just a little less than 30 feet. Perfect for just the two of us. We got eight trips of 7 to 10 days in with the most recent earlier this month. We hadn’t camped in years so it was like starting from scratch. Mistakes were made and a lot was learned! Bottom line we had some adventures and a lot of fun! Next year we hope to take longer and longer trips. Not going “full time” just long trips to various parts of the US.

Some pictures from the trip in early November.
