The Trip Begins!!!


The Trip Begins!!!

We made the first 240 miles, made it to St. Mary’s KOA in Kingsland GA. Everything ran great took it nice and easy made it here at 8 pm.  Setup is quick and we have our old standby site C-14 which we have had just about every time taking the trip up to Baltimore. So 240 down only 8050 to go!!!  Will not see Florida again until late October 2013.

Background


Background:

Lisa and I have now been married for 6 years, in the beginning we had a sailboat that we would escape to. Yes escape with 5 boys in the house we need to escape and often. However Lisa ended being diagnosed with MS Multiple Sclerosis and one of her symptoms was unsteadiness walking and moving, she describes it as being on a rocking boat. Well walking around a sailboat is tricky even in the best of conditions so we thought that in order to have a long marriage (and not have Lisa fall over in the great wild ocean) we should sell the boat and get an RV. We bought our RV used about 3 years ago it is a small 23 foot travel trailer 2002 Rockwood Ultra-Lite. When we purchased it we knew we need to do some renovating as it was setup with bunk beds and a dinette, more for a family than what we needed. So out the beds and dinette went and in went two custom desk/office spaces. We ripped out the carpet and put down wood laminated flooring throughout, the laminate also help sure up a few soft spots in the floor.  We also added a half wall between the bed and rest of the RV and mounted a flat panel TV.


The RV....
