We are now considered Seasonal Campers

THIS IS OUR NEW CAMPERJUST NOT BIG ENOUGH!!!!!!!!


This new adventure of ours started this September. We have friends that bought a camper and a pontoon this last summer. We ran into them one day and they invited us to there camp site and also took us a ride on there pontoon. Well, from that point we were hooked. The next thing we knew we were in the market for a camper. Being rookies at this we bought the first camper that we found. It was a fifth wheel camper and at the time it looked like it was plenty big enough. It was a older camper but was in very good shape . We picked out a campsite put the camper on it and we were considered campers. One weekend with a six foot four husband, two girls , a dog, bikes, toys, lots and lots of food and beverages and anything else that we thought we might need we realized we needed a bigger camper if we wanted to be a seasonal camper. We decided we would look at trading the camper in on a bigger one and we would take it to trade it in where the people that we bought it off of bought it. The people that sold us the camper must of known that we were rookies because they sold us a camper with a salvaged title so the camper was worth nothing on a trade in. We came to find out that the camper had been in a hail storm and there was enough damage to the camper that the insurance company just paid the people off and then gave them a salvaged title. We were just furious, and didn't know what to do. I did a little research on the internet and realized that we had a right to demand our money back considering the people didn't tell us it had a salvaged title and we paid a lot more for it then it was worth. We have a friend that is a lawyer, so he sent the people a letter asking for our money back and by luck they returned our money and we returned the camper. One thing about the little adventure we went on was we knew that we loved to camp so we were off to find another camper. We now have a camper that we just love and am pretty sure it is big enough. It has two bedrooms and two push outs.By the time all of this happened camping season was over so we didn't get to spend a night to see how everything worked. . We have it sitting on a lot but, won't know if we will be able to keep it there until April 1st. We have our fingers crossed because it is a very nice lot. Once we know that we will be able to keep it there we are going to build a deck on it, then presto there is our summer home. WE CAN'T WAIT. We are also hoping to buy a pontoon sometime this summer. The girls just love to fish and Robin is in heaven being on a lake. Robin has a fishing boat that the motor is to big for this lake. (Of course).
