SuperDad and I did something yesterday. It’s something we’ve been working up to doing for weeks (him) (for me it had been many, many months) with increasing use of time and brain power. A top choice had been hemmed and hawed over, numbers crunched, and we were finally ready to make the big decision… and then someone else beat us to it.
Disappointed? A bit. But perhaps it wasn’t the right one — after all, we had to think so long and hard about it, trying to decide if it was it.
And then we checked out this one:
It’s not perfect, and it’s not new — but it did check nearly all the boxes* and the price was right. If all goes well, we’ll be bringing it home within the month.
*Counter space was one of the boxes.
**Many thanks to Jaime who walked me through the many steps of trailer shopping, giving much-needed advice — and apologies because I didn’t follow all of it, buying a bunkhouse anyway!
(And you’re probably right. I may regret the lost bathroom space.)

What is it like driving this vehicle?
We haven’t towed it yet, but it’s close in size and weight to the first trailer we rented.
Wait, that’s all the pictures we get?!?
The owner took it into the shop for winterization and warranty work on a few things. We haven’t taken possession yet and no money has changed hands, although those hands did shake with one another.
I am jealous–I would love a camper and my husband refuses. No further discussion. He hates to camp.
Oh, Melissa — that makes me so sad! For many years neither my husband nor I thought RV-ing wasn’t really camping. Life has changed and I’m ready to embrace it. This trailer isn’t my dream trailer but I think (hope!) it will work for us.
