Finally!

It all came together.

We started out this morning with our departure from the campground in Virginia.Packing up and hitching went very smoothly, and although it was a tight fit, we made it out of the campground without any mishaps.

And then we were on the road. Today was a three state day, although we only traveled about 215 miles.

There were dark skies all around us for parts of our trip, but we didn’t actually see too much rain – for a change!!

We got off at the exit for the campground, with fingers crossed that this would be an easier landing.

The road to the campground was actually paved, with enough room for two way traffic!! (Good sign.)

And the campground itself was so open – no concrete pads to negotiate around!

 

And we have a nice large open pull through site. Smile

Only one little misstep for us – we forgot to make sure that our sewer connection was close enough to the campground sewer – and we had already unhitched! So we had to hitch back up to move the fiver a few feet.

 

I don’t think our next door neighbor is going anywhere anytime soon.

  2. I always hop out and see if my cords are going to be long enough before I even turn off the engine. But I too have had to do some jockeying that I hadn't planned on at times.....

  7. Ah another thing to look forward to some day. Living in the mountains we do not get delivery pizza here to our house. Maybe someday in our RV!

    But then I like my own home made best. I wonder what kind of oven I will have. Will it do pizza?
