Where did Summer go???


We finally took the motorhome out for a trial run. We drove up to a campgound in Rumney NH called River...something. It was pretty deserted this time of year but had everything we needed for our maiden voyage. Everything worked great, we did learn that we need to be very level for the lift to reach the ground. The first site we tried was a little uneven. Not a problem as far as leveling the motor home but a big problem when the lift ended about 6" off the ground. Although it is nice enough to stay inside all the time, I really enjoy the sunshine too much to do that.

I was able to use the shower with no problem. The bed was comfortable. We did cheat on meals and brought 2 microwaveable dinners. So we didn't really try out the stove.

I had hoped we'd have another opportunity to go somewhere again but with so much going on, there won't be much time. Doug was getting pretty comfortable driving. He does need to practice backing up though. I think he does OK but in case we get in a predicament, a little practice goes a long way!
