First trip with new 5er

Picked up 5er last week and brought it out to the local lake. So far everything is working as advertised. It's very cool and raining but warm and cozy inside. Tomorrow should be sunny and warmer.

We're camped a Lake Thunderbird in Norman, OK in the Hickory Hill campground. No reservations first come first served. We came in Wednesday to make sure we got a lake front site. All lake front sites were full by Wednesday night.

First trip a big success! First night cold and wet, second day cloudy and cool. No leaks, body or plumbing. Heater worked great as did the fireplace. All appliances worked properly. Cleared up sun came out and sir conditioners worked great. Only problem found is a bind in the entry door and door needing a latch adjustment.
