Hi from Southeastern MA

Hi all. New to both the RV world and this forum. Have been a tenter since I was a kid, but last year my wife decided she was done with that!

And so now we're the proud new owners of a 2013 Rockwood Roo 23SS! Or at least, we will be when we pick it up in a couple weeks.

Looking forward to reading up and applying the many lessons learned from the folks on this forum to our future RV experiences!

Thanks Turbs. It will certainly be nice to not have to blow up an air mattress anymore.

Congrats on your new Rockwood Roo! Tent camping is fun but not as much as campering. It is so nice not to be on the ground - it's like a home on wheels.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new rig. Will keep our fingers crossed this storm doesnt leave much around to prevent us from all getting out soon with the rigs!

Thanks all for the welcome. I'm a snowmobiler so I'm OK with these late season storms, but only for ONE more weekend haha.
