New guy from Cincinnati

Howdy all! Im new to the forum but not to camping. I have recently purchased a 2000 Rockwood Ultra-lite 2501 TT. I have done a lot to it already and have enjoyed most all of it.. Im on here to look for tips and tricks and how to's and hopefully give some advise along the way.. This is my first TT, im tired of doing the tent thing..

What got me was the dewy grass in the morning....crawling out of a tent onto cold dewy grass...usually in a hurry....

When DW and I dated we tented a lot... We were of course younger.. When DD and DS came along there was little league, soccer, boy scouts, girl scouts etc.. We didn't camp for years.. When DD and DS got to be 15-16 they of course didn't know who Mom and Dad were anymore..lol We were sitting one weekend and DW says hey lets go camping we have not done that in years.. I dusted off the tent and away we went.. Of course during the night the air mattresses went flat and we both ended up being stiff and sore... Month later bought a pop up, that lasted a few years, then on to a 1976 Corsair 20 foot TT, 2 years later a 2000 Mallard 24 ft TT, 2 years after that the first 5ver a Puma 32 foot, 8 years later (this year) 260 RLD Crusader (29 feet) we affectionately call the "hotel on wheels". Only thing missing is room service.. camping is an evolution to say the least.....
