Talking New to the Camping World

Hey
We just took delivery of a 2008 Rockwood 8317SS. The wife and I camped when we were young, now we want to bring the enjoyment to our children. We are from Louisiana, hence Geaux Tigers. Hope to be chating with all of you. Pics to come, need the wife to resize them. No trip set yet, oldest son playing football and the weekends are shot. Later

Welcome!! Man, so many new folks lately, I'm beginning to feel like a Walmart Greeter.

We got into camping with the same background and the same wishes, and we haven't regretted a day of it. I hope your family's experience is as rich.

Hmmm d... e.... f here it is... definition of 'flaming' ... "making fun of older guys and walmart greeters in general." Boy if I weren't in this blue vest and walker, you'd be sorry.

Welcome Tigers,
I Hope you have many years enjoyment with your family in your new rig.
Louisiana is a beautiful state and we hope to get a chance to bring our rig thru there soon.

We are looking to purchase a TT in the near future and live in Baton Rouge. We are very interested in the Rockwood 8313SS. Where did you purchase your unit? Were you happy with the dealer?

Thanks and happy camping.
