Rookie RV'er from Michigan

After 40 years in tents, I graduated this week to the RV life with a 2016 Rockwood Roo 233S. Our family of four spent our first night in a campground last night and stayed remarkably dry during a very rainy day and evening.

A few camping firsts for us this weekend: Cranked up the AC when it got too humid. Watched a TV show before bed. Set off the smoke detector while making breakfast. Took a shower in our own private bathroom! Waited in a long line at the dump station.

We're loving our new toy. Can't wait for next weekend.
