First Trip review ....

OK first ?? We arrived Thursday afternoon and left Sunday noon, is that 3 or 4 days camping, need to keep accurate records . We had great time with only a couple of issues... I guess those red blue green and white knobs on the water docking station need to be pointed to the intended position, results I filled the fresh water to the top and it was flowing nicely out the over flow a brief look and that was corrected, fresh water drain opened lesson learned. Later that night some dripping was seen below the outside shower hose/sprayer, My grandson looked in behind the panel and said PawPaw just a valve not tight I got it. Everything else worked great, the comfort level is just amazing. Used stove top worked well, cooked mostly on 22" Blackstone Flattop. We were on a buddy site with 2 other 5th wheels, brother and brother in-law so I had plenty of help they are both long time campers. Everybody cooked and meals were really good. We made a list of what we needed and what we should have left at home, think I got rid of about 200lbs and I organized all outside storage. We were surprised how much room there was in that small refrigerate. Going back for Easter Saturday/Sunday with the Daughter and grand kids. Verizon MIFI worked good and I was able to watch some of the Masters. Overall good time

Congratulations on a great first trip!
Sounds like you've got a pretty sharp grandson.
It's definitely a learning curve when it comes to figuring out what you need to leave and what to take. For us, it's a continuous learning curve because what we need on trips varies depending on the type of travel we're doing.
Have fun with the family this Easter weekend.

Hey Thanks.... My grandson works for a boat dealer and he sets up motors wires adds options front to back, he also does the PDI on new boats when they arrive... he even knew the name and maker of the valve that was not tight. We will keep making list until we get it all figured out.
