Hello, and to the forums. Glad to have you on board. Not much has changed with camping, but a lot has changed with campers. Light the water heater from inside, no pilot lights, auto leveling systems, power awnings, lot of new stuff out there. Realize you may not have gotten these in your camper, and if like me, don't want them, but some do. Hope you enjoy, and make great memories.

Welcome from Stratford Ontario. Always glad to see new Canadian members. We did a trip to the east coast two years ago and really enjoyed it. Hope you can make it to the rally in Goshen this August. (Look under 1st international frog rally in the rally area of the forum) In the mean time happy camping and safe travelling. Old Guys

Welcome from Pickering, Ontario.

After a 20+ years hiatus we came back to camping 3 years ago and we love it. I use the term 'camping' but it's really different now, with all the amenities of home and no kids.... honeymooners again. True BLISS.

We enjoy the heat of South Carolina and Florida, but also the tranquility of Ontario Provincial Parks the rest of the time. We're planning a Maritime trip next summer, all the way to NL.

Have a great season.
