Cool New to the forum, not new to Forest River

Happy New Year, everyone.

After years of being boaters, and years of listening to my brother (whom some of you know as the Director of F.R.O.G.) extoll the joys of RVing, my wife and I bought our first travel trailer a year ago. In our first year, we logged over 100 days of use, went on several very enjoyable F.R.O.G. trips, and met a bunch of great people - including several new couples that we met last weekend at a F.R.O.G. Dutch-treat dinner in St. Louis (hi, Oakman!). We're already looking at trading the 2604 on something a little bigger, and will be attending the STL RV show next weekend.

We look forward to spending more time on the road and more time on the forum. Until we meet in person, we wish all of you safe travels.

Capt. Mike. The Missouri contingent of RVers continues to grow on this forum. There are quite a few Rockwood owners on the forums too so I'm sure you will find some interesting posts here.

Give a yell if you find yourself headed to the north east.

Some time when Yvonne isn't around, you might want to ask Mike why Yvonne's name is "Danforth."

Hi, Youroo.

We were so impressed with both yours and Tom and Adell's units tht we are looking at both the Rockwood Windjammer or the Flagstaff V-Lite.

First welcome to the forum.

The V nose units are indeed very nice and still abit of a celebrity on the highway. We have yet to find a unit of any type we would trade ours for.
