Overview

I'm good to go with my set up. I'm starting to plan a road trip to Tennessee for April of next year. I'll leave the boat home.

I hope to do more travel camping with everyone, perhaps more in my state, as it is getting expensive running to IBMobile's camp in east central Cali. even tho very beautiful. Tractorman and everyone else I've met is a very good camping Buddy. @Doubletrouble,everyone we've ever met while camping has been just plain good people. Amazing 5th wheel you got too, Congrats! @IBMobile, no need to be jealously fired up, just look at my 10 ft. 2 inch camper and you'll be just fine.

It's been a while, we've been working around the campsite to get things cleaned up and situated the way we want them. Loving it so far! Lots of great people out at the camp ground. Thought I'd drop a pic or two of how things have come together. We also bought another golf cart to cruise around on. We still have our 1969 Harley Davidson cart as well. We use them both. Problem was the Harley cart just didn't do well hauling more than 2 people. The newer electric cart has heavy duty rear springs and seats in the rear. It handles passengers much better.

Thanks @JAG1 for the comments. I enjoyed your short stay. @Tractorman is a heck of a guy. Lot of ideas and theories.

I forgot to say that I had a good time visiting MoparMan for a couple days. It was good to see the Mopar Mansion again. It was fun traveling and camping with Tractorman, staying in my camper at his RV spot on acreage. Really pretty place at the base of the mountains and away from all the Heelots.

Well you got to admit it's the right type of .

He has finally confessed.

So I'm a bit but hey I can

Sounds like the guy who was doing the dishes in my trailer once.

Mike (JAG1) and I just arrived at my place about 10 miles northwest of Baker City. I want the thank Mike Nelson for his hospitality and letting us visit for a couple of days. In our defense, we really weren't sleeping in - would you step outside if there was a big guy out there walking around with blue hair and a 9 mm? I don't think so. - John

@IBMobile @Honey Badger Dads RV is using the electric rock now. But I'll have a full hookup RV pad out back soon.

Don't have my laptop so responding with Tractorman's. Nice to hear from you guys. We had steaks tonight. Yum! Hope you get better Dan. Billy thank you for all your effort on the site Weather is as perfect as ever here now JAG1.

Great! If my eyesight was better I would be at Camp Nelson. Does the plugin the rock still work for campers?

Nice! Wish you weren't so far away, I would do the same thing.

Well, it happened again. @Tractorman and @JAG1 showed up here with RVs. They made it about 6pm last night. We took off and had dinner last night at River Rock Cafe in Riggins, ID. Thank you @JAG1 for covering dinner for the group. We came back to the house and sat out back for most of the evening till 11pm chatting away about all kinds of topics. @Tractorman truck and RV on the left and @JAG1 with his truck and slide in camper. Guys are still sleeping in and enjoying the quiet out here.

It's pretty spacious, I like the tall ceilings in a 5th wheel also. At 6'3" I don't want to have to duck everytime I go inside. The wife loves having an island in the kitchen.

That is awesome. I'm jealous.

I have a few from the listing online. The wife has cleaning supplies all over inside at the moment. She is very ocd about cleanliness.

Looks great! We’re looking to upgrade in a few years. Once I retire.

Awesome looking RV. Let's see interior photos.

Finally the day came. We picked up our new to us home away from home. I have to say, it looks good behind my truck. It pulled very nice, I do need to raise my hitch an inch or two for clearance above the bed rails though. I snapped a couple pics once I got her parked in the driveway.

Heck, right here at home as of this morning April 18th, 2023, it is still SNOWING. Even considering camping around here before May is just a bad idea. Basically, instead of being cooped up in a 3 bedroom 2 bath house, downsize to a 296 square foot RV with a single bathroom and watching it snow is even worse. I know @JAG1 was talking about going for the camping trip over in Oregon but if I look at what is right here at my place, I'd have to say, "Nope." As for going seasonal like the topic says... If I'm in an RV park it's not very enjoyable neighbors are even closer than here at home where they are several hundred feet from me to just a few feet away. As soon as this snow breaks and my high country spot is not buried under 7 to 8 feet of snow (West of Burgdorf, ID) I know I'll be back there camping. No power, no cellphone, no internet, just peace and quiet.

Wow, beautiful veiw! But man is that expensive! The place we're gonna be is actually one of the cheaper ones around here but in my opinion one of the nicest also.

Storing the trailer there all winter for $75 is such a good deal. The campground we go to gets so much snow the trailer roofs could collapse and there is danger of avalanches, there are signs posted on the road. They will store your trailer in the town of Bridgeport during the winter months for $1.75 per foot per month, plus towing fees between the campground and town if you want them to do that for you. Your trailer would cost $63/mounth or $441 for the winter months plus towing. View looking north from the campground in May

We will put a deposit down in August for next season (2024) so we will have it as long as we want doing it that way. We can also leave our camper on the site through winter for $75. That way we don't have to tear anything down and move it. Just pack it all up and secure things for the off season. Some things will come home such as the golf cart and maybe outdoor furniture.
