RE: RV Hailstorm Damage?

We were in Colorado Springs last summer when they had a horrible 45 minute to 1 hour long hail storm with golf-ball size hail. Our vent fan cover in the bathroom took one of the golf ball size hail stones and broke but the other skylights were fine. I do not have a picture of anything other than the trash bag we taped up until the hail storm quit. This vent cover was on a brand new 5th wheel that we store inside so it was not old and weathered. The sound of that large hail in a camper was HORRIBLE.

RE: Dollywood and Nashville Campground recomendations

In Nashville, we just stayed at the KOA last week. We were pleased with the facilities. They have lawn chess and checkers, a lawn bowling game, horseshoes, nice playground, swimming pool and kiddie pool. Inside the office area, they have a pool table and two jumbo size connect 4 games.

RE: What did you do to your Toy Hauler today???

Here is a picture of our new seating.

That's a nice sized couch. We replaced ours with a leather recliner couch as well but it's not as long. I have room for an end table but I haven't found anything I like yet.
It is actually theater seating by Lane. It is a right armed and left armed chairs and 2 armless chairs in the middle.

RE: Ladder Storage on Dutchman Voltage

I leave mine in the Garage at home, I have no need to get on the roof while camping.
We used to do that, until we were in a horrible hail storm in Colorado Springs this past summer. Golf ball size hail hit our bathroom vent shattering it and our ladder was back at home. We worked on it from the inside but getting up top would have been helpful.

RE: Bath Towels

We use an over-the-door hook hung on the shower enclosure. This allows the towels to air dry during the day.

RE: How important is No Dogs vs. Dogs Allowed in Campground?

If no pets are allowed, we find another campground. I will not stay somewhere my pets can't go with me if I want them too.

RE: Are you a 2nd generation RVer? What was your parent's rig?

My husband and I both are third generation campers. My grandparents bought a motorhome in 1976 and my sister and I went to Florida with them in it. When I was a kid, my parents bought a Shasta Travel Trailer that we would take to the lake.
My husband's grandparents had a truck camper while my F-I-L was growing up. While my husband was a kid, he went camping in a pop-up.

RE: One license plate!! (long rant!)

We are from Missouri and were pulled over for the same thing in Colorado Springs this summer. The officer was very nice and explained that many cars with no rear plates are usually stolen. We explained to him that Missouri only issues one plate for vehicles that tow. He asked us to move the plate to the back spot when we could to prevent us from being pulled over again. He never looked at ID, registration or insurance. He was very nice and polite during the entire stop.

RE: BECAME A FOSTER FAMILY YESTERDAY/UPDATE WITH PICS

Oh poor babies. We had a red chow named Buddy for almost 14 years. He was the sweetest dog and loved everyone. We got him when he was 12 weeks old and lost him 3 months shy of his 14th birthday in 2009. The guy we got him from said he would be my kids best Buddy and that is where we got the name. He was the best Buddy to all of our family. I hope things work out for these two that you are fostering. Chows are wonderful dogs.

RE: What inspired you to start RVing?

We lived in Alaska. We were tired of sleeping on the ground in a tent and getting wet when it rained. We moved up to a pop-up, then to a travel trailer, and we are on our 2nd fifth wheel.

RE: Strained CCL

My vet called it a CCL and explained it was the equivalent to a human's ACL.
