Hello all.
So, this is my first post even though I signed up back in 2014.
After signing up and lurking a few times I stopped getting emails from this site and kind of forgot about.
In the recent past I suddenly started getting mailers containing snippets of what is being posted and I started lurking again when I saw something that caught my interest. Never really had anything to contribute before so I did speak up even though I have found many of the commentary interesting.
But I have finally decided to at least do an introduction.
My wife and I have been campers for as long as we have been married - since late 1987.
We started out tenting for a number of years - I tented with my first wife from the early 80's until she passed in early '87.
My present wife, my first wife and me were close friends and tented together for a number of years prior to my first wife passing away.
Then in 2000 we bought a 12 foot Coleman Bayside popup camper and we camped in that until somewhere around 2012 at which time we traded it for a 29 foot Montana fifth wheel.
Then in 2015 we traded the Montana in for a 36 foot 2015 Grand Design Solitude which we very much love and are still using.
We tow it with our 2007 Chevy Silverado 3500 HD Classic body diesel pickup.
We live in the beautiful little state of New Hampshire and thus far, that is where we camp.
My retirement dream is the travel and camp every state in the USA.
And that's my story about my camping past and present and here I am. :)
Thanks for having us. We look forward to meeting you all.
