THANK YOU to everyone who shopped their areas of craigslist for me and for all the congratulations and well wishes!!! You people are responsible for me catching the camper bug..and Im glad you did!!
Yankees? YANKEES? What are you thinking????????
Im a bigger fan of Yankee's jerseys than I am of the team itself! I really dont even follow much sports.
...you'll probably want to cover the vent openings with a smaller mesh screen. ...
GREAT suggestion...I'm definately gonna get around to doing that soon, thanks!
Rog: Congrats on the new camper! I purposely stayed out of the ongoing discussion in the thread you had going re. your search. I tend to consider myself unlucky and didn't wish any bad karma on you.
I remember our first Coleman with many fond memories. May yours be filled with the same.
Now - Campout in Rog's driveway tonight - bring the cold ones since he hasn't figured out how to run his fridge yet!
Jim....your karma couldnt have rubbbed off on me...my bad karma is WAY too heavy for yours to have moved it out of the way!! Im still on the wagon as far as "the cold ones"...but come October it will be a completely different story!
... Now you can join us for July 4th right.
Ooooooooo.......I didnt think about that.....maybe so!!! I need to go check that thread and see if I can schmooze my wayin somehow!
Congrats Rog and Gina !! And family !!
Ya'll are gonna have such a great time in the new camper ! Ain't nutt'n like bring'n your own hotel room witt ya !
It's a pretty sharp look'n camper Rog .
Frank'n D.....I MISS YOU GUYS MAN!!!!!!
...
PS - glad to see that Gina is doing fine again. Was it her knee that she had surgery on recently?
Yes....and she has come along pretty well since the operation.....the first few weeks she was limping so badly that it was making her wholebody ache whenever she would try to excercise....her limp is hardly even noticable now, though. Thanks for asking
Dangit Rog, I thought we had a deal??? My truck and TT for your truck, payments swapped!!! Man, now I got to make this months payments
I am really happy for ya man! Hope you have many many great memories in your new pup.
Thanks John.....I could never even come close to affording your bills, brother!!!
... When I first bought my Coleman I thought the fridge was broken, but all I needed was some PATIENCE for it to get cold. And it DID get cold! Hopefully by now you've got a cold fridge.
You have me pegged......its fine.....It DID seem to take forever to cool off any, but its very cool now...Im not sure Id say its actually COLD yet, but it should do the job.
Congrats Rog I knew you would find one. Don't get upset when you have to fix something thats just part of owning a camper. Some times making the repairs can turn into great memories. Me and my dad a few years ago had to replace all the wood in the front half of his 1981 TT. It turned out to be fun
Michael....I agree....I dont mind doing a little work if something comes up. Im going to have to rig something up to level one of the drawers in it. It leans when there is any weight in it.
...dont worry aout it not being perfect..........ours isnt either, but we love it because its ours, and the best part is, no monthly payment!!!! Congrats again and enjoy!!!!!
I absolutely LOVE the NO PAYMENTS part!!!!
You guys rock!!! Thanks for all the encouragement and advice. Tomorrow we are giving it a good detailed cleaning and may go camping by tomorrow afternoon for its initiation into the family. Then I'll get around to the redecorating and fighting for my rights not to have it TOO feminized by the females of the house!!
I'm sure you and Gina and the girls will absolutely love it!!!
The tent can pull double duty then...but I guess you can forgo the hamper and just pile the dirty laundry up for extra comfort.
