ebinmaine 67,423 #3 Posted March 25, 2023 Here's a few pics. Jim you'll recognize the yard in the first 3 I think. The Big Octagon tent ⛺ has been called Taj Mahal by our friends. We have a queen size mattress and two little storage units for end tables. 5 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 9,130 #4 Posted March 25, 2023 The WH tractor ramp, tent site and large fire pit resembles the one in our yard for some reason. @ebinmaine 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beap52 809 #7 Posted March 25, 2023 Camping at Crabtree Cove, Stockton Lake, Stockton, Missouri about 20 miles from home. These are a couple of Holiday Rambler campers. The white one is a 1972 that I gutted and rebuilt for our daughter, son-in-law and the three yea-hoos some 6 or 7 years ago. The cream colored was built in 1983 and I remodeled four years ago. The favorite thing about our camper for my wife is the mini-split HVAC. It does a great job and is super quiet. This year we have added two electric e-bikes that we hope to ride around the campgrounds and bike trails. COME ON SPRING! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Kennell 38,136 #8 Posted March 25, 2023 Sixty five years of camping on the ground under a roosting gobbler, To my 35 foot travel trailer camp on the Delaware bay. And every thing in between. A few of the pics. Sorry for the bad quality of the old pics. 2016 Big Show 2017 Delaware Bay Camp My 28 foot Mobile Traveler pulled by a 1976Jeep Grand Wagoneer . This was long before a Wagoneer cost $100K. Made several trips to Disney World. My Coleman pop up pulled by a Ford Bronco. Probably our greatest vacation. In the fall of 1988, our oldest son was junior at Penn State and we dropped our youngest off for his first year at WVU. The nest was empty so we kept driving West and camped for 30 days in National Parks and on open BLM lands. Yellowstone, Mesa Verde, Grand Canyon, Painted Desert, Rocky Mt. and many others. We camped in the 24 foot Cuddy Cabin on Raystown Lake and Delaware Bay from 2000 to 2010. After a week long bear hunt in Northern Quebec camping in an old abandon trappers cabin with no running water, I insisted all my passengers bath for the ride home. 1970 Almost forgot the Shadow Cruiser slide in truck camper. The four grandsons loved the cabover bunk and emergency exit. 2 1 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,834 #9 Posted April 10, 2023 It’s funny the camper isn’t usually the star of the show in most camping pictures… 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,834 #10 Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) The Imagine was great, but it was a bit cumbersome to load and unload. The Wolf Pack toy hauler has been great for that! Though it’s 3’ longer overall, we have feelings of shrinking most times, because the 13’ garage takes up a lot of the space we were used to. The first thing we did was to get new tires after purchasing it. Just make sure you get high pressure valve stems when you have a heavy load! On our way to the Big Show last year, we made it to Toledo before realizing that all our new tires were nearly flat. The weight of the full garage pushed air between the valve stems and the wheels u til they were 20-25 lbs I recall. I’m glad we stopped to kick the tires and find some rec fuel for the show!

Pullstart 62,834 #11 Posted April 10, 2023 The Hitchhiker was just that. We have some elderly friends who needed it hauled to Daytona Beach. Norman likes to haul! I can make time! Let’s go! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,834 #12 Posted April 10, 2023 This used to be home away from home. Until we realized we have a new travel trailer. Maybe we should travel! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,834 #13 Posted April 10, 2023 Just a few more… “Snoot” or “Snooter for short” (ask Grandma Sue, not me!) likes to camp too! Sometimes when guests visit, the camper becomes the guest house. My first experience hauling doubles. This was Grandpa’s rig in FL and he needed help hauling it home. Doubles are not permitted in FL, so he hauled it to the FL/GA state line and I drove from there. Lots of fun going through Atlanta during rush hour! We occasionally camp in the barn in the winter for a quick getaway! Our first camper, a ‘94 Damon Intruder. It was totaled in a wind storm due to the awning pole puncturing the side. To replace the side, the roof would need replacement. A 2x3” hole was a total loss according to them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
