Camping
Yeah! I’m so excited. Yesterday an AA friend of my hubby’s offered us a [tag]popup camper[/tag] for $250. I thought $250??? I’ve been looking for two years for one and they’ve wanted nothing less than $1500. So I thought “ok, what piece of shit is this going to be?”. lol boy was I wrong. He’s just a nice guy getting rid of something he doesn’t use and doesn’t want to screw anyone. Its an older one but hey, he restored the entire inside of it. Very nice work too! The canvas’ are like new too which is amazing. That was my first worry about buying it that when he popped it open the canvas’ would need replacing and that can cost an arm and a leg. And actually they were like brand new. Need to fix only two things the vent in the roof that ONE screw is leaking from when it rains. And one 4 inch board that is the closure for the front where everything hides in while transporting. Other than that the entire camper is in prime condition. I’m so excited.
So now July 20th through 24th we are going [tag]camping[/tag]. We’re going to go to where I grew up most weekends in [tag]Wisconsin Dells[/tag]. I”ve said before we were thinking of going to Kalahari Water Park but now I think we’re going to stay at a camp ground with a water park save a few $$$ and be able to experience more of the dells!
Now to start collecting everything we need. Basically, just linens, dishes, cooking utensils. It’s already got the sink, stove, built in coolers and fridge in it. So it’s just the necessities I need to come up with. Since we got rid of my dad’s 38 foot camper all the stuff in there came to me. So it’s just packing it all nicely in the popup and away we go! Woot! Vacation … freedom … no computer (withdrawls!) lol
