New To Us 2016 550 Special

John and Christine joining the Camp-Inn world! Just took ownership of #0829 and waiting for favorable weather in the Pacific Northwest! Warm wishes to all.

 

Welcome!

 

Congrats and welcome!

 

Welcome from another PNW-er!

Happy travels and happy camping!

 

The bad news is, you now have a disease -- the good news is there is a cure...Go camping! Lets roll!

You're going to love it, this forum is full of good information...Welcome, don't forget to tell us about your adventures!

 

Welcome to the family.

 

Yeah, lots of destinations in mind. Unfortunately right now it’s still too cold and rainy. I guess we could go south to California. Warm and dry there.

 

I know that problem --- We're in the midst of a burgeoning spring --- we probably have 1 more light snow or freeze but the daytime temps are definately moving in the right direction. I don't know how much more of this locked up for winter I can take...

Our travels this year will be a little less --- a lot more local summer weekends. Badlands is in our future. We've been there before. I'm sure the trees in the black hills havn't grown back yet (darned chinese imported beetles) but its still an amazing place

 

General plan for us is local weekends through the summer, figure out what gear we need and eventually head to Utah and the southwest.

The 550 Special is pretty utilitarian so we’re thinking there’s a lot of KOAs and meals out along the way. But I’ll ask for advice on such topics in the appropriate subject areas of the forum.

John

 

Congratulations and hope you enjoy it!

 

Congratulations and welcome! Yay, another Johnson!

 

Welcome from another Upper-Lefter!

 

Welcome to the family. Make sure to call Camp Inn and get your ownership updated. We have a few more cold weeks here in Wisc. Heck it was snowing this afternoon.

 

I did a 37 mile bike ride today. 100 degrees. Not the smartest decision I ever made.

 

I emailed them prior to purchasing but hadn’t thought about letting them know we bought it. Thanks for the suggestion. It was nice learning directly from the manufacturer how many were built that year, etc

Wednesday I was scraping ice off the windshield and yesterday it was 75 and sunny and I was wanting to hitch up the camper and roll. But the forecast says rain and highs of 45 through Easter, and there’s this job where they expect me to come in and work everyday.

 

Thought I was done with cold weather gear here in SC, but looks like have it on for tomorrow’s ride. It’ll be million degrees soon enough.

 

Yep, it’s gonna be a chilly 48 degrees near Lakeland Florida Saturday night!

 

35 and tomorrow only gets to 55 with a lot of wind.

 

Welcome
