Well, here is my first post. Started out on Saturday a couple hours late and its off. The first couple of days it was raining and yesterday it rained all day long, sometime heavy. Makes driving really hard. So far over 900 miles on Betty (my RV’s name) and I getting around 15 mpg which is great, but its diesel and the price per gallon is higher than gas. However, one out of PA, the priced dropped to about $3.85 per gallon.
Roxy, adventure cat, has been great. When we are driving, she’s back in the, resting and when I stop for fuel or minor shopping, she hops up into the cab to look out at the world. She sleeps all day and is up most of the night. She has explored everywhere and now when I have the camper door open with the screen door closed, she sits and looks at the birds and squirrels.
I am going to have to get use to the shower, really small and as a big guy it tough to turn around. One modification I am glad I did was the toilet. I went with a Dometic 320 Series Standard Height with Elongated Ceramic Bowl, which is so much better that the one that the RV came with. When I get time I will post a video of all the mods to the camper.
Even with all the planning there is always something missed. I am keeping a shopping list of things I need, like a measuring cup or aluminum.
Here are some pictures that I just took at the park I am at, camped by the lake.
Off to Topeka tomorrow.
