Camper

Amazing how a mind can change.

Gary and I started our camping experience in a tent. From there we went to a pop-up to a hard sided pop-up to an airstream.

We used each of these but a very  few times and than sold them. That was enough for me. We were not campers. The idea of camping was better than the actual thing. As far as I was concerned there were to be NO MORE CAMPERS!

Knowing that Gary did not feel as strongly about this as I did he continued to search the Internet to find the dream camper.

Then we retired. 

As we became more settled in our new home and getting comfortable with retirement unaware I was getting more interested in looking at what Gary was looking for......a pop-up. Yes, we have gone full circle.

Pop -up now purchased. Beautiful,comfortable and easy to maneuver.

This could be the one . Hopes are high  and yes, one can change their mind even when they think it never possible.

THE SEARCH IS ON

We have been looking for a fold up camper for some time. It seemed the best deals were around the Denver area. So on July 21 2013 we were on our way.

On Monday we went to Littleton to see the first camper. Had a great visit with the owner. A interesting  guy who enjoyed making improvements that would best fit his needs which were not necessarily ours.....and the price a little high. Telling Dan we had an appointment at 1:00 to look at another we were on our way.

Next we drove to Longmont and there we found our sweet little camper.


It took us most of the afternoon to close the deal. Sue had bought the camper in 2007. It was like brand new, even still had the "new" smell. She had used it several times and loved it. It was just time for her to let it go. Because there were things that needed to be done in connecting the lights we said goodby until tomorrow and went back to our motel closer to Denver.

Tuesday bright and early we were back In Longmont. We had made several trips to Camp World the day before. In knowing this was our last trip,hopefully, we said goodbye to Sue for the last time pulling our little camper

All went well at Camp World. Terry whose job was just to help out as people came in with questions was very helpful We knew we wanted a Good Sam's directory but were always were told they were sold out. Our new found friend Terry came through for us and found one. With a new camper, a 2013 GS directory and new membership with Good Sam plus a coupon for one night of camping we were truly happy campers.
