Yes, it's official... we are camper owners AGAIN. After 5 years of window shopping, and saying this Play-Mor camper was our "dream" camper for "someday"... we finally bit the bullet and got one for ourselves.
It's been a LOT of fun to purchase this camper. Not that I'm trying to compare, but we felt like the whole process buying the first camper was like major surgery... we were fighting and pulling every inch of the way. With this camper, every step along the way was so EASY... it was almost a God thing... (well, probably NOT almost... probably, certainly a God thing!!).
Anyway -- we have it home, and have started to pack the cupboards and storage areas with all the stuff we HEAVED out of the old camper after it was totaled. Dirk got everything worth saving out of the old camper after the hail -- but it didn't get much further than our garage floor.
Now everything is back in it's place, neat and orderly!! I have to say, my favorite feature so far is the toilet and the shower... and of course the sink, with hot and cold running water!! I sound like a pioneer experiencing indoor plumbing for the first time!!
The only bitter sweet moment was knowing we really didn't have a since night free to be able to take the camper out this fall, at least as the whole family. We did try the heater out, and it works great... so the guys will enjoy a comfy hunting abode in November... but that will be just for Dirk and Justin, for this first camping adventure. Maybe the kids and I will join them for an afternoon lunch or something??
Needless to say, we'll all be counting the weeks to spring, when we can take the camper out for it's first Official Morrison family camping adventure!!
