Well,
today was the day..
THE DAY!!
This morning we woke up,
knowing that today,
we would be sleeping
in our own bed,
in our new..
Montana 3700RL.
First things first..
we had breakfast
with some new found friends..
Neil & Nancy Savage.
We met them at the Tennessee rally.
They live near Hershey,
and are much needed moral support :-)
It was soon our time for the fun to begin.
First, they started installing
the hitch & brake controller in
the truck...
..while we got the walk-through
in the Montana.
We had a great gentleman,
named Jim,
who did a VERY
thorough explanation
of everything.
Including showing us
a drawer FULL of
remotes...
...for everything,
except flushing the
toilet :-)
Soon, we were shown
how to hitch up,
unhitch,
and level up.
Then they sent us on our way.
*gulp*
I was very nervous, but
George handled it like he'd
done it all his life.
We drove a few miles
to Hershey High Meadows Campground,
where we are spending two nights,
to get used to how everything works.
We put some things away,
made the bed,
and went to Wal-Mart..
(where every good RVr goes).
When we got back,
we fixed some dinner..
sat in front of the TV
and had a nice meal.
Tomorrow we'll enjoy putting
more things away, then
rearranging what we do have in here.
Tonight it's nice just to relax,
hear the rain on the roof
of our new home!
What a BIG step! I know you must be soo excited.

ReplyDeleteHEY! This is great news. I've haven't been able to be online much the last couple of days so I am playing catchup. We spent a few days at Highmeadow a few years ago. Nice park.
ReplyDeleteWe are in VA. Parked next to us on each side is a MONTANA. Parked across from us is a - you guessed it - a MONTANA. I suppose you entered the ranks of the biggest selling RV owner club. Enjoy!
Waiting to hear how those first few nights felt.
