I totally forgot one of our main reasons for taking the RV on trips - our dogs! Bording or flying

cooties and bed bugs.

Nope, a campground is the best place to take your animals. And, they can't be left in a tent. Ergo,
an RV becomes a necessity. But, yes, it's nice to have a campfire to sit around!

And, to be honest, if I had the bucks I'd have one of those big, beautiful, diesel pusher
motorhomes! When I see my buddy back his motorhome into a tight spot with ease, after I've just
sweated bullets passenger-side backing my trailer into a similar spot, I get mighty jealous.

That works until you are in a *really* tight spot and have to jackknife
it. You could always get her a walkie-talkie if you needed to.

As long as she can see me in the mirror, she can wave me to stop before hitting something. I try not
to get the 'real tight spots'.
