YOU are NOT on vacation

If you can get into/out of campground sites you can learn to do the same at service stations where fuel is cheaper (although prices are GREAT right now)
Work together..check each other when setting up/getting ready to travel.
And LAUGH everyday....regardless of what happens cause you are RETIRED and FTng!!!!!
