I'm a newbie. HELP ME.

Back story: This is our 5th trailer. We have been Rving for over 25 years.

Oregon Coast, pouring rain. Backed into our site, leveled side to side, chocked wheels, un-hitched from the truck, leveled front to back, put down stabilizers, plugged in electricity, hooked up water, put out awning….started the slide out and realized we were TOO CLOSE TO A TREE!!

Had to completely reverse the process and re-hitch to the truck to move the trailer 6 inches back.

Got all set up again, and put the slide room out. Realized we were in the WRONG SITE!!! Had to move one site over.

Yes indeed, this newbie, provided lots of entertainment to our immediate neighbors.
