I hate to admit I'm a junker. Our 39' RV is full right up to max. GVW I try to carry and be prepared for everything.
I have reformed my ways somewhat. I only set up the outdoor kitchen if we are really going to use it. I no longer set up things when we arrive.
I have started to see the light that less is more. Especially when it comes time to pack up.
My new RV has lots of amenities on the inside which has unfortunately has cut down on the amount of time I spend outside. Don't get me wrong the new rig is great but it has altered the way we approach camping.
The new rig also has a feeble electric awning that cannot be strapped down as I did with my prior TT.
That means I cannot protect the outside patio area from wet weather as well.
This has led to a big reduction in my patio set up. I now only set up what I need.
I see the advantage of only setting up a table and chair vs. a full blown outdoor kitchen.
I still only cook outside, my Coleman Roadtrip has made a huge difference as well. It has its own stand. I can grill or use the griddle to make breakfast.
I no longer need a table etc. for my kitchen the road trip does it all.
In the end I still consider myself a junker because I carry it all with me.
I'm ashamed to say I have 4 TV's in my RV. Each person has their own TV including the dog.LOL
I am slowly changing my ways I seldom set it all up vs. always setting it all up!
My goal is to relax and do nothing.....OK very little.......
The next step to reforming my ways is to leave the junk at home........... Or at least some of it!
