Just got home and unpacked from a very relaxed, family camping trip, really the first good weekend with our new camper. The weather was perfect and the only thing on my mind today was the chore of parking. Well, just before we got home, I took your advice and found a parking lot to practice in (coincidentally it was the DMV parking lot, ha!), goofed a few times and then did it perfectly a couple of times. So then I drove right up the the street to my house, let my wife out to hold traffic, and then backed in perfectly the first try! Victory!
Thanks again, so much, to everyone who gave me some pointers. It really helped. I can always count on this site. It's a Sunday so not too terrible traffic but, I found out after parking that someone had shot my wife a bird and mouthed "f-off" through the window. I swear my backing in took all of 3 minutes tops. Well, you can't avoid pissing some jerks off no matter what you do, and I thought immediately of all the posts from you guys encouraging me to fully ignore them. It's my road too! Thx again. And happy camping!
