In 2004 we had our very first camping trip to Robbers Cave State Park in Oklahoma. We used the camper before on verious trips like to California to visit my parents and to Washington to visit the kids.
We also took a trip to Colorado to visit the wife's side of the family. But the first camping trip was to Robbers Cave State Park. Spent a week there and burned fifteen pounds off my Black Lab. Needless to say he was almost over weight. When we got to the park he was at 125 pounds. He and I hit every trail and at the end of the trip he was down to 108 pounds.

This was the first time I put the tarps to the test. They worked great. Helped the ac from working overtime. Even though there was some shade there was also a lot of afternoon sun and the tarps reflected the heat so the camper stayed cool. The Camper is a 2002 Bayside by Coleman. I added the bicycle racks at both ends so that I could have a place to attach the tarps. I also had to replace the filtered water spigot twice before going to home depot and getting a brass one. Had to add some reducers to go from the 3/8 to 1/4 inch tubing to use the orginal filter. I also found a pvc fitting to go from the drain to standard flex hose. I took a red adapter an cut the nubs off and used a rubber 2" to 3" reducer to make the connection. The sink drains better and I can go to a grey water tank or to standard sewer drain.
