Picking up new camper tomorrow!

I am so very excited! We purchased our new camper in November and let the dealer store it for the winter. Tomorrow, bright and early, we go for the walk-through and then get to bring it home! Less than two weeks until our first trip with it!

I can hardly wait to get everything loaded in it. I will probably sleep in it one night next weekend to make sure I haven't forgotten anything important!

    Congrats! If you haven't tried Evernote, its a great app for packing lists. Evernote has a free or paid version.

    Best part is wife and I can add to and check off the packing list and the other sees the updates. We just log into the same account. With the paid version, you can share with others. I have packing lists based on the type trip: national park, day trip, weekend trip, beach, etc.

    that's what we did and I transferred them to a excel spreadsheet and now we have our "what we need to pack" list always !
