RV Show in Ottawa this weekend

[JJ_Spectre]

Even with the snow falling and the temperatures hovering around -2C, we trekked to the first RV show of the season in our city. Lots of contests and whatnot to enter and the kids had a great time looking at other trailers.

There was only one vendor selling accessories, but I was able to get a decent deal on a tote tank 25G for $160, (They are normally over $200 around here) and a mini roller blind for the air vent directly above our master in the TT for $10. I also picked up a 30A/15A pigtail for $15. None of those are great deals if you figure in the $33 I spent in parking and admission, but it did give me an excuse to pick them up.

I even started what I expect will be a long campaign toward convincing my wife to winter in a Class C when we retire. That's not for another 15 or so years yet, but I figure I should plant the seed early. 😉

Most importantly, it got me out of the winter blahs for an hour or so and allowed the whole family to get excited about getting out to enjoy the season as soon as it starts.

How long until May?

Be careful about going to RV show's in the winter time. Back in Jan. of this year the wife got the ideal to kill a Sunday afternoon by suggesting we go to the RV show here in Kansas City. Keep in mind i had planned on getting new tires and batteries too start off the camping season this year. Well we got new tires and batteries for sure, it just winded up costing me a bit more than i had planned on spending :h. We did get a great deal though on a Gray Wolf 26BH, now if it will warm up enough to try it out.

This past weekend's show in Montreal was incredible. Highly suggest taking that in when you can.

Skipped this one. Wasn't impressed with it last year.
