In 2007 my stepdaughter went off to college and told my wife that it was time for us to get a life. We ended up joining a membership campground to stay in cabins and park model trailers they had. In 2008, Fourth of July weekend we were out near the road in our park model sitting outside watching one trailer after another pull in and my fiscally conservative wife told me she thinks we should get a trailer. After months of looking we purchased our first in September 2009 mainly staying at the campground and finally we took our first road trip in 2013 to Maine. She now questions why did we not do this sooner, on our second trailer and you can find us just about every weekend at the campground except for our yearly excursion for vacation.
