Caught the "Bug"

I just put a deposit down and ordered a 2016 Greyhawk 31FS with Crimson Black Paint design. I already made a reservation at a state park near Niagara Falls and I don't even have an RV yet! This is going to be a loooong six weeks waiting for it to be ready for pick up. I know I drove my dealer crazy throughout this process starting with a TT then to a 5th Wheel an then Class C, but I think the 31FS is the right fit for my family. I'm super excited to get out on the open road and meet lots of great people. Wish me luck.......

Congratulations on the new Greyhawk and welcome to the JOF.

So you really don't care about Groundhog Day... you've got 6 more weeks of waiting anyway.

If you are staying at 4 Mile Creek State Park in Youngstown, that is a very nice campground. Stop on over to Ray's Tavern about 2 miles away on NY 18, best fare around there. I might be there as well, just look for the guy wearing the pith helmet and bermuda shorts.

Yup, thats the spot (4 mile). I can't wait. I have never been out to see the falls. Of course I saw on the news that they are going to divert the falls to repair a bridge. Just my luck. Luckily they say that it will be a year or two before they do it........

Don't forget your passport. You really need to see the falls from Canadian side for a good view

The State of New York reported last week that the project of diverting Niagara Falls won't take place until at least 2019.

I check our roof every few months... you never know if the Florida sun cracked any of the roof sealant. So far no issues.

Congrats on your purchase from Northeast Ohio! 4 mile is a great park. When you drive over to the falls, park at the state park parking lot and you can park for free by showing your paid camping paperwork.
