Hello forum!

Hey there
we just bought a jayco, haven't even brought it home yet, and I found this forum.

My wife and I have been camping since 1997, started with a small tent, then a big tent lol. In 2004 We bought a Viking pop up and have used that since. Our daughter has been camping with us as well since her birth in 2009.

Last year I swore I was done with the pop up, so here we are. We went to the RV show in Novi, MI, and bought a 2015 jayco jay flight 267bhsw.

Im looking forward to our first trip, in May, and to being a member on this forum. I belong to a few forums and they are a great way to share information.

Thanks for taking the time to read!

Welcome to JOF and congratulations on the purchase!


There is something about camping that feels like therapy for our family. We are always counting down the days between trips. :-)

EXACTLY!
I grew up camping in a TT, so I have a tone of great memories. My daughter will as well.

With the new TT we have already booked more trips than we would have otherwise for this year. Including a fathers day dad/kids only trip. Cant wait for the season to start.

Ours usually begins with a memorial day trip and ends with an October Halloween trip...

Congrats on the new trailer and welcome to the forum! Moving from a pop up to a bigger RV can be quite a thrill. Have fun!

What Locky said X2. A lot of us Michiganders on The Forum. I'll be returning next month after spending the winter in the Texas Hill Country. Look forward to seeing you at one of the many campgrounds (state parks) in your area.
