Backpack Trip
Took a backpack trip with the Boy Scouts this past weekend. It was cold and I drifted to sleep in my tent each night thinking about how nice it would be in the Jayco!

You should have hired 3 Sherpa's to back pack in your furnace, propane, and memory foam mattress

I know where you are coming from, having been a Scoutmaster and then an Assistant Scoutmaster for the last 12 yrs. Sleeping on the ground in the wet and cold gets harder each year on these old bones. And our troop tries to go once a month all winter including an annual trip to Valley Forge in February. The -30 sleeping bag will never feel as good as the Jayco!

I'm still a pup to most of you... (40 years old) but the sleeping on the ground and in the back of a pickup is pretty harsh...



I'm tempted to grab some bedding fire up the furnace and sleep in the Jayco...
