How it all started and where we are now?
As I face a new year I ponder on the past. My camping experience started with just me and the missus in a 9 1/2 vanguard camper and truck. Then two little ones arrived and grew . We picked up a 1976 20RG Minnie Winnie rebuilt it top to bottom , front to back and had an adventure. In 1996 we left when the kids got out school and headed south, through Yellow Stone then Mount Rushmore, south through Graceland and ending up in Kissimmee for the summer, short excursion into the keys then got home 3 days before school started, 7 weeks of RV living created memories for a lifetime. Then shifted from wheels to land via a lake front cabin. After a few years kids got older, found other interests, so sold the land and back to wheels for me and the missus. We started with a class A 34 foot Winnebago. After a few trips wife did not like the feel of swaying in the wind while driving, so we down sized to a 2010 28 foot Itasca Cambria. It did all we asked of it, towed our atv's,great to road trip with. BUT ! then with retirement looming and longer trips planned for us we needed more room and storage. Enter the 2015 37rb Seneca, I truly like this model and the floor plan works for us. I have had to do a lot of TLC to make things right. This forum has been an immense source of information and help. We have a big trip planned to be at the factory April 23rd then onto a trip south into Florida, back up through the west and home. So in closing I think about the path that got us here and wonder how others have progressed to their current RV. It would be nice to hear of some of them. To all have my JOF family have a very happy and safe New year's eve , may in 2018 we all have health , happiness and safe travels, Gord and Lady B
