Madien Voyage ac complished

The DW, daughter (age 9) and I just got back from our maiden voyage in our new 26 BH. We went about 20 miles from the house to Canyon Lake, TX. The TT was very nice and to our surprise everthing worked as described and shown. I only noticed a few cosmetic items not quite right which I can very easily fix my self. The slide on the 25bhs would have given a little more room which would have been nice, but I did not the extra hitch weight/TT weight or having to worry about slide problems/issues.

Being that the temps were in the high 90s low 100s the 15k AC sure was nice and was able to keep up with the heat. I installed a fridge fan based on all the post I read about. When we were leaving this morning I noticed ice building up in a few bottles of water. It is nice to know the fridge will keep up also.

Being so hot we only seen our daughter at dinner and time to sleep, all her time was spent in the water swimming and playing.

In our zeal to get out and enjoy our new TT, we both forget our cameras. We were a little bumbed especially when the deer came right up to us at our site. Oh well, maybe next time.

We hear ya with the heavier tongue weight which is the one disadvantage our year model. We too were glad that we ordered the 15k a/c. Congrats on a successful maiden voyage! What neat memories you all will have. About the camera.... Does your cell phone allow pics? Not long ago, DH and I were off somewhere and neither of us remembered the camera. After we left we realized we had the stinkin' cell phone which acts also as a camera *sheesh* LOL

We pick up our new 2012 26BH on Tuesday! Can't wait as we have been trying to get out from under the Jay Feather 232 for a couple years now. Finally made a deal at our favorite dealership! Congrats on a great first trip.
