First Trip with New Trailer

A successful shakedown cruise with the new trailer. Went to Lake Guntersville State Park where we went last August in our last camping trip with the motorhome. All went well. No problem getting trailer up the driveway and on the road. The campground is only about an hour from our home so it makes a good short term getaway. Did have help with Liz's friend Dan hooking up before leaving home, but Nelda and I got it all set up on our campsite in under 30 minutes. Not bad, though more involved than was the motorhome. But pulling the trailer with the Jeep was not bad at all. Noticed a little sway because didn't snug up the sway bars enough. Did better on the way home.

We left home Sunday afternoon about 4 p.m. after visit with Jamie, Wendy and two daughters. They came over from Atlanta for church and stayed with us for lunch to catch up on things. We enjoyed our day Monday. Went into Guntersville the the morning and did some shopping, then just kicked back with new book, several walks and fire ring. Liz and Dan came to the campground after work on Monday. Got there about 9 p.m. This morning we packed it up and left about 11 a.m. Got home no problem. Took a bit to get it down the driveway but went better than first time. Nelda and I did it ourselves and trailer now conveniently parked on driveway pad. Good trip, good time, looking forward to going again soon.
