First two weeks of "camping".....

Well, WHAT a learning curve it has been moving into and living in a 5th wheel trailer. Can you say....downsize ?? We thought we had thrown and given away most of our worldly possessions but when it came time to move boxes from the storage sheds into our new abode, there is still TOO much. We are still unpacking and sorting and stuffing into remote recesses of this trailer skin. We have to do this in moderation as it really gets on our nerves to sort through "stuff" for too long so the hope to eliminate one of the three storage sheds will have to wait a tad longer (spring might be a good time).
As far as the "living" part of the day to day adventures of being in an RV, we've experienced tripped breakers (and trying to figure out how to reset them), frozen water (to be a topic of it's own some day), propane tank changeover 101 and a multitude of other things we've encountered. We've learned to laugh about these things and have decided that there is alot of trial and error to be had in this lifestyle....ain't it fun learning new things ?
We love our new house and it is so much cozier and larger than the itty bitty camper we rented from end of October till Jan. 2nd. The dogs have room to stretch out and they are so much more comfortable too.
