Listen loud and eat often
Ok, so my first "real" experience "using" my camper. Up until this point I had been limited to quick weekend trips to the desert.
Plan was to drive from sunny San Diego to Las Cruces on the Friday night before T-day then to Iron Creek Saturday to meet a friend and her dog (45 minutes East of Silver City, NM) for 4 days - never been there just knew it "might" be cold...
Drive went well - tested a neat trick on keeping the camper battery charged - ran a pigtail from the 7pin trailer connection into the camper - works well, for a $20 fix.
Weather was clear and cool - the final morning I was getting an exterior reading of 28 degrees (F) and there was ice in my collapible gray water tank...
Also took a side trip to The City of Rocks... Didn't stay - kinda think I should have - if only for 1 night...
Oh, here's one of the dog - he gets to sleep in one of my old sleeping bags.
Everything went fairly well until the drive back. My alternator began to stop charging (for the 4th time) so I had to stop and get yet another replacement (lifetime Autozone warranty - will look into additional problems ie. battery cables). In any case... Loved every bit of it.
