We have had a great summer so far. I guess it is not officially summer, but just work with me people. First, we got a new (new to us) travel trailer this year. Please, please do not think we are the bomb. Let me tell ya' a little 'bout the ol' trailer.
The Hulk. As you can conjecture from the name, The Hulk was a beast of a recreational VEEhicle. Green. With orange cushions. Don't forget the sunny yellow countertops.
You may be saying to yourself "at least you didn't have to tent it you spoiled rotten brat." Touche. But, shush. Listen. There is more.... Seems there is some little somethin' in the water heater of a trailer that needs to be changed everytime you winterize the thing. OOPS. Nobody ever told us that. Apparently nobody ever told the old owners either. "What does this mean?" you may ask. What it means is that after about 20 years your water starts to smellin'. That stench is now transferred to your body whenever you shower or wash your face. Let me tell you, there is nothing better than gagging at the smell of your own face. It was time to tell The Hulk hasta la vista. I was actually a bit choked up as the new suckers, I mean owners drove away.
So we got ourselves a new 'un. LOVE IT! We took it up a couple of weekends ago to Strawberry Reservoir. It was awesome. We had room to move and everything.
Uncle Brian (Dan's brother) joined us on our little venture. The crazy man slept in the back of his truck. BRRRR. The girls were so excited to have him there. But poor, poor Uncle Bri. He didn't get a moments peace. The girls were calling his name relentlessly. "Hey, Uncle Brian," "Uncle Brian, watch this," "Uncle Brian, come in the trailer." Uncle Brian might have gone a little cookoo. Dan's dad and his "friend" (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) Kathy came up for a few hours too. Good times my friend. Good times.
I have some great photos, but I need to learn how to post them so they look better. Stay tuned...
