Annual Family Campout

The end of July we went on our annual family campout. We stayed in an RV park which ended up being a joke and none of us were pleased with it, that may be the last time we do that. I won't go into the particulars but I sure wouldn't recommend Riverside Resort near Panguitch, Utah. It took them 3 tries to get our bill right and their webiste makes it out to be much, much nicer than it was.

It was our first real trip with the camper and we sure were glad to have it, esp for the bathroom. The only bathrooms available at the camp were way, way, way across from us and so small that we would bang our heads on the door when we pulled our drawers up and down. The men complained about how bad/dirty their bathrooms were and would actually drive 15 miles to the nearest gas station when they had to sit down. Very, very, grateful for our camper potty that trip.
Once again we noticed how much warmer it is in a camper vs a tent (even our nice spring bar) and barely needed a blanket to cover us. Boo slept all night once again, which never happens when we are in a tent. We had a nice time and were sad to see our last trip of the season over with. We are much too busy and too broke to camp anymore this year. I hope we can do it a lot more next year.

We used the stove for the first time on this trip and it worked great, though I could see it heating things up inside very quickly. We also learned to make sure our gray water needs to be open to drain on the ground because the toilet tank filled up very quickly, in just two days. At least we found a free place to dump it.
