Spring break week and we de-winterized the camper and headed to our local campground to get
the season started. We arrived at the campground without reservations which is not like us
and of coarse the office was closed. We were able to find a camp worker who contacted a person
in the office who proceeded to check us in.
Monday morning DW had a job she had to go on so she headed out early to get it done and get
back.It was overall a lazy day of riding bikes, hacky sack, we played a game of shuffle board
and just hung

out. We had a fire that night and marshmallows.
Tuesday's weather was going to be rain and we were planning on checking out on Wednesday so
we came up with a plan to go home on Tuesday and pack our ATV's on the truck and trailer and
get it ready to head to New Hampshire Wednesday and go back to the campground for Tuesday night.
It took most of Tuesday to get the ATVs ready but it was worth it.
We went back to the camper around 5:00pm and had dinner and a campfire. We also tried our new
washer and dryer we had bought for the camper.

The washer is old school but it does a great
job and holds more than you would think it would.
The spinner holds about half of what the washer
holds and spins the extra water out of the cloths. I hung the wet cloths on a bar across the shower
and the bulk of the cloths were dry by morning.
We headed out Wednesday and DH drove the camper and DW drove the car back to the house, dropped the
car off and picked up the truck with the ATVs that were ready to go. It was a great start to the 2011 camp season.
