Hi I'm new!!

[Stella]

I haven't read hardly anything here yet,   But thought i'd pop in and say hello.

  I am Stella, married, 3 teenagers.
I drive a school bus, which means my lunch break is from 8 am to 2 pm.

  so while I was driving  my route  last week,  there's this  adorable little pop up  in someone's driveway that says for sale.
  i looked at it twice and bought it friday.
go me!!
 
it's a coachmen,  1999,  has a king and queen slide out, and th table and bench slides also.  a/c  heater,  potty shower fridge and they sold it with all the  extras in it.  pots pans  dishes,  extra lights, mosquito stuff.  everythign except for the linens.  it's in the driveway now, I have no idea what is next hahaha
   have no clue where we'll go next weekend,  not sure what i need other than sheets and pillows.
 my son is a boy scout one rank from eagle scout.
 he said he would take care of me.

did i leave anything out?  
well hello.  it's great to meet all of you.

Congratulation on your new camper.  You and the kids will have so much fun.  This is a great site to gather information.

Everyone has there "I can't live with out this" item.  One thing we use all the time is something to put your gray water into.  Some people use a bucket and others use a blue tote.  If you have extra cash, there are so many things you can get.  Another item we like is a nylon patio mat.  Keeps the inside of the camper clean and gives you a place to take off your shoes.  A colapsable  trash can is another item we use every trip.

Best of luck.  Remember no question is dumb.  You will get tons of advice from lots of knowledgeable people.

Welcome to this site and I know you'll have so much fun in your new pop up trailer.  Sounds like you hit the jack pot with it coming fully loaded.  Try a trial camp out in your yard/driveway and get the hang of how things work or try a close to home campground.  Thanks for joining in on all our fun and hope to hear all about your fun camping adventures in the future.
