I think that there are enough women here that camp without a DH or DBF, at least some of the time that we should have our own group.  What do you think?:)

DiW

I love it :D  Now there's a reason to learn how to tow by myself.

Long live the Sisterhood!  I'm in! :p

SheBantam

YEAH!!!  I'm in...Raymond retires end of the month and is threatening to start coming with me.

SheBantam

Ooops. I gave away the popup...so I cannot join.

Maybe we need to call it the sisterhood of the traveling campers, instead of PU.

I changed the title, I hope that is ok with my sisters.:D

I towed. I towed.  :-() I backed up to hitch up and let's just say, i stink at left foot braking. Chris was patient (by his standards ;) ). Started in the school parking lot and then hit the town roads at Chris' insistence. Wasn't what I expected. No biggie braking (was expecting it to be weird). Don't like how wide the trailer is. I don't even like driving Chris' Crown Vic. I prefer little cars so I'm not too crazy about going around right turns or past parked cars on these narrow side streets... didn't have it tough tonight. Next time I think I'll actually have to drive past people :D actually there was a woman out walking in the road and the crazy didn't even get out of the way. Luckily it was a wide street. Next time I think I'll hit the highway. Also learned how to put on/off the sway bars.

Congratulations Di!
 
Did Chris get the wiring problem figured out?:)

DiW

He ordered a new "relay" - I think that's what he said. Anyway, he's waiting on the part and then we'll see if he's on the right track. Hopefully later this week... so for now, I'm just taking right turns (haha) since it's the left blinker that doesn't work right. Everything else is ok. Did left turns in the parking lot.

Say hello to Chris for me!

OH DiW....the sisterhood is so proud of you!  You will be towing by yourself in no time.  Keep up the good work.  See you soon.

I feel like a big girl - just moved to training pants. Hopefully soon, I'll be on my own.

SheBantam

Thank you Tracy, now I feel more included!!

DI, I am soooooo proud of you...if you think the popup is wide, come down here and I'll let you tow the Bantam...and it is even 6" narrower than those Ants we keep seeing and hearing about.  

What is left foot braking? It is something I know I don't do...because the left foot is for the clutch or the floor and not a brake pedal.

Di you are a big girl. You have gone camping several times without your DH. You even camped without a TV.:D
 
You don't have to have a camper to be in the sisterhood.  Just camp without...
