Two in the Camper

👴👵 And off we go home to no power for 27 days and no potable water.  I suppose this was our first dry camping experience! To live in the camper - to survive in the camper.  Wow! Thank goodness we had the camper.  Bought one generator (and exchanged it twice), bought another one, and this was lifesaving as it was hot, hot, hot. We were fortunate in that we just had to replace a roof, our shed and all its contents, and clean the house and yard.  

  August 26, 2020 Mandatory evacuation for Hurricane Laura... Talk about leaving in a hurry!  Packed up a four-year old grandchild, headed down the road to Lampasas, Texas, with no provisions and no idea what we were doing. And the adventure began.  Arrived at a campground called  Our Friends Campground.  They were gracious and helped us out so much.  Especially as we were leaving on the Saturday after we arrived, backing up the SUV to hook up, and realized someone had stolen our hitch.  (Not at the campground - probably WalMart.)  So, off we go, again, but this time with two grandchildren (2 and 4) and head off to find a new hitch.  A seven-hour trip ended up taking 13 hours.  Needless to say, I wasn't sure I was made out for this camping life.  We had already run out of gas and lost the camper keys on the way home from picking up the camper.  So, we get home to no power, no water, almost no way to get down the streets.  ...

👀  On August 22, 2020, we decided to buy a camper after looking and looking and dreaming.  Off we went to buy a Jayco Jayflight SLX.  It was everything we wanted, and we were so  happy.  Fast forward to the beginning of the week with a hurricane approaching.  So, off we went at the last minute with no equipment, no idea how to do this camping thing, and no idea what was in store.  Little did we know, this was going to be baptism by fire for camping.  But, we were bitten by the bug and have continued our journey ever since.

If not now, when? Two campers who decided to go on a journey. If not now, when?
