Hello Camping World, Goodbye 450 bucks!

The aroma of Tacoma drew us in. Yep, that is right. Mrs DirtBagger and I in our preparation efforts spent nearly 500 dollars on random crap for our new trailer. What might you ask? Things like plastic wheel chocks and 4.99 each (gotta have 4 of them bastards) and a Woodalls camping guide at 12 bucks, a BBQ'er @ 100 dollars, special toilet chemicals, special toilet paper, special this, special that. Christ. Seems like in our feeble attempt to downsize and simplify our lives, we've just added another mechanism of complication.

Oh well, it's not the destination, but the journey, and we'll have tons of crap to leave as breadcrumbs for the return trip home. Breadcrumbs....Didn't Hanzel and Gretel get eaten by the witch?

Hey - "fun?" Great idea - sounds like something I'd like for Jack and me - sooner the better :)
