So as most of you know, Mom and Dad (more Dad) are looking at getting a new trailer to serve as the new Cox family home base in Yosemite and other various trips. We all love the old orange camper but its getting older and becoming more and more stressful every year. Dad of course has narrowed his RV of choice down to one, which he always has an open lookout for. Well they came across a place in Utah that rents the exact kind that he wants, so they jumped at the chance to rent one last week just before the price goes way up for the summer "high season." I managed to snag a few nights of camping in Zion National Park (again, I know) for those few days. Mom, Dad, Jane and I made a quick and impulsive trip down there to test out the new digs of this fancy machine. Well, we were not disappointed. The trailer had everything from a flat screen TV, ATV storage, power slide outs, and Mom, Jane and I's favorite, great air conditioning! Since we could plug in at our campsite, we ran that air conditioner non stop on the government's dime! We loved that since it was about 90 degrees all day long. Dad however, felt he was in a motel six and was frequently annoyed with cold air blowing non stop in his face all day. He was outnumbered though so there was not much he could do. Dad's truck pulled it just fine and he enjoyed the al
most stress-free trek. We especially enjoyed the super easy set up as this trailer had power everything, no lighting of pilot lights, no cranking out an awning, no nothing! We are all sold on these new digs, now Dad just has to convince Mom there is sufficient funds, and judging by Mom's "Aahhhh I don't have money for this look," good luck Dad!
That picture is classic.....Love you Mom :) Definitley looks like a great alternative to the old camper!
