Just a short introduction to say hi. I've been here reviewing campgrounds since 2008 but have not joined the forum so I thought I would correct this oversight. I'm Mike and my lovely wife is Pat. We have been RVing since 1973 when we went on our honeymoon in what is now called a class 'B' RV. Back then it was called a camper van and we toured all over Europe in it. It was a 1968 Chevy C10 van with an ice box (yes it used ice to keep things cool), Coleman white gas two burner stove and a dinette that converted into the bed. We put many miles on that van seeing Germany, France, Luxemburg, and Belgium. After that we tried truck campers but found them cramped so we got out of the camping thing. I continued camping in a tent and traveled on my motorcycle. I have camped all over the Midwest and east coast until 2008 when we bought our Beaver. We have since then traveled to Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho, Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Utah, and Mexico.
A little about us; I'm retired from the military and Civil Service and Pat is a retired school teacher. We are now in the year where we go fulltime and attempt to see the country we have just driven by all these years. We have two children and soon to be two grandchildren, our daughter is expecting a son in May of this year. We are currently living in south central Kansas but will be relocating for domicile purposes to Livingston Texas. We are members of the Escapees RV Club, FMCA, and Good Sam. I am a member of the American Legion, the American Legion Riders, The Sons of the American Legion, and the Patriot Guard Riders. So hello to all, -------------------- x];-}
