[QUOTE="MO_cows, post: 861039, member: 9169"] Over the holiday weekend, we went camping and ATV riding with a family group. We had 3 generations of cousins there, and everybody was related. I feel blessed that our family spends time together and are friends, too. Anyways, this is our new (to us) camper. We bought a big 'un because we plan to live in this thing next year and build a new house. It was VERY comfortable for the weekend so hopefully we can handle it for a few months. [img]http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv350/bozleez/100_1862.jpg[/img] We had 4 ATV's in our group.

Old "Barn Fresh" hadn't been out of the barn since the last time the cows got out, 2009 maybe. It started right up with a battery charge and even though it was the oldest and smallest unit we saw on the trails all weekend, it went everywhere the bigger, fancier ones went and kept up even with a double load. [img]http://i698.photobucket.com/albums/vv350/bozleez/100_1857.jpg[/img] We had 2 RV's and 3 tents for the group. There was me and my better half (what a shame, a 37 foot RV and only one bed. smirk), hubby's cousin with his wife and their son; our son with his wife and their daughter, our nephew and his son, and cuz's wife's sister and her hubby.
