We finally went Camping....

July 8-14, 2010

Last we week went Camping, Thursday we stayed at Jordanelle State Park. It was beautiful. We only got to stay 1 night because they were full for the weekend. Emilee camped with us, Jason, Katie & the boys came up Friday morning for breakfast, then they went fishing, while the boys played in the water. Later in the day we moved to Wasatch Mountain State Park, where we stayed Friday night. Shadd, Steffanie & Kenidee came up and we all had dinner. We had a great time, It only would have been better if Ben, Ashlee & Emma could have been with us. Emilee, Mark & I camped over night, we got to enjoy a great Thunder and Lightening Storm, and it poured. Saturday on the way home Mark & I stopped at Deer Creek for about 4 hours, and Mark did some more fishing. I just hung out in the motorhome, and read...that's my kind of fishing.

Sunday & Monday we spent at home, we had to fix a fuel leak in the motorhome. We got that fixed, so on Tuesday we went camping with Jason & his family up to Payson Lake.
It was beautiful at the lake, everyone had a great time fishing, riding bikes, playing in the water, feeding & scaring away the prairie dogs. It was nice to just get away and relax. And today (July 15) it was back to life as usual.

It's finally finished...Yeah

We finally got the Motorhome ready to go camping. There are a few more things we've talked about doing, like finding some hidden space we can use for storage, there's a couple of spots that have some wasted space, but these can wait for another day. So here are the before and after pics. I really like the way it turned out.

the storage bench works great, it's just the right size for the odd camping stuff.

Replacing the fridge... in the motorhome

I forgot we still had to do this...thought it wouldn't be that big of a deal. So we went and picked up a new fridge for the motorhome this afternoon, came home and at my insistance decided we would take that old one out tonight. Well this is what we found...



a huge bird nest, it went clear up the sides of the fridge and over the top, we found some egg shells in there too. It was pretty disgusting and smelly.
We got the old fridge out, after we tore it apart to get it through the door. Tried to move the new fridge in and sit it off to the side while we finish cleaning out the fridge space, replace the vent and repair the ceiling, yep you guessed it...more water damage.
Well needless to say the new fridge is about a large 1/2" too big to get it through the door. So now the fridge is in the house, I guess we'll try taking the motorhome door off tomorrow, to get it in.
Oh, how I love this motorhome...........but I don't think there are any places we haven't seen or checked out now, nothing else could be hiding in there. Hopefully the next post will be the finished project...I'd like to go camping next week.
