Headed home with our new 21

Camped out in Lynden in our new 21, trying to learn how this is done. What a great experience it was to pick up our new trailer. I've never been so happy to give anyone 30K in my life. I feel lucky to have one of these beautiful trailers made by such wonderful people.

Here are a couple of pictures for fun.

Tomorrow it's on to Long Beach for our first real day's travel.

Congratulations! Absolutely love your colors. Be careful, I think some kinda tiger creature has snuck inside your trailer.

You could pay an advertising firm a lot of money and they wouldn't come up with two better sales lines than that.
Hope you have many happy years of use with your Escape.'

This is her first trip and to tell you the truth, she's not to sure we are sane! LOL
She's been a great sport, not complaining, but not happy either.
I have been training her on a leash and harness while at home, but when we tried to walk her at a rest stop, she just crawled under a bush. I'm hoping she warms up to it, because we will start full timing this summer.

It's a custom choice, but the name is escaping me right now. If I find the name, I will let you know.

Nice choices. The Countertop looks like it's Formica Kerala Granite?

Congratulations on your new trailer! Love the photo of your kitty. We've been toying with how to take our cat with us; however, I'm not sure camping would be his "thing". That said, we're still contemplating .... (Not sure, either, that the dogs would consider traveling with him a good thing.)

Biggest winter risk heading down the West coast of the US is on I-5 at the Oregon/California border crossing the Siskyou mountains but there's generally a lot of warning if blizzards are inbound. Many campgrounds/resorts in the area if you need to hole up for a day or two.

I have been training her on a leash and harness while at home, but when we tried to walk her at a rest stop, she just crawled under a bush. I'm hoping she warms up to it, because we will start full timing this summer.
When I took my kitty Lucy on my motorhome rental trip last year she wasn't too interested in walking around outside if it wasn't on grass, plus I was worried some dog would run up and start chewing on her. I kept a harness, with a tag, on her the entire trip, just in case she did get out. She's also chipped, which any traveling pet should be, in case they get loose. She also got treated for fleas and ticks before we left, just in case she found any the few times I did let her out. And I also brought along a copy of her recent medical records in case we needed to visit a vet.

I don't plan to take my other kitty, Spike, outside when we travel as he's freaked out by new stuff. Plus, the worry about doggies.

Now, the most important question - have you figured out a good place for the kitty box? And how big is it? I was initially thinking of having a custom made box for between the bed and the cabinet, but I realized it's too narrow of an area for my big 16+ pound kitty (Spike).

Congrats on getting the trailer and having a stunner of a traveling companion (the cat ). Great fabric and bedspread. Safe travels home.

Ha, ha, ha, how true!
Great linens. Hope the cat lets you in the bed.

Hubby says someone put a cat in a cage on wheels and then the owner pulls it around. The cat is safe and can look all around and enjoy the ride.
