Golfers were traveling by our back view...waving as they went by....with smiles and thumbs up on our set up....
Our neighbors came by to takes pictures of us...(after seeing us take our own pictures for the first couple days...) we were Happy to have our Picture taken beyond arms length!!
A little Twister...anyone??!!After relaxing most of the day, we got Dressed to go the the Benbow Inn for Dinner...
Trout with mint pesto
Stuffed chicken with sun dried tomatoes
Stephen working on our last Breakfast for this trip...
All hitched and Ret-To-Go...
Stopped at Burlington Park for lunch...
Drove along the Avenue of the Giants....
And now we are home!
All in all...it was a Great First trip in our new Retro Shasta camper Trailer....It towed and ran perfectly....
The RV park at the Benbow was Great! Trails and paths to the river sides, and a Golf-cart Jont could be fun around the grounds! This time of year is warmer- as it is a little South...The kids are still in School and the rates for our stay with Full hook ups was less than $40 a day...
The park is vacant enough to avoid lots of people noise, the Freeway is far enough to not be annoying and the Inn is a short walk away. It's worth going for a drive though RV or a short weekend away in your Camper of choice....
I Rate this weekend and location a **** star. The rates go up in May, so make your plans before then!
We are planing more trips and will post as we go~!
And that's How I Love my Retro Shasta!
Thanks for sharing!!! I love Armchair Travel, I had a good vacation time, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellen!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing when I watch the Travel shows...It can go across the world and never have to book a flight!
Hi there
ReplyDeleteLoved all the pictures!!! I love your Vintage Shasta. I love the way you dress!! We are going on our first ever camping trip the first week of May, only 2 days though. Its still Chilly here in CT.
I love your decor in your Shasta. How did you get the chairs and table there? did you fit them in your Shasta? Love them. Love the red
have a great day. I look forward to seeing more of your Shasta and your camping trips. Can you give up a tour of the Shasta with pictures? What is the length? ours is 19ft. But its a Class C so that doesn't include the seats in front to drive in. Ours is super tiny but I love it
happy day to you

That is so great you'll be taking your Camper out for a trip...It's fun to play house away from the house! I love that we take our room with us!
As for the Chair set, we got them at K-Mart(on line)
