The Cricket is Baaaaaack

:D :D :D
It's been quite a few years, but thankfully Ive managed to maintain Facebook friendships with many lovely people met on this site and at various RVn get togethers.
For those who are still scratching their heads and asking, "alright already...who are you?" - I'm Donna (Hubby is Willie). I'm a Navy veteran (10 yrs) and recently retired from 30+ years as a DoD/Govt Administrator last year -- Wahoo! Live in Southern CA surrounded by our adult children and our precious grandchildren.
Started RVing in 2005 when I purchased our 1st RV: 2005 National Seabreeze Class A. Had to give her up, but never lost my love and desire to be able to get back into RVing again.
So my husband and I bit the bullet 2/8/20 and just bought our first Travel Trailer...quite a difference from our 32' class A, but we are eager to figure it out and start getting out and about soon. Don't get to pick it up for another 2 weeks as they need to install the keyless entry and wireless back up camera. We purchased a 2020 Forrest River Rockwood Mini LT2104S.
Thanks to Sheilas prompting yesterday, after seeing my FB post of our TT, I am excited to find you all once again. Surprised to see my user name and password were still here. Wow! Guess it was meant to be. Soooo this SoCal, recently retired gal is overjoyed to catch up and pick your brains about do and don't as a travel trailer newbie. Happy to be baaaaaack.
:D :D :D

Glad you're back, Donna. And what a cute tt. Pick away. You know we all have opinions. :)

Welcome back Donna! That is a nice looking trailer! I have a little 14 footer and am now living in Indio.
