On my way!!!

Hello everyone!
I can't begin to tell you how elated I was when I found your forum! I really do feel that, as women, we may run into issues on this topic that are best answered by another or other women who have the same interests. Also, I really don't feel that men have all the answers even if they act like they do . :lol: I have someone (husband and wife team) who restores older campers for a living looking for a good 'canned ham' for me and Lily, my Bichon Frise. They're going to find me something solid where everything works, put a cool paint job on her and set me loose to do the inside work. I cannot wait but want to make sure I am a 'happy camper' when all is said and done. I actually wanted something bigger than 15' but my tow vehicle can't handle more and not break down in the process. Took me a while and a lot of research to realizing and accepting it but in a few years when I can afford a better tow vehicle then I can 'up-size'. 8-) So much to learn and so many questions to ask but I'll save them for later! Thanks again for welcoming me into the group!

Well, mitch, you can call me Ruthie, if you like. Everyone else can too and sorry I didn't sign my real name to my post. I'll have to learn how to do a signature with pic of ms. Lil

Thanks so much for the personal welcome!

Thanks Melissa and Avalen! Wow, seeing all of these comfy rigs makes me think about future rides...lol. I'll start from the most affordable way for me and go from there. New adventures every day. So glad I have someone (YOU ALL) to cry to when I can't figure something out. LOL Thanks again for your welcomes and I will post pics. I promise.

Welcome to the forum. Sounds as if you have done a lot of thinking about what you want and what you can do to get started on the road....check out the members map ( and have your self added if you don't think we are too crazy!) The map will give you an idea of who is around you and those that pass by on their way north and south....

Hi Ruthie,

I love the canned ham travel trailers. They are so cute. Have you started thinking about how you will decorate?
