A lot has happened since my last post

Just saying a lot has happened since my last post is an understatement. 

We went on our maiden voyage in "The Monster", our 5th wheel.  Memorial Day weekend we started out at the Colorado Campground just north of Woodland Park, Colorado and stayed there Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights.  Michael, Miles' son, and his wife, Jennifer, joined us for the long weekend.

On Memorial Day, we moved to the Kenosha Pass Campground and stayed there until the following Sunday when we headed back to Colorado Springs.

The weather was great and we really enjoyed the vacation.  Most importantly, we didn't kill each other.  Of course it was for only 9 nights.  Time will tell if we can make it for extended periods of time in a small space.  The Monster is 37 feet long and 14 feet wide in the living/dining/kitchen/entertainment area.  Entrance and bathroom are only 8 feet wide.  Bedroom has a slide for the queen size bed.
