Mid December it'll be 6 years since our 2006 pre fire was delivered. I have no idea how many nights and miles. This year it's well over a hundred night and probably close to 10,000 miles. 2012 promises to more nights and miles than this year. Wahoo.

Three years, eight months, 45,000 miles, couldn't count the nights...
Many, many wonderful memories, and wonderful new friends.

I may have posted this before in some thread but it's been 10 years, about 2500 nights and 100,000 or so miles. This year will be 300 nights, and 12,000 miles. Miles only include rig miles and not exploration miles. Exploration miles typically double the total number of miles driven.

This is a longer than normal year, most years we do about 210 days. The 300 year days are the summer travel years when we go to Alaska, Labrador or Newfoundland.

It is the life, only wishing I had retired earlier....

Got our UHaul on ebay too with a "Buy it Now" after discussing it 10 minutes. Got the Burro before that from ebay too by bidding more than hubby told me I could.

Not long enough...I look for opportunities to go camping every chance I get.

Example, this weekend will be my husband's birthday. Hmmm ... wonder if I get convince him that HE wants to go for his birthday

I can't seem to get enough........Seriously, 2 months, 1 week.

We found our U-Haul ct13 in August 2010. We took it to the NC mountains last week for our anniversary. My wife called it the "love shack" for three days.

Bought a 2000 Casita 17' in 2005. Sold it & bought a brand new Scamp 19 in 2010. Will keep it for a long long time. We are very happy campers.
I see a pattern of moving from 1 egg to another, as needs & opportunities progress.

Hi: All... We tripped over a Boler in 2006. Found a notice on a campground bulletin board, called next day, and towed home two days later. Third owners of a '77 13'er!
Met the owners of a new 2007 Escape and viewed it with an idea to order one in five years. Bought the viewed trailer in 2008 just eight mos. later, along with his pickup truck!!! How lucky can you get?
We had our first and last trailers in two short years and have enjoyed every second since...and hang the expense. DON'T WAIT FOR SPRING...DO IT NOW!!!

Purchased new in 1978 by my dad. I think in the 33 or so years that we've owned it I might have missed camping out in the trailer 4 or 5 seasons.

13 foot scamp purchased in mid-sept. of this year......taken two trips with it this fall. Much better than the ground or boring motel rooms. Am having an electrician put in an electric outlet on the outside of my garage which backs up to a large sheep pen/shed so I can check on my ewes when they lamb during Jan./Feb..
