First camp trip with TD

Last night we did our first overnight with the TD since we purchased it 3 weeks ago.

1) Bed- It came with a 4 inch foam bed and I add a 3 inch memory foam on top. I would like to find something with a little bit more bounce...With the memory foam just felt like one I was just sucked in..Its a queen size bed so I think I need to get
a cover that is full size because the over lap....Not sure

2) I used a charcoal grill but going to buy a propane one

3) We did a local stay so we did bring enough DVDs to watch movies... The day was cloudy and cool.....When we travel I am sure we will be doing more site seeing.

4) Need to get a boom box for my XM radio!

You may want to consider a natural latex mattress topper if you're not allergic to latex. They're more firm than the memory foam.

I ordered a custom sized 3" thick mattress topper from:

They also offer a 6" thick latex foam mattress:

Congrats! You have initiated an adventure...and it the summertime too! Just think, you've got the whole fall season to look forward to!

Memory Foam will freeze, become very cold and hard. Latex pads do not freeze! I enjoy the latex overlay on the bed.

Good luck,

Put the memory foam on bottom and regular foam on top.
In God we trust, shoot the rest and he will sort out!
