Weekender for 5 - Went Camping

Postby Alfred » Sun Jun 01, 2014 11:59 am

Hey Gang,

Took the bunk out of the Weekender-for-5 and took the son camping overnight to Lake Powhatan, which is just outside of Asheville, so it was a local trip http://cfaia.org/lake-powhatan-recreation-area-campgrounds-in-north-carolina/. The slide-out bunk was a good design feature, because the 5x10 space becomes a lot roomier with the bunk out and 2 people instead of 5. Mama and the girls stayed home and had some Mama/Daughter time.

It is a lot of fun, just to pull the camper out and go camping!

Looks like you had good weather too. It's hot as blue blazes in the Piedmont.
