First night out

Here for our first night in our new Montana at Iowa's Best Burgers in Kellog Iowa, and yes there is camping here, been here a number of times.
Raining and has been for the last few hours of the trip.
You'd think I never set up a 5th wheel before. I feel like an idiot. Tried setting up the auto channel, three times, and forgot to turn on the booster. DUH!!!! It's going to take awhile to figure out everything.

That maiden voyage is always a fun one! You'll get it Dick and it will come natural as you work your way to CO. If you have any problems, you have our number and I'll try to talk you through things OR I'm not that far away for a quick road trip!
Take care, safe journey and we'll see you on the 10th!

Your finding both the joy and the stress of a maiden voyage. Good luck, I hope the rest of your trip is nothing but good memories.

Already smiling. Truck pulled the extra weight without a problem, it actually seemed to ride smoother. Wouldn't have been so bad if not for the rain. Didn't even put out the sewer hose, yet.

Don't feel bad!! After sitting in one campground for 6 months.. We headed to another campground.,, I worked on the TV and the antenna for 2 hrs.. No stations.. Only 25 miles from the towers..finally turned on the booster.,. That helped a lot!!!
