Maiden Voyage

[Verle and Sue]

We have just returned from our first Big Sky adventure. Both the Big Sky and the F-350 behaved wonderfully. We went to the Washington D.C. area to visit kids and grandbabies and then took a couple extra days on the way home to just relax. On the way East we took I-70 mainly, but came back through West Virginia on I64-77. We had hills, city traffic, back roads, highways (some of which were better and larger than the freeways, which came as a surprise to us), tight turns, 8% grades, etc. We had a great time and were so pleasantly surprised to learn how easy and quick it is to set up and or take down the Big Sky. As you may or may not know, we are complete newbies to Fifth Wheels (our previous camping experiences were with a mini van and a pop-up). The only problem we're having is keeping the thumbscrews, that hold the light fixtures on the LR fan, in place, LOL. We seem to find them on the floor constantly and just look for them and replace them, now. If that's the biggest problem we have with the Big Sky, we're hooked. We enjoyed our time with the Big Sky so much we are trying to figure out a way to retire a little earlier than planned so we can use it even more. Thanks for all the great tidbits, information, suggestions, and encouragement we've received on the MOC forum. Verle and Sue C
