Shake Down Cruise!!

The OHR gang is back in the saddle!  We took the new Outback on its maiden voyage this weekend, traveling to Chattanooga.  The van pulled the trailer over Monteagle with no problems, and we arrived at the Best Holiday Trav-L Park in East Ridge, GA by mid afternoon Friday. 



We drove into downtown Chattanooga on Saturday, and walked around the north shore a bit.  Rode the carousel...




Walked around the fountains...




And we enjoyed some snow cones too. 

We also enjoyed hanging around the campsite.  Here are a couple of pics of our new addition....Foofee!



On Sunday, we drove the van down to Atlanta to Ikea to get some things for the girls' rooms, and a couple things to prepare for the arrival of Anna.  All in all, it was successful first trip with the trailer.  We found a couple things to fix, but nothing major.  And we hit the Walmart to stock the cupboards.  Life doesn't get much better!

Our Holiday Road Is Back On The Road!

After an 8 month hiatus, the Holiday Road is back on track.  Bud and Shirley visited the Nashville RV Show last weekend, and purchased a Keystone Outback 301BQ travel trailer!  And so...the journey continues.









We hope to pick up the new trailer on Friday.  Since we used to call our motorhome The Holiday Road, and our towed vehicle The Holiday Toad...we are thinking a different name for the trailer.  Maybe "The Laughing Place".  But, our journey is still Our Holiday Road.  We hope to bring Anna home this spring (see Our Fifth Girl), and start our camping adventures again with her. 

Stay tuned!
