It had been sitting at the house in Williams, AZ since Rod's grandpa passed away in 2002 and I can only guess that it had been a while before that since it had been used. Regardless, Rod's parents put a lot of work and elbow grease into it and now it is lookin' good and ready for a new generation of Becks.
As you can see by the interior, it is still hanging on to its 70's colors but we are working to change that.
We picked it up a couple weekends ago and while Rod and his dad finished some final projects, his mom and I made new curtains.So last weekend we decided to take it out for a spin and headed up to Haviland Lake north of Durango, CO.
Amelia was so excited to be going camping and even more excited to be able to use the porta-potty we have in the trailer. She loved going for walks, which consist of her sitting on her tricycle while one of us pulls her with a rope attached to the front.
Amelia also couldn't wait to go down by the lake but just like at the beach we could hardly get her to go in past her ankles. Caleb is our climber and wasted no time scaling the rocks by the lake (these rocks are not as steep as this picture makes it look).
He loved watching the chipmunks out the camper window and was happier strapped into his stroller outside the camper than being cooped up inside it. Rod and I enjoyed being in the mountains and some cooler temperatures for the weekend as well as seeing the kids enjoying this new experience.
