Andy and I decided to go camping last weekend Oct. 2nd and 3rd. We figured we would just drive and wherever we ended up that is where we would spend the night. It was a fun idea I made tinfoil dinners and we bought marshmallows and since we were taking Andy's parent's camper it wasn't going to be easy and nice and warm.
WRONG! We seemed to have problem after problem.
We weren't able to leave until late Friday night. Which was ok but not ideal. We decided to camp up
Tony Grove and then go for a hike the next morning to White Pine. It was good night we had the heater and lights going and Kira seemed to be enjoying herself as well.
We spent the night there. The next morning we discovered that all our leisurly amenities, like heat and lights caused the battery in the truck to go dead. (Not supposed to get power from the truck) Thankfully we camped in area with a lot of other people, but we had to wait 3 hours until someone could give us a jump. So we couldn't go for our hike because we didn't have enough time now and it was snowing.
So we decide to go somewhere else, only to discover that the trailer batteries don't have enough power. Because of this our options were either to have no power and to freeze, to have power and let the truck battery go dead again and then freeze or to just go home. Odviously we chose option number 3 and came home.
Well all we can say is that we never seem to have boring trips.
