In 2004 we had our very first camping trip to Robbers Cave State Park in Oklahoma. We used the camper before on verious trips like to California to visit my parents and to Washington to visit the kids.
We also took a trip to Colorado to visit the wife's side of the family. But the first camping trip was to Robbers Cave State Park. Spent a week there and burned fifteen pounds off my Black Lab. Needless to say he was almost over weight. When we got to the park he was at 125 pounds. He and I hit every trail and at the end of the trip he was down to 108 pounds.

This was the first time I put the tarps to the test. They worked great. Helped the ac from working overtime. Even though there was some shade there was also a lot of afternoon sun and the tarps reflected the heat so the camper stayed cool. The Camper is a 2002 Bayside by Coleman. I added the bicycle racks at both ends so that I could have a place to attach the tarps. I also had to replace the filtered water spigot twice before going to home depot and getting a brass one. Had to add some reducers to go from the 3/8 to 1/4 inch tubing to use the orginal filter. I also found a pvc fitting to go from the drain to standard flex hose. I took a red adapter an cut the nubs off and used a rubber 2" to 3" reducer to make the connection. The sink drains better and I can go to a grey water tank or to standard sewer drain.

Here are some pictures of our first boondocking trip. My wife's sister and brother-in-law like camping in the nationa forest in Colorado (they are from Denver). They invited us up.

[image]

I had to get Honda Generator because the wife needs an oxygen generator to sleep. So this was a whole new experience for us. We had to top off the water storage tank because the only water there was at the stream. Might be good to wash with but not drink.

[image]

What was really neat was the next morning (being the first one up) I watched two moose walk through the camp. I also discovered that I needed to make sure the generator was topped off before retireing for the night. That way the generator would run the entire night. All I had for the load was a portable oxygen generator and the camper so I could charge the battery. I was only able to use the water pump for a limited amount of time. Found out later that I needed a new battery because it wouldn't hold a charge.

[image]

I did not bring the extra tarps because I was concerned about the weight and I did not need the ac because it was fairly cool up there. There was still snow on the ground, which helped with the coolers.

This was our second camping trip and our first boon docking trip. The generator worked great. My Brother-in-law said that there ought to be a way to add an external gas tank so I won't have to keep filling it up. So after I got back I checked the web and got most of the parts to make the external gas tank connection. The only piece that I need is the feed through to go through the spare gas cap to the generator.
