      Had a treat at the hotel


      View from the hotel, town of Waterton on right. It is a"part time" town, mostly closing down in the winter with one road plowed

    These photos are the reason we're getting a camper in the first place. Great stuff and beautiful photos, thanks for sharing.

    I guess Walmart isn't so bad after all. After driving 12 hours and not reaching our destination yet, we looked up a Walmart, pulled in, refreshed our food supplies, and spent the night. See the beginning of this thread for a refrigerator update.

    Just FYI, you can get duct tape in all sorts of colors! I was thinking white, but they make pink, purple, blue... hehe. :wink:

    @Roamey, Thanks for sharing the photos! Just curious about the side cover though. Was there no screen on the inside before? Strange how the duct tape worked though. Must have somehow broke up the turbulence of the wind going through the vent.

    My niece told me there is pink camouflage duct tape!!  :lightbulb: Think of the designs you could do. The potential of the vent is endless!!! :lol:

    We found Wisconsin towns and Walmarts to be unfriendly to over night campers. We were turned away from three Walmarts and the fourth said we could stay, but the town might ticket us; they didn't. 
      Ericnliz - no screen on vent. I left the one I put on in place.

    Most of the Indiana toll road rest stops are closed and the road is clogged with construction. Traffic backed up for miles. Ohio rest stops are fantastic. Separate parking for RVs with electrical hook-ups, dump station, and fresh water spigot for $20.

    In the past we have gone to Acadia National Park in ME which is just a days drive for us. This year is Canada Park's 150th Anniversary and admission to the parks is free. I have heard how beautiful Banff and Lake Louise are and always thought someday it would be nice to go there. Now that we are retired and able, it was time to put up or shut up. We decided we would really prefer to drive and camp and finally decided the T@B was the best solution, giving me something easy to tow (with midsize V6 truck) and DW her bathroom. Once we got the refrigerator working, it was a beautiful, wonderful experience; even the long drive through new to us parts of America. Enjoyed sharing and reading all the wonderful information on the forum.

    Thanks @Roamey. Very different from our stop in September 1978. Couldn't see to the end of the car hood due to thick  blanketting fog. DH walked a few steps ahead and if I was still on the road tapped the hood and I inched the car 2/3 feet forward. I do remember the absolute stillness. Wonderful to actually see some of it!

    There really are sunny days there, hope you can try again some time. Can't imagine fog that thick!

    I love it @Roamey!! I've heard of "Bah Hahbah" and the Acadia Park, but have never been. Seeing someone else's perspective in the pictures they take is fascinating to me! I love the stone arched bridges! Thank you for posting them.
