First trip in our new motorhome.

Hook up sites are nice and big.  Play area is great.  No swimming, despite what the website says.  The mosquitos were horrid!

New dinette for the Motorhome

The motorhome came with a couch and rickety table and two easy chairs.  With as many kids as we have, that wasn't going to work. Eric ripped it all out in order to put in a dinette and a couch.  Once he started removing things, it was apparent there originally was a dinette.

The new dinette was probably massively overbuilt, but was definitely sturdy enough for kids to jump all over it. 

















I ordered new cushions from FoamByMail.com.  They came in this relatively tiny box.  Once opened, it was all the cushions for the dinette and couch, all compressed. 








As I am writing this 6 years later, I can safely say that the couch never got finished. Originally, because we couldn't figure out a good design for it to open to a bed.  Then lack of time. Then, we just really enjoyed the extra floor space.
