In late May, we decided to shake down our camping gear and try out a KOA campground in preparation for our big road trip this summer. Overall, we had a fun time and liked our "kamping" experience. We learned a few things about what we did and did not need to bring and about how far we may have to park from our tent site. We were used to state parks where you are basically parking right next to your tent. Not so at the KOA. We had to lug our inflated queen size air mattress quite a long way. So now Chris has built us a little gear wagon. :) We like gear. Even if we need a wagon to haul it! Anyways, it was also a medically interesting trip. Poor John had a fever most of the time and just laid in the tent sleeping or dozing. Virginia was not sick and was DYING to go swimming so the first thing she and Chris do is get into bathing suits. While applying sun lotion however Chris totally threw out his back!! He was in a lot of pain and also spent the rest of the day basically laying and sleeping in the tent! Hopefully none of that will be happening in the middle of New Mexico in a few weeks! Wish us luck as we cross 4 (big) states on our 14 day road trip to Texas!!
