RV Virgins No More

It's fitting that we return from our first RV trip on Valentine's Day. Yes, we took the plunge and bought a 21 foot Travel Trailer last month. This was our Maiden Voyage and boy, did we ever have a blast! I can say this NOW that I'm home, freshly showered & shampooed, wearing clean jammies and working on my 2nd healthy-sized glass of Rogue Vineyards (Columbia Valley, Washington) Chardonnay. Mr itsme has a Tuscan-style tri-tip (white wine & rosemary) on the BBQ and I'm steamming fresh carrots & broccoli. Can life get any better than this? Only in California right? Holy Cow, it's 71 degs at 5:40pm. Don't hate me because I'm not shoveling snow!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

we in Vancouver are also not shoveling snow, but alas with the winter Olympics we actually need the snow.

Ah yes, lightly, we sent you our rain. I can't tell you what a gorgeous spring-like day it is here this morning (taking a vacation day to take one of my kitty cats to the Vet) but don't get used to it, we're supposed to get winter -and the rain- back by the end of this week.

I love Vancouver! Visited while on a cruise about 3 years ago, an absolutely stunning city. Reminds me a little of our San Diego just south of where I live.

We grill outside in shorts & tee shirts when it's 25 degrees. But of course we're a little daft in upstate NY. You know...frozen brain cells and all.

I want to hear more about your RV adventures.

we all want to hear about her adventure and while she is at it we would also like to hear about mr itsmecissy's adventure, because you can bet you bottom dollar they different.

Congratulations on the loss of your collective RV virginity! I still have mine, and given the apparent difficulty of backing a vehicle with a sizeable trailer in tow, I'm apt to be keeping it.

I am shoveling snow, but it would never occur to me to hate you for not doing so ... nor for any other reason. Now, envy ... well, that might be a different story.

It would be interesting to compare mrs. itsme and mr. itsme adventures. How about it?

itsmecissy said...

What is this, some kind of uprising? Mr. itsme doesn't blog (I keep telling him he'd like it).

OK, I'll ask him to write about HIS side of the adventure. Stay tuned.

Looking forward to the gender specific versions of RVing. I have a few and we haven't even gone yet. Yes, I'm still an RV virgin.

Dinner conversation at the itsmecissy house

Itsmecissy : my blog friends want to know about our RV trip
MR itsmecissy : your blog friends are idiots
Itsmecissy : yes I know but they don’t have lives
Mr itsmecissy: do we give them all the kinky stuff as well
Itsmecissy : hell no
MR itsmecissy: well then it was 2 days of driving with stops in between
Itsmecissy: we have to puff it up
Mr itsmecissy : what! Your friends too stupid to understand that
Itsmecissy : yes , but they live on every word I say
MR itsmecissy : well then you tell them your side of the story
Itsmecissy : they don’t believe me they want your side of the story
Mr itsmecissy : can I describe it in my way
Itsmecissy : hell no they may like you more than me
itsmecissy : you write it and I will edit it before I post it
Mr itsmecissy: I still think your friends are idiots
Itsmecissy : forget it I will just write 2 different stories, one as me and the other as a jerk
Mr itsmecissy : there you go ,now was that so difficult
