Meet Mira

You might wonder about that title...well Mira is our newest “passport to freedom” or “toy” or “home away from home” or our new Fifth Wheel Trailer. 

                 

Mira is a Grand Design Reflection 303RLS Fifth Wheel Trailer. At 389 inches long, she weighs 9,285 pounds, and is 146 inches tall. She’s not your typical “baby.” We took delivery on her on August 23 and since then we’ve been working hard.

With the help of Eddie, we unloaded the old RV to the new RV. It’s amazing how much stuff we accumulated in 13 years. We did not have time to triage the good from the bad and the ugly, so all of our stuff was switched over. The last few days we’ve been winnowing stuff. Boy, there was a lot of stuff! 

By last night, we could reap the rewards of our labor. So, that’s my feet in their best veranda pose inside the RV. As you can see we had the fireplace on while we were looking at a movie on the big screen TV. This is not your basic camper...my friend Carol called it a Glamper...and well...it is kind of nice!

This afternoon we decided we were 95% done with the switch-over. There’s a bit more to do, but we can do that in the next few days before we take our initial camping trip to the Tetons. So far, Mira has been a lot of hard work and a little bit of fun. We’re hoping that the equation will change to a lot of fun and a little bit of hard work. Keep watching for more info on Mira!
