Well, we finally got to take the trailer out for its first outing this past weekend. It was beautiful out and near the lake.
After taking about thirty minutes to back the trailer into its space in the dark. We discovered that the power cord that came with the trailer was to short. Luckily we had filled the generator fuel tank and ran it all weekend. The trailer performed flawlessly the whole weekend and we are looking forward to our next outing.
Since the site did not have a sewage dump we had to dump the tanks when we left at a separate dump site. The site was not quite set up for a trailer of my size so we had to negotiate it as close as possible. We stretched the sewer hose as close as possible and got the sewage dumped. In the process, luckily everything was dumped and I was in the process of rinsing out the tank, my wife decided to help and she pulled on the hose to hard at the connection to the trailer. The hose ripped and she immediately tried to hold it in place so the water would still go to the sewer instead of on the street. Luckily it was mostly clean water with a few pieces of toilet paper.
All and all it was a great weekend. Now I just need to do the first oil change with the generator.
