I'm AL and my wife is Sandy. I'm a retired Navy Chief and my wife (who's Dad was also career military) is a great supporter of the Military. We purchased a new Coleman Lite 23 footer last September. We are new to the trailer camping scene. We have got a lot to learn. We have figured out that my wife does the best backing-up with me giving directions. It takes us a few tries but we make it. We are planning on making our first trip in May to the Illinois State Park to get our feet wet!! We have been reading the different RV sites on what and what not to do. A lot to take in.
