A few pictures of the new to me pop-up camper

It was an abnormally busy day for me, and I don't like busy days they interfere with my relaxing. And I especially don't like having to accomplish things when it's chilly and kind of wet outside.

I went to Home Depot and bought a sheet of 1 inch thick insulation foam for about 12 bucks, and cut it into pieces that will fit inside the bed of my truck to raise the floor of the bed up to the level of the fifth wheel hitch rails so now the, new to me, Palomino camper will sit level in the bed of the truck.

On the way back I stopped at Ace Hardware and filled up one of my propane tanks at $3.89 a gallon which is always the highest price I pay for propane no matter where I go.

When I got back to the house I had to get the chainsaw out of the garage and cut up some limbs that had broken off the tree in the front yard from the weight of the snow. I got to thinking that was the first time I've had a chainsaw in my hands in many a day.  It brought back long ago memories of cutting cords of firewood to heat my home every winter when I lived in the mountains. Toting heavy logs up steep hills, weeks of chain sawing and splitting, probably one of the reasons I have a bad back today. And I can't say I missed any of it.

Here's a few pictures inside the Palomino Bronco camper model 1251. It's a 2007, which makes it 11 years old but you would never believe it by looking at it.

two brand-new, two week old AGM batteries.

The mattress is still wrapped in factory plastic.

The toilet has never been used.

Dometic three way refrigerator that still has factory instructions taped In it

Remote control electric jacks on all four corners. I can't believe I found this deal, this camper is way nicer than what I thought I was going to be getting, and the price was less than I thought I was going to be paying for an old raggedy camper. I had already planned on having to spend some money on an old camper to fix it up so it would be usable, and this Palomino was less....Thanks Mike I'll be forever indebted.
