Not good at this but here goes. Headed out on Jan 20th at 3am for the trip to Sacramento to pick up our Ocelot . A little over 2500 miles, one snowstorm that held us up and 3 nights in motels we arrived at ATC on Tues the 23rd to have the camper installed. As soon as we arrived the boys dropped whatever they were doing and started the install. Less than 3 hrs later we were back on the road. Great bunch of guys as you all know and Marty did some last minute cabinet work for us as well. Without boring you with all the details we spent the next 30 night in the camper. 3 nights in California,18 nights in Baja and the rest making our way back home through the lower states. 13,600 km later( haven't converted to miles yet) we arrived home at noon Fri feb 23rd. Considering how un-preparred and under equipped we were for this trip things worked out very well. Really looking forward to picking up a fridge and doing some interior mods before our next adventure. Probably Nfld and Labrador this summer . When I figure it out I will post some pics of the camper. I would like to thank everyone again for answering all my questions regarding building the camper and a BIG thank-you to Jeff, Marty and the crew at ATC!!
Got our Ocelot home!
