Hi everyone!  Given the number of familiar userIDs I see on here, an introduction seems a little redundant, but I figured I'd do one anyway. 

Our family consists of me, my wife and two boys.  We've been camping even before there was a family, mostly using my FIL's Class-B MH.  We bought our first popup (2008 Fleetwood Yuma) in Jan 2009, one week before a camping trip to Ft. Wilderness (Disney) in FL, and then proceeded to do another six or seven trips before calling it quits for the year in November.  Since then, I found a good deal and upgraded to a 2007 Fleetwood Saratoga, if you're not familiar with it, it's similar to a Niagara, just shorter (12'), internally rearranged slightly, and only sold in 2007 and 2008.  Here's my older son posing for a picture right after we got it:

Since we purchased the first pop-up, we've been trying to get out at least once a month from March until November, usually with one or two week-long trips a year, and before that, it was just a few trips a year when we could borrow the Class-B from my FIL. We primarily hit VA/PA/MD, but have been as far north as Bar Harbor, ME and as far south as Key West, FL and hope to get out west at some point.

I look forward to reconnecting to everyone that I've already met, as well as getting acquainted with those I haven't.

Jeff,
Welcome to the CanvasCampers.  :dance: It's been a little while but we've camped together a few times.  Gettysburg PA last May, Elk Neck SP MD the Oct before and Four Miles SP, NY at Niagara Falls in July 09.  I think we even camped together at French Creek a few times also.  Glad to have you join us, great looking camper.

Thanks for the welcome!  I missed camping with you guys.  We still went out something like 8 or 9 times last year, but the only rally we attended was the Spring Opener at French Creek due mostly to bad timing.  We're definitely going to try to hit more rallies this year.
