Well here we are, getting ready for our northern odyssey. We are dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s on our plans as well as getting our new 2013 36-foot Sprinter ready. We have only had it for about a month, so are busy checking out all the systems making sure that everything works okay. So far so good.

Our first outing went without a problem, but on the second outing we were not as lucky as our fridge started acting up on propane. We made a quick trip to our dealer, El Dorado RV in Lethbridge. They got us right in and had it fixed in no time.
