Looking to make some memories !!
« on: May 06, 2016, 11:08:34 AM »
Hi guys,

Started staking this site a couple of days ago - a LOT of useful information. I plan to stick around for a while :-) and learn a lot of the tips and tricks that has been accumulated on here. At some point , hopefully I can contribute to the wealth of knowledge.

My wife and I decided that it was well and truly time to start making memories with our 2 girls ( 3yr and 4yr). We both have camped most of our lives, me from FNQ and loved bush camping and wifey from Brisvegas , but camped fraser/rainbow all her growing up years.. Some of my best memories as a kid was just running a muck camping. Fun from sun up to sun down....

We are on the hunt now for our first CT , budget is tight , but I am positive we will find something that fits the bill.

Thanks for reading, maybe well bump into a few of you over time ....

Jason and Lisa

Hey mate, you guys sound a lot like our little family!

We only just upgraded to a CT last year after spending years using a tent, best (camping) purchase we ever made!

We do a most of our bush camping south of Brisbane and are looking at heading over to Fraser later on in the year.

Thanks all... Can't wait. But we are finding the process painful.. (In a good way) just like years ago when we bought a boat, you look and look. Then you think for an extra couple of hundred in the budget you can get a little better. So you look and look in that bracket and then you think for a little bit extra I would be able to buy that CT with a few extras and around you go again. Before you know it your looking at a range of trailers twice your budget... Hahaha

Then a dose of reality hits you and you start the process again ...

Anyone got the lotto numbers for Sat???

Cheers

Welcome to the lifestyle many people dream off.  My grand daughter takes me on adventures of discovery, we discover new lands, new flowers, new animals. Life and camping are great, get out there and enjoy the life style and the experiences of your children
