I sweep the floor every evening and often use a paper towel with vinegar water to "mop" the floor with my feet. With 4 humans and two dogs, in most places, it's just not an option not to as I like walking around barefoot at night. Some places are better than others... We use a small bucket for the trash and take it out daily. Due to the lack of counter/sink space we pretty much wash dishes twice a day.

Thanks Sensi... I forgot to explain what leveling blocks were!! I also agree with the advice to take an experienced person with you. It could eliminate a lot of heartache. another suggestion for your skin allergies - Prior to the TT if we were driving to our destination, we have been known to take a sleeping bag for our son to sleep in on top of the bed. It gives another barrier between the skin and the allergy. However, it sounds as if your allergies are a bit worse than ours. The TT has really been a great way to control those allergic reactions.

Sorry I forgot to tell you about leveling. Leveling side to side can be done buy the driver but you would have to get out, check the level indicator on the trailer, put down the blocks, if needed, then get back in, pull over the leveling blocks, get out check the level indicator and repeat until level. Or you can order a teenager to get out put down blocks .... leveling front to back is all about lifting or lowering the tongue of the trailer - easy peasy I know of many people who full time by themselves who do it all without a problem. You will have kids to help you as well. Please don't g

If you truly want to take such a journey your RV choice is important... then again we are in a 40 yr old 27ft TT with no slides which sleeps 2 adults, 2 kids, 2 dogs. However we picked the TT long before we decided to hit the road. The road portion was just a natural progression for us. We bought the TT in order to deal with both food and skin allergies (son and DH are both allergic to scented laundry products. Son has to sleep in winter pi's every time we sleep at a hotel or end up in an urgent care center for hives) As for estimating stopping power, I am sure there is a formula but I don

Some random thoughts - The best piece of advise we got before buying was "just because you can tow it doesn't mean you should." It's not the towing power that's important it's stopping power... particularly in the hills and mountains. We are currently on an extended family trip, which has no end date, and are homeschooling. I would advise you to think very carefully about the type of trailer. do you want to use campground bathroom facilities? I hate walking to the bathroom in the middle of the night. eating out a lot gets expensive quickly with kids... how important is a full kitchen? ho

My daughter rode the Barnstormer with me. I thought she was going to climb back into my stomach through my belly button. Ever tried to ride a coaster while attempting to keep a child from hitting their mouth/head on the lap bar..... You just can't hold your hands up properly! Although she has promised to ride space mountain with me next trip... I"m not holding my breathe on that one.

I have to say after all your talk about MK late magic hours I want to try it. However, I'd have to go it alone as the kids can't make it that long yet. Then again I'd probably have to ride them all by myself as my kids don't like coasters!! How old were the twins before they started to enjoy the roller coasters?
