Our Winnebago

Our Winnebago

In April of 2018, we joined the Winnebago family of owners with our purchase of a Platinum colored Minnie Plus 27BHSS.  This 32-foot travel trailer is a nice upgrade from our 28-foot Keystone Hideout 24BHSWE which was a nice upgrade from our 18-foot Jayco Swift 184BH.  In the post “Welcome to our Secret Hideout” we outlined the main reasons for upgrading from our Jayco, and in our post Hello Winnebago, we outline some of the reason we upgraded again.
