rangered Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Hello from East Tennessee, My wife and I are picking up our new Oliver Elite II next week and thought this would be a good time to introduce ourselves. I have been retired from state parks for a few years now and my better half is planning to work a little while longer. We are new to RV camping, so we plan to start with some short trips and eventually work up to traveling across the country. I grew up in Middle TN, so I am proud to know that our new Oliver camper is a Tennessee made product. I have found this forum to be a great source for information, and I look forward to meeting other Oliver owners in our travels.

BlueHighways Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Welcome! We Tennesseans really need to recruit harder. The Texans are outnumbering us! Enjoy you new life in your new Ollie! Also, if you’ve been following the forum, you realize it’s a great place to learn and get answers. By the way, worked closely with a lot of folks @ TDEC so I’m sure we know a lot of the same people.

Moderators topgun2 Posted March 13, 2021 Moderators Share Posted March 13, 2021 Nice to have you here! I'd bet that since you must know something about the TN State Parks you also know of a few really nice "local" places to take that brand new Ollie. Let us know if we can help.

John E Davies Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Welcome, I agree about TN parks, they are nice, but it is too bad about your retirement... you could have moved here and fixed ours. 😬 John Davies Spokane WA 1 SOLD 07/23 "Mouse": 2017 Legacy Elite II Two Beds, Hull Number 218, See my HOW TO threads: Tow Vehicle: 2013 Land Cruiser 200, 32” LT tires, airbags, Safari snorkel, Maggiolina Grand Tour 360 Carbon RTT.

rangered Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 Thanks to everyone for the nice welcome! I've been very fortunate to have had a career in parks, now I am looking forward to spending time camping in many of them, and exploring what other states have to offer. BlueHighways: I am very familiar with Burns TN, being originally from Dickson. John Davies: I have visited Deception Pass S.P. It has a cool museum on the history of the CCC.
