I wish I could help you, but I just took the lazy way out and rented an ECV at the parks the last couple trips. My dad was worried that I would try to walk the parks, so his gift to us for our trip was to rent the ecv. Good luck, and enjoy your trip.

Well with a TR this awesome, what did you expect??

I loved every page, so happy your first trip was so great, it sure looked like you guys had a blast!!!

Norm, you are a true photographer!!! Very nice images, and love the idea! Great to see you here, you should fit right in... LOL

Andrew, as I was reading along, I was thinking to myself, man, I have a nice big prybar, I would be snagging me a couple of those spikes!!! Then I see you got them all LOL. WAY COOL, I love it! I may bring a machete and my prybar and see if you missed any next time I am there.

You asked about my health stuff. Well if you got a minute, here we go. I had weight loss surgery last April, so I could then have my open heart surgery to repair my bad aortic valve and 6 cm thoracic aortic aneurysm. With the weight loss surgery, and had a pretty rough time with it, I ended up getting out then going right back in a week later to spend a week in the ICU with a pretty bad bleed. But all is well, I have lost 235 lbs so far, a few more to go... LOL Then back in Jan of this year, I finally had my open heart surgery, it went GREAT. I was out of the hospital in 5 days, and have been doing my cardiac rehab for a couple months now, and I am doing awesome. Believe it or not the open heart was lots easier than the weight loss surgery.

So glad to see your reports, you really need to write books, you are very good at it. Keep it up!

Mmmm love me some Yorkshire Puddings... you lucky dog, and yours looked like doom buggies, what a combo!

I like where this thread is going!!! All the fun stuff I can't have anymore.

Andrew, so happy to see you, and as usual, enjoying your trip report!!!

Oh yeah, I changed my user name, I am the camper formerly known as RvUsa, and EjmBibb before that LOL

Interesting first post..... Not much to do with camping but hope you stick around and join the fun of our Camping forum.

:welcome::welcome2:

As usual, not looking good for us at all, what else is new???  Was hoping to at least be in town for the weekend for something else, and stop in for the free food and beverage, but I seriously doubt it now :banana:

At first I thought, why would you want to kill a coral snake - or any snake for that matter (unless it's a python or constrictor) but then my coffee kicked in & remembered your beautiful little baby girl is a beautiful baby toddler by now and romping around the yard. A daddy has to protect his little girl!

I was thinking the same thing Deb!  I am usually a "leave it alone" guy when it comes to snakes, but a coral near a toddler is NOT a good thing!!  Good shootin' Tex.  :rofl2:

11/3 that's my birthday. I will be.... Old

Old is a State of Mind - I haven't been to that State ... yet. :rofl2:

I've lived in that state for quite some time now... :)

Works great, you can turn it up or down, now I am not sure how "low" he goes, but I don't see a problem..  :banana:

Coleman Road Trip baby!!!!!  Love it!!!  We use the griddle part for pancakes and bacon/sausage so we don't smell up the camper.  We use the open grates for steaks, dogs, burgers etc, usually the little bottle will last the whole trip, and it has the tray you fill with water underneath that catches most of the drippings etc.  We clean it best we can at the campsite, stick it in the back storage compartment, and pressure wash it when we get home, it is nice and clean then!!

IF you like shiny, then get the Paul Jr. designed one that he added aluminum diamond plate too etc, it is nice and shiny!!!

What's in our TT?  TOOOOO DAMN MUCH!!!!  It is crazy how much crap we take with us, some times we actually have to go out to the camper to get things we don't even have in the house!!!

According to what I heard today on the radio, and what I just looked up online, Johnny is going to be Tonto, and they haven't found the Lone Ranger yet....  I remember the story because they were complaining that he wasn't native american, so he shouldn't get the role....

I am sad to say it is definite that we won't make it this weekend.. :D  The whole flood etc just took the last breath of wind out of our sails...  We may try to spend a night in a tent here locally, but I doubt that as well.  :D

Take lots of pictures and have a virtual drink for me, I hope you all have a wonderful, and DRY time!  Keep us posted!

We called today, they still have water and electric sites, Erica is bounnd and determined that we are going to make it, but I am not positive yet.... to many ducks have to line up for me to say yes.  Keep your fingers crossed.

Too cool, I love it!

If a GAG is too much food for you (is there really such a thing as too much food?), you can also get a Lone Rider.  2 pieces of fried chicken (all white meat is $1 more), 2 sides, and a biscuit.  Now that is Good Eats!!  We get one all-white meat dinner and split it.  They usually give you two breasts with the all-white option. (No wise cracks, guys)

Don't you think I would look a little odd with 4 breasts :rofl2:

Deb did say no wise cracks GUYS, she didn't say anything about doodle.... :rofl2:

Those balls look downright dangerous!

Sooooo many funny things to say, but mussssstttt ressssiiisssstt thhhhheeeee uuuuuurrrrrrgggeee!!!

I GAG too every time I am forced to eat KFC....  :banana:

If I tried to sit on that thing, it would shoot out from under my fat behind and stick in the wall like a lawn dart gone bad!!!

I buy cheap thongs! :banana:

Just don't wear the cheap ones, they tend to bind more than the higher-end thongs! :wiz:

Doesn't matter what I wear, with an ass as big as mine, they all bind up.

OOOH OOOOH OOOOH, one of the tag fairies is gonna get you with that one!!!

I am usually amazed at the way people behave when it comes to personal space at campgrounds, I RESPECT other peoples space and their ears/eyes... etc  I make sure Matt knows not to cut through, to be quiet etc, but some people just don't get it.  I have had a few sites over the years that people tried to use as a walkway etc, lets just say, there are more than a couple fun uses for 30lb text clear fishing line!!!  >:D :annce:

:banana:

I have been called quite a few things in life, but don't think winner has ever been one of them.  :-\

Does that look like a speaker in there, maybe they open so the music can be heard, and when the parade is done, they close up???
