this is definitely where fiends can be fiends--- welcome.

we took our cats in our truck camper with us.  they are gone now.  but, they went a lot of places and were very content just being with us.  the first half hour of EVERY trip-they would meow like crazy.  then they would settle in. 

in the truck camper we didn't have much floor space, so, their litter box could only go in one or two places.  it never failed at least once each trip the cats would go number 2 and set the monoxide detector off. 

thanks.. i know when i had the xray done - i asked if i could take a picture.  i didn't think it would turn out and it did.  i was so happy.  gald you liked it.

Here is a picture that not many have seen.  this is louise in fall of 2005-pregnant with her second and last litter.  duke and barkley are in this photograph.  i just don't know where. lol

if you look at the xray, you can see the skulls and the tiny spines, legs, etc.  i think it is pretty cool.

very COOL!  :popcorn:

great pics.. thanks  :popcorn:

they are.  we've been there and it is really a neat place to go.  they do a pony round up (in spring?) they auction off the babies to keep the population down on the island.  we went at christmas time and no one was there.  very cool pics - brings back good memories.  :popcorn:

what's a dvr??  i will try to remember to watch.

Adventure Rv in sieverville, tn-bought our truck camper.  great people, at least to us they were. 

Roskopfs Rv in menomonee falls, wi- bought our first truck camper.  our entire family have bought from these guys at some point.

Colrain Rv in cincinnati, ohio-bought our seneca here.  again, they were great to deal with.

Each one of these places were able to give a bottom dollar price - over the phone.  never had any haggling with any of these. 

there is also Dinosaur Monument?  Does anyone know where that is? we stopped and had a good time there.  i believe-not positive-that "sue" was found there.  you got to tour where the bones are found and see bones in the sand where they had found them.  i know it is out that way but, i am not sure if it was east of yellowstone or into s.d.

it was definitely a neat stop.

at the grand canyon you can take a mule down into the canyon.  but, know one thing first.  they are trained to walk on the edge of the trail.  they have fat bellies that tend to hang over the edge.  they do this so you get the best experience on the trail ride.  yeah, uh-huh.. not me- i will just take a walk thank you..

yellowstone-watch for wolf/grizzly spotters.  the folks with the big telescopes. stop and talk to them-if they have seen or have something in their view ask if you can take a look.  they normally have no problem showing you.  it is pretty cool to see grizzlies on a mountain side walking around or a pack of wolves resting in the shade.  they find what you normally can't.

custer state park has some tunnels that are a little tight.

we knew how high we were and which tunnels we could make it through.  it is a really cool park to stay at.  you can see mt rushmore from there, too.  if you look in the background, mt rushmore is right behind my family. 

if you go up through utah, go to the flaming gorge it is awesome.

alright this is not at the fort but the magic kingdom.  but, look at them-they are sooo good.

a nice long walk before leaving them helps a lot.  we used to draw the shades and we still leave the tv on.  but, we left the shades open this trip.  we bought a no bark electronic thing that sounds like a fire alarm when they bark, it has a silent button on it so only the dogs can hear it.  they liked looking out the window and i think for the most part they behaved.  at least, until they saw US pull up in the car or the golf cart.  but, they always do that-excitement of mom and dad being home.

we did try to leave them without the bark thing plugged in and our neighbor (bob) called us and complained (j/k).  so, we had to have him go in and plug it in.  but, we asked the neighbors (that we didn't know) if they were noisy or bothering them at all-they said they were fine.  i think it worked out and the dogs got to be entertained with the outside world..

you got some great pics-thanks for sharing.  :)

Here is our truck w/our lance camper in yellowstone.  loved that camper and had a blast out west.

this is the same trip at a national forest campground just south of jackson hole, wy.

still the same trip... but, this one is at the flaming gorge in utah.  one place that i would love to go back to.  it was very quiet at the higher elevation - most folks were camping at the bottom by the gorge/river.  it was spectacular..

so beautiful here are a couple pictures of the gorge from behind our site.

this was what we woke up to each morning..

great tr... the kids don't look like they are having any fun.. lol

we will be there oct 23-nov 2? i think.  can't wait to meet you guys.  we have a blast everytime we are at the fort.  missed last year at halloween but were able to go at christmas. 

lasagna with cut up onion brats instead of beef. mmmmm  good stuff.
