Retired 05, I am in Shangri La next door to Fishinghat. You were just down the road from where the rig is parked. Have signed up for next Feb/March as January is spent coming down and extented stays at Edwards AFB, Parker and Q prior to checking in here. FIshinghat is here all three months. Headed out for the Grand Canyou, Zion and Bryce at the end of the month.

No wind here today Bob. It was a beautiful day for a bike ride.
Speaking of which, I finally broke down and sold mine. I haven't ridden it much the last 4-5 years since Laura hasn't been on the back for about that long. She got too scared to be on it thanks to a couple idiots that tried to run us over. It was a lot of fun while it lasted.

Sorry you sold your bike David. Would love to have one like that but unfortunately people want real money for them. I have been keeping my eyes open though and always hoping for a deal. I want to buy a CJ or Samuri for down here so another bike is probably not going to happen for awhile.

We are getting closer to rally time and I made the call to te resort but I guess they like to sleep and not have the office open late at night so will call again this morning. I m going to arrive a day or two early just to kick back.

Bob, I think they close the office around five or six in the evening. I called last night at 5:30, they were still open but she asked me if I could call back after 9:00 this morning. Let me know when you get registered so I can mark you as confirmed on my list.

Another beautiful day in the northwest, not a cloud in the sky and the temp is supposed to get into the 60's today.

I will probably be talking with you again before the rally, but if not give me a call when you get to the park. I think you have my phone #, if you don't let me know and I'll send it to you.

Later, Tom

Well,I made the plunge and made my reservations for the rally today and will be coming in on Thursday and leaving on Monday... That is if the TT will haul all the weight going home... We'll be in #174... That's for those of you that will be lining up for the show.. But then,she did say I cpould say I could also come in on Wednesday if I wanted to and escape the lineup...

Jon,

I think you're over rating yourself on showmanship. It wasn't all that spectacular watching you back in at Nehalem Bay. Yeah, ya did have to give it a second try or have that low tree scrape the top of your trailer off, but other than that, not much to watch. I'll bet it's all those eyes watching you that makes you nervous and mess up.
