Dean; How y'all doing? I'd say we need to do some camping, but I am getting the pop-up ready to sell, We are going to get a toy hauler so we can bring the motorcycle along. We just got the new Dodge to pull it.

The GPS I am using right now is the Garmin Hand held E-Trec Legend. Very good unit for walking and works in the truck too as long as I set it on the dash for updates. I have not gotten the antenna for it. I am looking at the 2610 and 2620 for the bike. Both are made to work in the weather. Costco has the C330 for 600 I have not checked to see if its water proof or has a motorcycle mount yet.

Hope your Thanksgiving was great. and I will post as soon as we are ready to go camping....

What camper?? We took a 320 mile trip to Globe, Show Low, Payson and home to see how it acts. I kept looking in the mirror to be sure it was still there.

We can be ready with a few weeks notice guys, I am working Sun - Wed now so I just need to take a day off. Let me know where and when.

We just spend the turkey day weekend at Roosevelt Lake. The Grapevine group CG is fantastic. Cost us $25 for each RV for 4 nights. We're planning on a few days at Lake Havasu over CHRISTmas.

Looks like sometime after New Years, around the 15th we can get the new Toy Hauler. As soon as I get the exact date I will post it, and maybe we can plan something for down near Tuson for a weekend.

That's getting to be an expensive motorcycle. What kind of hauler are you looking at?

We are looking at a Desert Fox, only 17' right now. A friend has found a 2006 at a really unbelievable price, if everything gose according to plane right nowwe can pick it up around the middle of January. The exact date won't be final for a few more weeks. We are talking about stopping in Tucson on the way home with it. When the dates are set I will let you know and maybe we can do the get togeather down there. Its the model VS 17 GVW 7875. Its going to be a long month + . You know waiting on the new truck. To bad your truck dose not come in the Mega cab plan, wow what a differance in room.
Talk to you later.

I feel the same way. I went to a GEO cache site and found a cache her in the junction. I used it as directed and was able to find it. I lost everything in my old computerm so as soon as i get the next news letter I will post it for you or send you a copy.
