Here are a few shots from our weekend at Pequea Creek:
There 8 more pictures on my webshots.
Wouldn't you know it rained up state and the creek came up about 6 inches before we left.

About 1/2 mile down the road there is a covered bridge you can cross over on. It was just a little on the weak side for our rig to go over.

I've never seen a covered bridge that would accomodate the height of a 5th wheel Mountain Aire.

Well my rig is 13 ft 2 inches and around 36K. I think the covered bridge was 11 ft 6 and 4 ton. It sure would have made a mess

Hi! It would have made for an interesting picture.  I like your latest pic crossing the water better then your old one.  Your toad loaded on, looks really cool. Paul

The inside of the rig did not get wet, the water was not that high. The truck boxes are water tight as well and nothing gets wet. I built the rig to be used not looked at and this was our outting for this weekend. We actually trudged through the water four times over the weekend. We had nasty rain for the next two hours driving home so whats the difference. If it would have been salt water I would not have driven through,thats for sure.
