Welcome Aboard Old Guy

Glad to have you joining iRV2 and congratulations on the purchase of your rig. We've got plenty of new members and experienced ones here as well so be sure to ask any questions you may have on your new rig. It's the sharing of information that makes this site so great.

Also, be sure to take a look in the regional chapters as we've got an area set up for discussions of group campouts and get togethers in each area. There's an area especially set up for our Canadian friends. Perhaps you'll find a neighbor is a member here as well.

Hope to see you posting often.

HI Old Guy,

What part of this wide large country are you in? - near me or way, way out there on the left part of the map?

How much spring have you got yet?

You're not going to believe this, but there is a 'correct' or more used spelling for Newfie. That's it.

Yes, there are a lot of expratriate Newfoundlanders and Labradorians in Alberta.

I'm still working. 22 months and 5 days to go.

Old Guy;

Welcome.........I think you will enjoy these forums. There is a lot of good information exchange here.
Watch out for the Newfie's, Right now, the are pouring their screech on the ice and lighting it, trying to get it to melt. They just want ( or need to travel off the "Rock"). They should come to Florida before the Snow. Happy and safe travels.

You're right rogueii, I can't go to Labrador with the TC until the ice is out of the Strait of Belle Isle!!
