Steve,

Thanks for the invitation to officially become a RV Mutant. I will accept if you decide that I am worthy.

After rigorously reading the criteria for becoming a RV Mutant contained in post #1, I declare for all to see:

Things that I must have...An RV, preferably a DP;

Things I won't have and won't miss....a tank heater on the diesel cause I'll be someplace without snow and cold weather.

The best quality for a happy life for me would be spending time with family and friends, especially my 2.5 yo GD, mutating to all those future adventures.

Finally, The Journey is the Destination!

There you go...ready for the rainbow.

Hey, anybody with a good German name "diesel" is OK. Ya got my vote, and I'll bet we speak the same language. If the RV engine does not rumble, clatter, and rattle, it just isn't worth turning the key to start.

Welcome! When ever we decide on a date and place for our next GC (Grand Curosity aka rally) you may have to head up the Yurt Division!

Now that there is a excellent suggestion Tim... not quite as nice as your offer to "hold in storage" our extra cash while we are off full time for some unknowable period of time.

I've been reading this book... in my "spare time"...

Thank you for finding me worthy. I know it was a tough decision and I'm honored to become part of this auspicious (or was that suspicious ) group!

Thanks for the vote Moonrover. Only part German, the rest is Swede and Scot Hope you don't hold that against me I can speak diesel with the best of 'em and some other shop venaculars that might not be fit for the other RVers here.

I see the Yurt doesn't have any windows, oh well who needs those anyway, that's what the picnic table is for!!

Hope there's only a platoon and not a whole division....after all I thought y'all had RVs??
