Chilliwack bound!

After more than a year of researching trailers, attending a rally in Pennsylvania and touring a variety of eggs, rendezvousing with Alf and Mary Anne in New Hampsire to tour their 5.0 (Thanks again Alf and Mary Anne), many telephone conversations with Kim and Tammy, and endless hours on this forum, we're packing our new Nissan Frontier and preparing to drive about 3400 miles to Chilliwack to pick up our new Escape 5.0 on Independence Day!

After a grand tour of N. Cascades, Glacier, Yellowstone, and Teton national parks we'll be back home in Rhode Island sometime in mid August.

Thanks for all your help. We'll let you know how it went.

Tim and Lynne
