Thanks, Adrian.

With the new production capability, and Escape's reputation in the industry, we'll all be having lots more Escape sightings.

Saw a 15 with silver graphics on Auburn-Folsom Rd in Folsom. Looked so cute! Would love to know if they were maybe at Beals Point State Park, or maybe just heading home.

Don and Teresa, It so nice meeting up with you again at Moñtana de Oro, CA, a stunningly beautiful place. Congrats on your upcoming retirement! Hope to catch up with you again on the road.

Today at about 6pm while out on a run, I saw an Escape 21 (quite dirty) with what appeared to be black graphics being towed by a white pickup truck in Beaumont, Alberta.

Red graphic'd 21 pulled by white Tundra at 7 Feathers gas. Looked like BC plates. Was going to say hi but he pulled a loop and headed North. Today at about noon.

At 2:15 pm today, 4/7, Debbie and I are speeding northbound on I-5 in southern Oregon (hell bound for Chilliwack) and spot a good look'n Escape 17 in the southbound lanes. What a thrill; our first Escape in motion. We were a little north of Grants Pass, and a little south of Sunny Valley. We were so shocked we didn't catch the tug. Good to see an Escapee 'Liv'n Da Life'.

This must be Escape Country! Yesterday, Friday 4/8 at 5m we were northbound on I-5 in Tacoma, adjacent to Lewis- McCord Joint Army Base. A large container truck partially blocked our view, but we clearly spotted an Escape 19 in the southbound lanes. It was a quick look, but the graphics were dark. Very exciting! We are staying with friends in Bellevue, WA for the week-end and will resume are quest north on Monday.

Lots of Escapes head South down I-5 after pickup. I wound up having to build a parking area since I'm only about 20 miles West of Portland Oregon/I-5......

You have driven more roads than I have. I do not recognize the state or whether or not it's the USA or Canada. I gotta get out more.

Talking to our daughter on FaceTime yesterday afternoon, she was stopping to pay toll eastbound I70 between Topeka and Kansas City when she said look Dad and showed me the Escape stopped right in front of her! She took photo but I won't post it as you can read license plate number. It's a 5.0 TA from GA, looks brand new, someone heading home from ETI?

Has anyone tried Boondockerswelcome.com? A video for it showed up in my YouTube feed. Interesting concept. I checked the website but there didn't appear to be many locations (yet) in California. There is one near our son's house near Walnut Creek. May need to check it out next time we visit with our escape.

This was started by Marianne and Randy Edwards who have Frugal RV Traveler. It is a download of free and boondocking information for California, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and possibly other SW states. We have downloaded them, at a reasonable cost each, for California, Arizona, and New Mexico. We found them to be very helpful and accurate. She includes the latitude/longitude, as well, and she responds to my emails quickly. We have received updates from her every two years. So having said that, I would venture to guess that boondockerswelcome.com would be a good addition to your other camping resources even though it may be in its infancy. I certainly wouldn't rely on it exclusively. Having dealt with her through Frugal RV, I would give it a chance.

So Deb and I are southbound on 101 in California, about 15 miles south of Crescent City. We are hell bent on Mad River RV Resort in Arcata. We've got our apt. with DMV Eureka on Monday, and need the entire week-end to get in the right frame of mind. A beautiful Escape 19 comes around the bend in front of us and continues northbound toward Crescent City. I'm honking and waving and the 19 is waving, and it was a 2 lane portion of the highway. The two beauties passed silently. Salute' to our unknown friend.
