Looking forward to your trip reports, Jeff. It'll be a while before the Egg Nest gets out -- starting to snow here right now. Sigh.

We're jealous, you're going camping, and we're still dealing with snow in BC. But we are getting ready!

Saturday we're taking our Escape in for some minor warranty work and some up grades. Next is adjusting he brakes and repacking the wheel bearings. The last task is the Spring cleaning. Planning to do some camping in April.

Happy Travels to everybody!

Have a great time Jeff. Here is Wisconsin the closest to camping in Blue was running over the extension cord to the battery maintainer with my snow blower. I forgot it was under the snow lying across the driveway. Amazing how much damage a 14 gauge extension cord can do to a snow blower......

Jeff, are you in the Bay Area? We are down in Escondido and plan to camp the Anza Borrego desert next weekend. The forecast is for the highs around 81F and lows 52F...Maybe we can hook up some time. We really enjoy the California Central Coast area from Santa Barbara up to Monterrey...wine tasting, small seaport villages, beautiful beaches, winding mountain roads and fishing here and there...maybe a tandem mountain bike tour across the golden gate Bridge to Sausalito and a ferry ride back!...
