I forget our regional lingo is foreign to others. Reminds me of when our daughter went to school in Maryland and talked of vacationing in the UP. Her classmates had no clue where up was[emoji39].

On our way back from a day trip to Hatchers Pass, heading west on the Glenn Highway saw our first Escape in Alaska, (other than ours). A Escape 15 pulled by a white SUV heading east by Peters Creek. Scott

Scott, Lori and a White Schnauzer named Fritz
I like bikes!

I just saw a 17' (possibly 15) with a high lift axle, west of Lloydminster on the Yellowhead. I was towing a Trillium at the time.

Back in Merryland from New York. Thanks for stopping by on the Interstate and for your technical advice re the 2/3-fill in the fresh water tank. Made a big difference. Love the Mustang. Cheers.

19 tucked away on back street parking in Osoyoos. Small light coloured truck. As a guess they were having a Tim's. Saturday maybe.

That was us!!! We were excited to see someone from the other side of the country.
Hope you had a fun trip.
Travelling coast to coast is definitely on our to-do list.

Thanks- we had a great trip! We now have been coast to coast with our 19 and are very happy with how everything works. But we feel like we are just getting started- there are so many interesting places to explore- in Canada and the US- and maybe Mexico!
If you do travel east, feel free to arrange for a stop in our area- or yard!!

Jim

Our daughter saw a 21 headed south on US 59 near Splendora, TX on July 4th around 2:45pm. This is just north of Houston Tx. A rare site along the Texas Gulf Coast!

Yep, but not rare at all around early December (Matagorda Rally).

Donna's correct. They'll post there when registration opens. It's not as hectic as the Bluebonnet Rally or Pineknot though - you should find a space no problem, even if you register late.

Thanks! I will keep watching. We stayed at Matagorda last January. Quite windy but very nice. There was an Airstream rally forming as we were leaving. It's a popular place.
