Hitchhiker
Found this guy on the mirror of my truck this morning when I left for work. While it was totally unexpected, he managed to stay on the mirror for the entire trip. When I returned to my truck this afternoon I was surprised to see that he was still on the mirror. As I drove home, he moved from the mirror to the windshield and then to the roof of the truck. He remained there long enough for me to […]

On the Road Again (well, sort of :-) )
We were finally able to get the new fifth wheel out for a (really short) shakedown run over the weekend and find out all of the things we need for travel but don’t have (or can’t find).

Overall a great weekend (of course, my weekends with Connie are all great) – everything […]
