Sands - you dont need luck - youve got the drive. Ive always said I'll buy your stuff - just never got round to it. Keep talking and in touch sandsman - it'll be good to see when you are settled / or having a good one. Whatever. Lucky Bas**** Mark

Have fun Sands!Too bad they took the pics of your trailer off the site, wanted to show the wife! Love to be you, but I'd have to steal my grandson to take with us. If you can't haul all your rocks put a post up and sell what you can't take for gas money. Always got a few bucks for rocks!lol and catch a big one for me when you get there. Got to love that life traveling and ah fishing!

Safe travels Sands- If you get into trouble look for a club called Good Sam- there a group of campers who will help you out when in trouble (lost, broke down, whatever) Just take it easy and don't horse it- Most problems occure when the drivers are pushing it- nice and easy- works for woman (sorry that was bad) and towing trailers! also watch that awning this time of year- we had a family next to us last weekend that had there awning nearly torn off their trailer- In the wind you want to either tie it down or roll it up!

Nice scenery Sands!but shouldn't you keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road? Did you snap that pic with one hand, or were you driving with your knees? looks like your having a good time already.
