I just wanted to put up a last minute "bump" and get the word out to as many people as possible. Last year we had 4 or 5 random Four Wheel Camper owners stop at the Rally with a bewildered look on their face. They have never seen so many FWC's in one place. They were kind of bummed and sad they didn't hear about the event, or they would have signed up for it in advance. They were just out wondering in the desert and happened to see our group.

Looks like I'm not going to make it!

Found a stray dog(!) south of Kayenta, AZ (near Tsegi, moreso) on the side of the highway two days ago and went to get her fixed up from a friend's house in Phoenix area. 

We picked up a bunch of food, gave her a bath, and have vet appt later today.

Hoyden, that's awesome! Looks like she's been without a good meal for quite some time! Bless you!
