pvstoy & DLN,

Thanks for the warm welcome/kind words!

Here's a fuzzy foto from Organpipe Campground that Susan took with her cell. I'll do a short write-up and add a few fotos to the trip forum when the camera and photo download software land at the same spot .

Happy Trails!

craig333,

Thanks for the welcome and good words on the pic. It was a beautiful evening. We'll get a little trip log and a few more (hopefully clearer) pics in the trip forum as soon as we can.

Cheers!

Throw in a run to a more developed area for water/propane/laundry every 5-7 days (when it's reasonable) and that will probably work just fine for us.

Happy Trails!

I can go for many days wearing the same outerwear, but I hate having to go to a laundromat just because I ran out of underwear.

Joking aside, welcome to the forum. This is a great group of people with some really fabulous ideas.

1 Short sleeve Arrow cotton shirt
2 Pr. Jeans
7 Pr. Boxers
7 Cotton T's

The wife and I like to get out and explore.......everything from museums, to photographing and crossing high passes in Colorado, to hiking/skiing/snowshoeing to visiting relatives and friends throughout the U.S. We use the truck camper so that we can avoid motels, take the dog with us, and go everywhere without the hassle of hunting up places to stay. We call it our freedom machine. We stay in refined campgrounds, unimproved campgrounds, wherever. The truck camper beats out any other mode of transportation for us. We have a 1990 three quarter ton Silverado with an eight and a half foot 1997 Hallmark Ute pop top camper mounted in perfect balance.

Only thing we would like to change is to trade the Hallmark for a FWC Grandby. Why? lighter, lower profile, stronger, easier to set up, better interior lay out, etc.

Anybody interested in such a trade? The Hallmark is a fine rig,,,,,just not our cup of tea.
