Just saw a 2007 Grandby shell on a light gray Chevy regular cab truck parked at the plaza in Salt Springs, Florida. New Jersey plates. FWC classic!. Had a nice chat with the owner. He had bought it new in 2007 and picked it up in Wisconsin.

Spotted a trailer mounted FWC on Hwy 20 between Nevada City and Hwy 80 today.

I was being followed closely, so didn't get a good look at the tow truck.   Trailer-mounting your camper could offer options, if you were staying put for a few days and wanted to drive an unloaded truck.

Saw this one hauled-in on a flatbed. Sitting in a repair shop compound on Airport Rd. in Eugene.

Nice looking rig. I was sorry to see that it was possibly broke down. 20200613_144122.jpeg

Took a ride over Sonora and Ebbetts Passes on Sunday 7-26-2020. People and cars everywhere like it was a holiday weekend.  Saw several FWC's and waved at all of them. If you saw an old fart riding a BMW S1000XR in a bright yellow hi-vis jacket and a white helmet (see pic) it was just me saying hi.

Tuesday late afternoon 28 July, friends with a FWC were occupying a dispersed campsite on Monitor Pass in the eastern Sierra Nevada. A Ram truck carrying a FWC drove in, turned around, and drove out. A few minutes later the truck returned leading another truck in that was towing a travel trailer. They set up camp right beside our friends. Our friends dropped the top and left, saddened by such rude behavior.

 

Do you know these clueless people?

 

Clueless is a kind word. Julie always tells me to be kind.

I camped a few times in the back country of Montana with a good friend originally from cajun country. His sure fire method was to place a partly consumed bottle of inexpensive whisky on the most visible hood of one of our trucks. If anyone even came sniffing by, he would blast away at a simple target near our camp with a shotgun. For whatever reason, no one chose to camp near us.
