  1. I know you are Florida residents, we are also, but the Rio Grande Valley is much less expensive than Florida. The local residents really like us Winter Texans. Just a thought for your consideration. 

    Amazing what a difference from vacation mode to full timer mode. Congratulations on getting it.

  2. Larry that should be a good date. Are going up on the Cassair? And the next question is Bannf and Jasper on the trip North?  Br aware we got to Whitehorse on Memorial day weekend and tourist season was just beginning. 

    Enjoy,

    Bill

  3. The way the article read that the law was already enacted and the Gov wanted to toll all vehicles not just large, read trucks, vehicles. 

    Ah so they is hope yet. The roads in the northeast are major pain to drive on due to traffic load. Adding tolls to that miserable drive would just the topping.

    Thanks for the news.

  4. Sealand toilet water seal slowly drops through closed valve. Cause appears to hard water deposits at leading edge of valve at each side. V shaped about 1/2 inch along the edge of the valve. Visible when valve is about half way open.I am hesitant to scrap with metal fearing  ball damage and subsequent loss of seal.

    Thoughts and suggestions welcome.

     

    Thanks

  5. I will caution you that the major tourist attractions don't open until around the first of June.  

    Don't miss Chicken and Eagle along the Top of the World Highway. Yes your rig will probably be dirty after the trip, that's why they built wash bays. Smaller vehicles only to Eagle. Road is tight. Nice BLM campground about 2 miles west of turn off to Eagle.

    Homer and Seward offer city campgrounds right on the beach/water, dry camp mostly. 

    Take the road to Valdez the view in town is spectacular

    Just a couple of thoughts,

  6. We have not been overnighting at truck stops for about 4 years. Just because the truckers have to have a spot to park. We don't need to stop and park. With the electronic logging now in use the truckers need is more critical as there is no leeway for traffic or weather problems. Rest areas, Walmart, Cabelas etc or a quick overnight for sleeping. 

    We really try not to be in the A to B drive mode anymore. We can do that mode but it is no fun.
