That was me heading to Eau Claire for a couple of days,  Where you in your HDT, I am always looking for others but never seam to see many up in this neck of the woods.

We were coming out of Birchwood from an ATVing weekend.  We saw you go over the bridge as we came up to the on-ramp on County V.

Where are you based out of?

Met a  big red truck with an RV behind it on I 29 in North Dakota Saturday early afternoon. I had left Grand Forks, but had not gotten as far as Fargo. Can't remember the mile marker I saw. Did manage a late half wave. Was on my motorcycle with my new Hi Vis Aerostich Suit on and the Yellow Helmet if anyone here saw me.

We bought a lot at an airpark in Safford, AZ and have installed power, water, and septic.  We are now parked on it and will be here for the winter putting up a building to be used as a fallback plan if/when needed.  We hope to be back on the road late next spring.

CAVU!!  Have a great winter, everyone.

The balloon festival has been something we would like to try.  We will miss it this year because of my work commitment in Yellowstone.  Have fun!

I couldn’t get the link to open. But Fort Chiswell is right about where we saw it.

My apologies, I fixed the link so the photo is displayed.

Yep that’s the one I saw. Hopefully one of these days I’ll get my conversion done. There’s been a lot of necessary repairs that needed to be done.

My best wishes on getting it done... I hope all goes well and you're on the road with it soon!

Met a few HDTer's on the road last weekend. I waved and think I saw a  wave or two. My camera may have caught the view before I did while on the road. It's a long process to find since I didn't think to jot down the time. Will try to do so in the future. Just need to put a sticky pad and a pen on a string within reach. Anyone see me?

I have no current wife, and had limited female suggestions with the build of the Man Cave. Motorcycle rides in the "container".

Cool. Must have a nice ramp to run it up there.

Yes, it came with the first box that was on the truck. Have cut it in half now and half goes under the bike when it's loaded I have the other half at the side and am able to easily pin the two parts together. It was hinged for a bit, but unwieldly and harder to store between uses and for travel.  I have a winch with a trolley for the front wheel and pull it up. I used to ride up, but no more.

Sitting at Rolling Retreats getting some maintenance done and some other work I will reveal later.  Once I’m done here, I’m heading to the ECR (with a quick stopover to install some batteries and an inverter for a forum member on the way).

Wouldn’t mind some of your advice on batteries and inverters for our rig too.  We hope to stop by Deer Run during this next week for a night or 2.

As I mentioned in my solar thread, I am having RR install an RV Flex Armor roof on my 5th wheel.  It was prepped over the last two days and primed this evening (Thursday).  The actual roofing material will be applied first thing in the morning and once that has dried, all the stuff on the roof will get reassembled.  I hope to have it back tomorrow evening.  I am really pleased with the work so far and am looking forward to never having to deal with my roof again.  With all the various solar configurations and component movement I have done to my RV roof over the last five years, I figure I have added over 200 additional penetrations above and beyond what the factory did.  So far I have had no issues with it, but now it will be guaranteed for life.  I will show it off at the ECR starting the end of next week.
