StarDreamers.us Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Good to see that class folks are still posting to the site. Will be in Florida at the solar workshop in January. It maybe of interest to others. Some fellow Escapees are putting it on. Information on this forum. Safe Travels!

patricia90518 Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 On Sunday (10/5) Norah and Howie pulled into Cal-Expo for a few days and took time out before getting completely set up to stop by for a visit. It was so great to see them again. Figured out that the last time I saw them was several years ago when they were parked in Quartzsite for an extended period of time as were Steve & Sandy. Both are looking good. We're headed out to a Mediterranean restaurant for dinner tonight.

marty cassidy Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 My bet is that a few in the Escapee organization might not appreciate this note: Evergreen Coho in Chimacum is now distinguished by being the most cannabis-friendly park in the system. A (legal) retail store opened at Discovery Bay this summer, just 6.6 miles from the park. Next week the store in Port Hadlock, only 1.6 miles away, opens up. Chimacum will be the only SKP park with such a distinction until next year when Sutherlin joins the list. Just a travel trip for those going to the PNW this year.... 2007 Arctic Fox Fifth Wheel 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD (Green) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norahg Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I used to wonder what the archeologists/geologists were going to imagine a thousand years from now about the pile of rocks that didn't seem to belong where they were. I suspect they would decide it was some sort of religious ritual! HeeeHee My experience tells me that they would consider that your rocks were valuable items obtained through a long distance trade route. They would consider that you might be a high status person to have such rocks. At least that's how we determine things like obsidian arrowheads and glass beads (for example) from the past now.

marty cassidy Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I stayed at Birdwatchers RV Park in San Antonio, NM. The owner is saying he's looking to unload the park, either sell or turn it over to a manager, to spend time on a Brazilian beach. It's a funky place, the owner is quite the character, and it's very popular with birdwatchers visiting the Bosque in fall and winter. I know several followers of this thread that are interested in hearing this. 2007 Arctic Fox Fifth Wheel 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD (Green) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marty cassidy Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I'm at Snider Hill, the small BLM site outside Tucson on Hwy 86, and thought this would be useful to those planning on doing the Escapade in March. The place was sparsely populated and very clean. A few minutes after I arrived I was paid a visit by the BLM LEOs who wanted to be sure I understood the rules. Once we decided we were on the same side we enjoyed a nice chat. They are taking an active interest (imagine that!) in the place and monitor it closely. The average condition of my neighbors is higher than what I've seen here before, too. Corner of 86 and San Joaquin, pack-in/pack-out, no services, 14 days. 2007 Arctic Fox Fifth Wheel 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD (Green) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana25k Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Well we are currently treading water in Raliegh,NC. Of course that's better than this morning when we were dead in the water!! Alternator died!! And of course its a big heavy duty 200amp.. But we found a great shop...Johnnys Auto and Marine Electric in Garner. They are rebuilding it from the ground up. Nasty ouch to the pocket book but we were able to get here under our own power so no towing involved and certainly cheaper than the price of a new one installed by the nearby Cummins service center. Even though its a small shop they are happy to plug us in to their basic power. Of course now the refer refuses to ignite on gas but that's a fix for another day.

nana25k Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 We are back in MS. Our plans were to play this month and next but our former volunteer gig at the Mississippi Sandhill Crane NWR in Gautier had an emergency need so we decided to fill it. We spent Thanksgiving with a group of Boomers at the Chambers Farm PowWow in Ft. McCoy, FL and had a great time. Highly recommend it to all. We are expecting Jim And Nanc for a visit today..have a personal crane tour planned for them. We are only a mile north of I-10 with easy access for a rig so stop and see us if you were in the area before mid Jan Ron & LindaClass of 20072000 Monaco Diplomat 2005 Honda Element"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are" Theodore Roosevelt"We can't control the wind, but we can adjust our sail""When man gave up his freedom to roam the earth, he gave up his soul for a conditioned ego that is bound by time and the fear of losing its attachments."

marty cassidy Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Greetings from Quartzsite. I landed today at the spot the class has used for the last few years. Here are the directions: Go to La Posa South off US95, check in, then proceed towards the dump station (1 mile). You'll see the dumpsters, and just as you reach them a road marked "Art & Jan". This is the safe route through Tidball Wash. Follow that road through the wash, past the saguaro. See the boat? Follow the road through another wash and bear left on good track, going around the boat. I'm dead ahead, look for the Arctic Fox . I'd say there is room for 12 big rigs, quite comfortably. 2007 Arctic Fox Fifth Wheel 2007 Chevy Silverado 2500HD (Green) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drpaintbrush Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 A reunion dinner for the Class of 07 is being planned for Saturday, March 14th after Escapade. Several restaurants are being considered and now we need to know how many would be interested in attending. Please leave us your name and how many would be attending so we can get a tentative count.

patricia90518 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 After being at Rover's Roost since late October, I'm headed out for the summer starting on Sunday (4/19). First stop is Freightliner in Tolleston for annual service for the motorhome, generator and car at a nearby Chevy dealership. Then I'm headed back east again this summer, all the way to Williamsburg, VA to help my sister and brother-in-law celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. Other stops this summer include a FCOC rally in Amana (Iowa), the FMCA rally in Madison (WI) and ending with the Adventure Caravan Chicago Rally and Route 66 Caravan Tour which ends in LA the beginning of November, just in time for me to get back to the Roost in time to present the Treasurer's Report at the season's first Roof Raisers meeting. Wishing all safe travels and a summer full of wonderful memories. Trisha Trisha Schmidt 2008 Tiffin Phaeton 2006 Saturn Vue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
