Yeah, we're pretty wild and crazy that way. 
It was a beautiful ride and the trees are in their Fall colors, couldn't be better timing. We had another great day and got to Limon before packing it in. Tomorrow is Kansas, enough said!

Ranger Bonnie spent five summers as a seasonal Ranger up there. Still has the flat top hat hanging on her office wall. Loved every minute. In our dating years a half century ago we once rode her 150 Honda Dream down most of the east side switchbacks no hands on the handlebars.
True story!!! Kids those days!

Good to be home!
Got home today and it felt good after 22 days on the road. I've got a list going of the repairs/rebuilds for the wagon, but I've got all Winter to do them. She's still leaking coolant, used @ 5 quarts since I noticed it. Right under 5500 miles for the trip and no major problems that I know of. The wagon ran great and after Valley Hybrids put the new transfer case in, the overall ride ( noise and speed ) has improved 100%. I'm super happy with that one.
Test run for Alaska is complete!

Hey Bob,
I think right now she needs a redo before I take it anywhere. Not to mention I have to recoup myself and get caught up around here.

Thanks Gordon! We were on the move most of the time in order to see all we did. I didn't stay two days ( other than Georg's ) in one place for the whole trip. I was lucky the timing was right and got to hang with Pigeaten and the guys for an afternoon, that was a fun time.
I love my truck, but when I see yours, it makes me want to go throw rocks at mine.
You are or aren’t coming to SSS???

Right now I have to say no, but who knows how everything goes around here I might make it. I know Jeri is done camping for a while, so it would just be me.
Ditto... that is a nice truck.. high benchmark for the sty... for me scrapdaddy's got the multiple skill sets ad knowledge (along w several others here o mud) that contribute in a huge way to all the rest of us..
Glad you got back ok...
You sir have set a standard. Welcome home.

$5,000 and not a dime over!
Talking about that transfer case upgrade?

Yeah, I think it was breached just with fuel cost alone.
Maintenance and “necessities” don’t count.
