You know you are a geezer when you start living life amplified. Finally got my hearing aids. Mrs. Ted is going to enjoy this the most. She didn't have to tell me the blinker was on once this weekend. Turns out they make a noise when they are on. Who knew?

Like others have said, the propane lasts a long time, so if you have to switch tanks you don't have to worry about finding a place to refill the empty one right away. However, I do like to know at the start of a trip approximately how much I have in the current tank. So I use the scale method...

No kidding. I was sure I missed the obit. Good to hear from you Marc. Looking forward to seeing this project. Just curious - after four different brands of pop-up campers, what is your reasoning to go to a whole new platform?

All, just a note as to why some posts in this thread have been hidden. WTW is a website about camping. The owners want to keep things friendly here. To that end, not only has some of the negative posts on this thread been hidden, so has a post that was positive about the manufacturer and...

Horrible news. Really hope it is found soon and all gear is recovered.

Thanks for the nice comments. BTW, almost all photos are Mrs. Ted's work. Unfortunately I have not been able to get any Pliny in a while. I was thinking with the cold weather I need to start that up again. Hiding one at Crankshaft Junction would have been perfect. We do plan to hit a couple of...

We spent another night here before heading out Sunday morning. The street sign at the intersection of the washes for Marble and Cottonwood Canyons is a must stop. A final night in the familiar Alabama Hills and home the next day.

A skull (Big Horn?) had washed down at some point. The narrows were fun and impressive. Many petroglyphs, including these that look like spaceships?! Like much of Death Valley, the color variations in the rock always fascinates me. We found many of the fabled Dragon Eggs.

It was clear the storm had reached the hills between Eureka Valley and Crankshaft Junction, leaving a layer of snow in the higher elevations. We found the ranger station and store at Stovepipe wells open on Christmas Day. With some rain squalls still visible, we checked the weather before...

That evening the weather caught up to us and it rained steadily for a couple of hours. Afterwards the clouds cleared and the temps dropped. In the morning we could barely see the dunes, let alone climb them. The wet sand was frozen solid. You didn’t even leave footprints in the sand. But the ice...

Surprised that we didn’t see more of you. It is a big park, but we did cover some of the same areas. We left after work on Wednesday, overnighting along the Walker River on 395. It was chilly in the morning. The continued drive on Christmas Eve provided some weather to deal with. These...
