I simmer craisins with raspberry jam as a cranberry sauce when I cook turkey. It's pretty tasty.

Welcome, Mike. Lots to learn from this friendly list. Enjoy.

I routinely hand out ATC business cards to people who show interest in my camper. Given how incredibly helpful and capable the ATC team is, it seems the least I can do in return.

As always, fine report, great photos. But don't tell me that Mme Ski used that particular motivational technique with her students. Although I bet it would have worked.

After lots & lots of border crossings (at least twice year since 1970)--I don't take fruits & veg either direction. Meat is tricky. I think last I looked there was still a restriction on beef northbound (?) I think eggs and poultry is still a no-no. A relatively clean vehicle is a good idea...

Congratulations and enjoy. Power Wagon's advice about getting out while you and your family have your health is REAL important.

Maybe it's just that I'm not structured for peeing around my camper, and am a bad sport, but I gottoo say that porcupines EAT privies. I met a guy in Banff, once, who worked repairing porcupine-gnawed biffies (it was Canada, eh) who said he thought they were drawn to the minerals in urine...

Thanks for a well-reasoned response, Craig. Bears and campers alike should appreciate your response.

Fer sure. The best.

Yep. A great crew. Just can't say enough good about them.

Yep. Works for Geezelles, too.

Great report, fine photos. Thanks.

Thanks, folks. Not worried about missing out on internet for a few days (although road and weather reports can be good things to access), but with a 101-year-old mom I need to be contactable when I'm camped. Not sure of travel plans. I'd thought I was going to put in some days at Bodega...

I totally HATE having to deal with a cell phone when I'm camping but it's family stuff. Can anyone tell me, please, if there is cellphone reception at Furnace Creek CG in Death Valley? I've got a Wilson booster for what it's worth.

Fine report. Thanks.

Super report. I really like the photos of Rip van Winkle.

First heard it in high school. I thought the punch line was, "Och, I canna remember whit ah did, but ah won furrrst prize!"

Here are a few links, with varying perspectives (perhaps) credibility. http://freedomoutpost.com/patriot-speaks-out-on-bundy-ranch-and-oregon-judges-it-is-time-to-stand-judges-have-totally-gone-rogue/...

I notice that there are folks less than happy with Gold Butte NM (not me) and threatening armaments. Lovely.

Well, yes, good wishes. My very least favourite holiday of the year. To quote Robert Burns' "To a Mouse," Still thou art blest, compar'd wi' me The present only toucheth thee: But, Och! I backward cast my e'e. On prospects drear! An' forward, tho' I canna see, I guess an' fear!

Woooh! that would be a Big Bang indeed.

Well, this is actually the background to this. My mom lives on a third of an acre out of Sacramento that was an apricot orchard years back. There were also two really wonderful blue oak trees. All of this was apparently attractive to scrub jays. There have always been lots of them in the...

They're not good at carolling but they actually do exchange gifts.
