Friday October 18, an FWC Fleet on a Tacoma, parked at an interpretive-sign spot off the
White Mountain Road just south of the entrance kiosk.
Sighting this rig with folks inside, I pulled over and parked alongside. "Nice camper!" the Fleet owner said of mine as I got out of my truck. "I like yours, too!", I responded. This is the traditional greeting when pop-up-owners-but-strangers meet.
When I'm out-and-about on a trip in my camper and I see another FWC/ATC camper parked with folks attached I sometimes park next to them and ask if they're familiar with WanderTheWest.com. I'm not necessarily trying to promote WTW, but more curious if this is someone I've "met" in the cyber world and am now meeting in the physical world...
I chatted with Robert and Ann for a while, about our campers and the White Mts. They commented on the fact that my
roof lifting helper shocks thingys were mounted on the outside, unlike theirs, and I said that theirs must have been factory-installed, that most folks on WTW put them on the outside. I told them about WTW, which was new to them. Robert took a photo of the WanderTheWest.com decal on the back of my camper as a reference and said that he'd be joining.
They were on their way up to explore the Whites for the first time. Happy trails!
