That's one thing a good trailer will have over a tent any day of the week. The boy and I went camping with his scout pack last May at Queen Wilamena. No trailers, tents only. Just happened to be the same weekend a cold front came through. For those that have never been to Queen Wilamena (just outside Mena)...the whole park is on top of a mountain about cloud level. July & August are great months to visit, it's always 20 degrees cooler there compared to Mena....and it's only 14 miles on the Hwy between the two.

You weren't one of the dozen or so guys dragging a boat to Trimmel today? I know I saw at least 4 Super Duties head down that way by Jones Mill. Maybe someday we'll buy a boat...it would be a pontoon just because I don't care to fish, but enjoy swimming. Too many other toys right now that need to be paid off before buying anymore. Still, and do mean STILL trying to talk the wife into the 50th anniversary Mustang. I tried sweating the deal by saying I'd sell one of my toys in the garage. She didn't bit....may have to cough up another diamond ring.
