Leaving for a week on Willapa Bay, Washington. Staying right on the water.
Gonna pig out on oysters.
My trailer has a outside Aussie Barbeque that attaches to the rear bumper with a quick connect to propane stub from the trailer.
I put the oysters right on the grill, they steam in their own juice, then POP OPEN....I grab the meat with some tongs and dip it in some sauce, be it barbeque sauce, or butter and garlic, sear it a bit again outside of it shell, then pop them right into my mouth...they are like drugs :
One dozen, no problem, and these local ones are HUGE.
Bugs all over the grill still from Yellowstone, Glacier....ran through some messes of em' Hosed them off, and radiators too, but the splatter will need a good scrubbing

Sounds like a great trip, post some pics and enjoy.
A quick spray of Turtle Wax Ice Spray Wax on the surfaces where bugs accumulate may help keep them from sticking. I use that on the front of my trailer. It works. Probably any quick wax product like that would work.

that is good stuff.
the next step up is the turtle wax hybrid ceramic coating. Amazing stuff. Was never a fan of Turtle wax, but this stuff is absolutely amazing.
the vehicles that don’t have any bugs on them are the ones that never go anywhere or so anything. I’d rather have bug guts ….
Made it no worse for the wear.
Started out in the rain but it got better once we took the ferry off the island.
Couple of strange events tho.
One was as I was heading down a two lane winding and bumpy road at about 50 mph, heading toward our destination, the traffic coming the other way was moderate, and a truck pulling 5th wheel was trying to stay up to speed, he had some folks behind him...
I thought he was going to fast as we approached.
He hit this right hand bend and started to tip toward me, and his trailer skipped over toward me, away from his turn because of the rough roadway...
it was crazy, I saw it happening right before me.
it looked like a few degrees more and he would tipped.... damn.
Then on the same road a truck behind me just stayed there for quite a spell, wasn’t pulling anything.
Then when we leave that stretch and enter a small town, with 2 lanes either way he pulls up even with me and gives me the roll down your window thing...
I did and he says he thinks something is wrong with my trailer...
Cool, I say thanks and pull over, he does too.
Nice guy, no gaming me, says my tires look odd as he was following me, etc.
like there were not lined up with each other, etc.
My trailer has the axles about 4-5 feet apart, he says his wheels are much closer together. I said yeah, when I bought this trailer in 2019 they said the wider apart they are the better tracking and less sway, and I know when I turn you can feel the tension sorta like having you 4 wheel drive engaged on asphalt...
I told him I just got done with a 3000 mile pull and had no problems.
we looked at the tire tread, perfect, no wear at all, then he says the rest axle seems like it’s bent, I told him I understand that’s normal for the rear one I was told to help with loading....
Anyway we made it 😋
