Sounds like a great idea...

Maybe Sean will have his camper ready..

I know BIGKEN and I wont partake of this unless there is a 5 star hotel close by.

Dan...if you think this is the boonies...you should see the town I grew up in. 1300 people...no gas stations...1 convenience/package store...1 bar...and that's at the bowling alley!!! When I was young...the police chief...part time...drove his Maverick as the town cruiser. Three speed...on the column...top speed about 50 mph!!!

Geeee with all the comforts of home being towed behind my F-350 what more could a Big man want..There will be cooks there and he wont have to cook...He can tie his dog to the Bumper if the camper and she will be just fine...He would have a blast and stay dry when it rains
