This surgery was intense! I was awake and could see everything that was being done in perfect focus! The only thing I’m really bummed about is that I won’t be able to go to SpeedWeek this year because part of the surgery requires a gas to be inserted into my eye and I have to be very careful...

Eye Dr is the best! Instantly diagnosed the problem! A Total Thickness Macula Hole! Got an appointment with the best surgeon for this problem in the whole western United States & Canada! Got surgery scheduled for July 9th (two days ago!) and he also said that I HAD to go on our planned trip to...

So now that I’ve shared all the good from the last couple months…. Early in May I started noticing something strange with my vision. When watching TV at night I was seeing a strange blip on the screen going across the line of the ticker tape, almost like an EKG heartbeat blip... WTF is that...

On my trip up to Yellowstone I’m pretty sure @PugetDude was there before me…. Who else would put Diamond plate into such awesome artwork?!

I even managed to prove my worth as a Hunter-Gatherer and bring home dinner! Caught this bad boy south of Hatch on a small creek! It ate GOOD!

Next we went farther south to Panguitch, Utah for the last 5 days. Spent a day going thru Zion National Park, hadn’t been there since the early 90’s and my wife had never been there. Lots of changes since then, much more commercial and restrictions on where you can and cannot go. Still...

After a couple weeks in Wyoming we made our way back down into Utah and spent a couple days in Provo Canyon on Deer Creek, relaxing and fishing. Had an RV spot right on the creek and saw ospreys every day also fishing the creek. Its called “fishing” and not “catching” cuz I definitely didn’t do...

It was! Saw so much of this great country and am really glad that those in power chose to preserve as much as they could for the future Americans!

I did take a few pictures of the favorite place for me that we went to. We traveled over to Dubois, Wy to the National Museum of Military Vehicles. Very cool museum, we walked over 1-1/2 miles inside it and didn’t see everything. They have almost a sample of almost every military vehicle ever...

Over the next 3-1/2 weeks we traveled everywhere you can go in Yellowstone and the adjoining areas! Saw 10’s of thousands Buffalos, a couple herds of elk, moose (damn, those things are big!) black bears, 4 grizzly bears, and even a bunch of eagles. During a float trip on the Snake River we saw...

Next up was prepping for a near month long trip to Wyoming to tour Yellowstone and all points between and near Jelly-Stone! Been so busy I haven’t had time to swap all the lights on my GMC to the new LED stuff so I just polished them as best I could. I’m also a bit hesitant to do the swap right...

@Xti04 a buddy has a SnoMaster 12 volt fridg/freezer and it works great. He has it in his Jeep Gladiator PU with his pop up tent setup. I’ve checked them out at the Overland Expo here in Flagstaff a couple years ago. They had a great demo where they would offer you some frozen rock hard Blue...

Oops! Lol!

Wow! Been so busy it’s been over two months since I’ve done an update here. Lots have happened so I’ll try to do stuff chronologically and in order of excitement! First thing we did was get the camper loaded and packed for the first SCTA meet of the year @ ElMirage Dry Lake. So happy to be able...

Most also use those ”screwdrivers“ to butter their morning bagels…
