Happy New Year California, I`ve been out on the road all week.I hope someday soon I can get me one of the fancy phones so I can keep in touch better

January 24, 2015

I see California has slid off the Active Topics, so I am here to bring it back to the top.

No new phone yet. Been working and putting a lot of miles on the road between Petaluma and Ontario, CA. Got 4 good paying trips in last week. This week only got 2. Have lost my lease on my rental and have to move out. No more train time till I retire I guess. THAT SUCKS BIG TIME.

Hello February 2015. Another month has come and gone. GTG`s this month is the big GTG at Randsburg at the airstrip. Looks like they have quite a group going this year. Alas I can not go. With the new job, I could not get the time off plus loses my home puts me in a spot. I received my notice 2 weeks ago and have till the end of the month to get out. So I am spending the weekends boxing everything up and putting it in storage, since the weekends is the only time off I have, about 34 hour restart for my logbook. Probably live out of my truck for awhile till I find another small place.

Hello March, Nothing going on this month. I heard Raandsburg was a great success. I wanted to go but had just changed jobs in December and was still in my probbie position so I could not get the time off.

Happy March BM I wanted to go too but the boss lady doesn`t do camping!

March 22, 2015

When I first started with the DTW group and went on the camping trips, all I had was a little one person tent. I really hated tent camping, being cold all the time. Loved the Yosemite trips but sleeping in a tent on that hard ground was miserable. Waking up in the middle of the night freezing. Or the trips to Pismo. The tent i moved up to was a four person tent but it had mesh on the sides for air movement. Never thought about it till I went to Pismo and had the wind. Wake up in the morning and be surrounded by sand where it came through the mesh and lined up on both sides of the sleeping bag. Spent half of the morning cleaning out the tent. Finally after three years got a 1983 komfort trailer, wasn`t the greatest looking but it kept me warm and safe. Last year bought a 2014 28ft Passport and now have everything needed to have a great time camping.
