Barbara,
You call that a tree??? :lol:
Hopefully, You guys will be able to make it down to the redwoods. :thumbsup:
Harris Beach is a beautiful place.
The last time I was there, I was feeding seaguls from atop that big rock at the lower picnic area.

Steve,
There's a series of very interesting bridges along that route, designed and built by famed bridge engineer, Conde McCullough.

Hehe...wouldn't that be fun at Bonneville! And Martin made the hitch and installed it in about a hour. Car has full tube chassis so it was not hard. (easy for me to say, I didn't have to do it :lol: )

Barbara you've got the worlds luckiest teardrop. Ya know, we'd pay good money if you'd pull our teardrops one lap around the campground at gatherings. You could make a real good biz outta that! :lol: :thumbsup:

Or maybe we could make a plywood picture of a Viper and pose our tears behind it...hmm....that's not doin nuthin' for me. :roll: Ain't nuthin' the real thing. 8)
