Blatant plug and timely tips

Okay this will be short.  My granddaughter Allison has been very active in high school TV production and I want to show everyone why we are so proud of her.  So take a look at this attached clip and compare it with your small hometown commercial news cast.  I  think you'll find these high school kids do a pretty fine job.

Campers are slowly but surely pulling up stakes and heading out ... and we'll soon follow.  As I watch the parade of those preparing to leave, it reminds me of the preparation we all need to do to get ready to hit the road.  Some need to winterize, all need to check engine fluids, tire air pressure, windows and vents closed, propane valves closed, battery(s) condition, windshield wipers, stop lights and turn signals, antennas lowered, will the slides retract, and will the engine and generator even start.  Try to get all these checks made on the morning you're planning to leave will almost guarantee higher stress and the likelihood that you'll get to spend another day in camp fixing something.  So make out a check list a week ahead of your departure date and get at it.

Still livin' the dream and working through my checklist.
