Hopefully I can get-er-done by tomorrow. Doubt I'll get that way till Thursday now. Had to leave the van at my buddies place several miles away from home. His wifey wasn't too happy having to haul my lard ass home 40 miles away either. It's a lovely day!

You wouldn't want it to be easy.. that'd be no fun!

In the shop now still no word

My Impala just got out of the shop but still needs work.
My pickup is in the shop and might need a new A/C compressor.
Can't even get the Harley started.
Even my work truck is in the shop.

Can I say that there have been times in my life that it seems like I have bad luck?

I'll make a stab at it no matter what! Still got me a tent and Dunbar has a 4x4.

Fixed

On our way. Not sure if we'll make it to the top but we're gonna try

Sweet!! We will be leaving SF around 6:30 tonight. Baker is still the plan. If full, we will likely camp at the turn off or near by.

See ya there!

And nowadays you can get them online. Just go here and follow the instructions.

Thanks For the link! We're still looking in track for tomorrow but probably can't stay but one night. Anyone know if there's any cell service there? I would usually consider this a dumb question but so far I have had cell service everywhere I've camped this trip.

Well we made it and this is crazy that there is a weak Vrzn signal!!! Daveb and Don are here. Road is not 2wd friendly as far as my read. First stream crossing is okay but couple of dpots after are tricky. Glad we have 4wd Lo. Incredibly beautiful, sunny, and breeeezy! Grabbed a site overlooking lake but trade off is wind. Hope everyone can make it!! I will check forum later. Ciao
