    some pictures i promised

    Well with the help of Bill I think I can post some pictures now.
    These will be some from a trip the wife and I took last summer. The entire trip covered 26,000 miles and 16 days. Would have kept going but work said I needed to come home. That is the deal I have with them, no parts due and I am gone and if a requirement comes up I head home.
    As you can see the wife likes to travel with her dog. and she entertains us at night playing ball.

    The camper is cool. The scenery is awesome. Your dog is bigger than ours and so is your carrier. I will definitely show the pics to my wife. Were you referring to me when you said Bill?

    Thanks for sharing. No one will ever say you are not serious about 2 wheeled travelling.

    used to think the camper idea was silly, but as time goes on, a lot less so.

    Especially around the states, many places it is as easy or easier to get a space in a campground than a hotel room

    Yeah we started out with a tent. lots more stuff and less. Every thing had to go on the bikes. Guess who got most of the stuff. Tent,plastic tarp,1burner cooker,sleeping bags,very little food,very small ice chest,air mattress cloths. Now every thing goes in the trailer the only thing I carry on the bike is the small ice chest for the day. Now we have a ice 2 burner stove pots food for about 3 days larger ice chest so we aren't stopping to get dinner at the last town and trying to figure how to carry it.

    I think you get the idea that the trailer is a way better way to go and once you are moving you don't even know it is there.

    Do you have other shots of the camper? My wife suggested that we sell our motorhome. I told her I would need a bigger bike to pull this off.

    Yes I will look for them and put then in a folder. PM me your email and I can send better pictures.

    Right now I am doing another post from another trip to the Valley of fire.
