This is it!
Well folks, it's here. I work half a day tomorrow and then I'm off for two weeks. Only six more days to the big day. Just got the groomsman gifts tonight. All that's left is the final headcount for the rehearsal dinner and we're done. Seven days and I'll be on a beach in St. Lucia for a week gettin' a tan!

This is kinda snazzy, if you're going the trailer route. 
Unfortunately they want 14 grand for it.

I currently own a pop up but looked into building a tear drop--you can build one for about $1500 or $2.5K for a really nice one. But basically they are tents on wheels--you can't even stand in one which is why I bought a used pop up.

As far as 5th wheel's go, we're gonna get a Jayco Eagle 325bhs or a KZ Sportsmen 325bh3. We want one with bunks so when we have kids they and their friends have their own beds.

I've convinced her to take 2 week trips with the camper and let me go backpacking 4-5 days on the trip :-) So we both win ;-)

And I thought the thread was about the movie. Too bad a modern aircraft carrier was not between the Japanese fleet and Pearl Harbor on December 6, 1941.

Go Dubs.

Hey-ull yeah!!

Some of those sites have a good-sized driveway.

Forest Road 91 is in pretty good shape on the eastern approach but gets kinda gnarly going west from Bear Heaven to Bickle Knob.

I might have to give it a try...if not I'll take it down the road somewhere it will fit. I miss camping on the Williams River.
