Its been a good year so far. I spent 9 of the last 18 nights out. The numbers should be skyrocketing soon, I anticipate well over 100 by the time December rolls around.

birch's big sandbox trip should kick all our butts in bag nights. Hope all is well Joe.

Well, just wait till the two mainland nights, then three on the Apostle Islands coming up soon. ;-P

Bet Cohutta was beautiful. Did you do either river trail, Jack's or Conasauga?

we took Rice Camp to Jacks River, up to the falls, and then out the jacks to Alacusy Valley.

Great trip, hot and humid to be sleeping in a tent with no breeze, but the swimming with 3 dogs was fun

I slept in a bed last March. I was doing some remodeling for a niece and her family. They insisted that I slept inside, so I did... the first night. The remaining 10-12 nights I slept in the Mighty Mighty Tacoma.

Other than that, all other nights this year have been bag nights. How bags nights does that make? Somebody finger that out for me - math gives me a headache.

If'n you cain't finger it out, try to work it out with a pencil.

My Eureka! Aurora could fit scunchily in there. Would that count? (sitting with fingers crossed)

Nope, this place is getting way too soft. First everyone wants to award Euro bag nights for sleeping in an A frame with no heat. Now it's about your truck. Where will it end, Trump Towers? j/k

Gonna get a couple starting this evening. Got reacquainted with an old friend who wants to spend some quiet time this weekend.

Time with you could hardly be described as 'quiet'. Sounds more like a weekend of a nonstop right wing monologue.

Not one bag night yet. We have been camper trailer camping a few times but that doesn't count. I also spent some nights and even days sleeping in my van on the side of the intersate. I hope to get out this Fall locally and at least make it to Arkansas or Alabama once.
