Independence Day Weekend

[CarlS]

Mabel and I spent Independence Day and the rest of the weekend at New Smyrna Beach. We mostly kayaked in the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and relaxed. Here are pics of of our tou hauler set up in the RV park and of our kayaks. I did not not get any kayaking pics because I did not want to take my camera in the saltwater.

Well so far, the demand is slow. But is great for hauling toys and it beats sleeping on the ground!!

. . . and it beats sleeping on the ground!!

Now with your background I would have figured you were the King of Sleeping on the Ground.

I bet you can fit the whole Swedish Bikini team just in the cargo area, WITH room to dance, you do have a disco ball in the cargo area right Carl?

I have definitely had my share of sleeping on the ground - and many times without a tent! However, since I have a choice... I prefer a mattress, sheets, pillows and blankets.

I would sure like to try!!!! I installed the disco ball this weekend. Of course, I had to move cat litter box.

 

[keystiger]

Whats the Cat Liter Box doing on the CEILING????? Wait, I don't want to know, I think I am too young for this conversation

 

[CarlS]

It was in the way of the dancing.

 

[keystiger]

Oh....I was going a totally different direction entirely!

 

[Rocky]

What a nice rig

 

[CarlS]

Thanks, Rocky. It is big enough to live in full time.

This thread is a hoot!!

What does that rig weigh, Carl?

 

[CarlS]

I am not sure of the empty weight. I will have took on the data plate next weekend. Loaded with two motorcycles, 40 gallons of fresh water, ten gallons in the hot water heater 20 gallons of gasoline for the generator, and 40 gallons of gasoline for the fuel station, tools, food, clothes, etc, and the holding tanks empty, it weights a little over 16,000 pounds/7,257 kilograms. It is rated for a gross wight of 17,000 pounds/7,711 kilograms. My F450 pulls it easily.

The joys of retirement, getting to select your own sleeping arrangements.

Right, if this is one of those 'size does matter' contests, here is my entry:

 

[CarlS]

I have one of those, too. And I use it when traveling distances on my bikes. But I must admit that I prefer the comforts of the toyhauler.
