This is more of a "how to not camp". I rolled back too far, broke the stop on the ramp and got it stuck between the ground, tire and jack point on both rear tires. This is a good reason to have a shovel in the bus.
It was a fun campout at the Texas BusFest.

I bought the tent from a Czech guy Helmut Szydlik 4-5 years ago but first used this summer.
You can find more info here.

This was us last weekend at Black Meadow landing campground, on the California side of Lake Havasu. The snowbirds were in awe. |

Yeah, but did you put the boat in the water?

I've been working on a middle seat/bed extension/chuck box, and still have some dialing in to do with regards to the dimensions and hinges, but have really been enjoying it.

| I love your '65 EZ with the Velvet Green and Blue White. Is it original paint? Can't wait to see more pics of how you built the additions. |

Thanks, BarryL! Originally Pearl White but when I tried to strip down through many layers of paint I just couldn't salvage it so went to bare metal. Painted it myself about 10 years ago and its held up alright for my first (and only) paint job. Its actually VG and PW.
