I like the artwork!
But in 2018, I didn't notice any women fixing dinner while enjoying a martoonie. 
Any east coasters up for the trip? |

Would I be allowed to camp and hang out in my VW Amarok? I don´t want to drive or tow my Safari all the way up there but would love to attend.

| My wife and I have a general interest to go to Ca.in the Thing or maybe tow it, we were thinking of going for the Hwy.1 Treffen from Wash. down to Mexico. I recently retired, so have the time to do more outlandish things. |
