Just got back from the Boss Hoss rally and have a few thoughts. I didn't camp at Paris Landing,I camped out in a yard about 2 miles from the park right on Kentucky Lake. I got to use my easy up for the first time.Now I see why all of you guys carry these things,that was great having instant shade.I forgot about the "honey pot" in the picture.My Dad thought it was funny.

And the led galley lights worked well also.I am thinking about mounting a string in the inside of the hatch and putting a separate switch on it.

It got down to 46 there last night and I fell asleep with the windows open. About 4:00 this morning I was a wee bit chilly.Good thing I took and extra blanket.I was thinking on the way home about putting one of those warming mattress pads under the sheets for nights like that.Has anybody done this? I haven't checked into them yet,they may pull too much power.
Speaking of power,let me share a few pictures of the insanity up there this weekend.Sometimes you just stand there and think " These dudes have way too much time on their hands" .How about a jet powered barstool.Its on sale!

How about a trike with 2 502 Chevy big blocks?

Or my personal favorite,a '57 trike with an LS3 vette engine on it.

There was a bunch of bikes and trikes but not as many as last year.I think the economy has put the hurts on the $40K bike business.

And on a different note, I FINALLY GOT A TAG! Only had the fight with them for 2 hours Friday morning. The DMV wanted me to give them an approximate value on my tear and then they would charge me sales tax on that amount. I pulled out a stack of receipts and told them I have already paid tax on everything.Long story short,we went round and round,they called somebody who called somebody else who faxed some form and then another form.I signed a paper and gave them a check for $27 and boom the tag was in my hand. Now to build a cool tag mount.
Good Roads
