Arizona cop let me go with a written warning at 82 mph and the California cop let me go with a verbal warning at 72 mph two lanes too far to the left of that awful "Slow Lane".

Brian he must have really liked the trailer! For most folks that would have been 1 ticket for 17 over the legal trailer speed and a second one for the lane violation. Miss Piggy saved you some coin that day lol.

Enjoying following your travels :thumbsup:

Brian I alerted my Highway Patrol nephew, to pass the word to all of the freeway cops about keeping an eye on Miss Piggy and cut the poor Canadian some slack.......see, it worked. Now if you believe that, I have bridge to sell you.....

I always set my cruz control at 60 and hope not to fall asleep at the wheel. What is it, after 55 the trailer is going to start swaying ?

Okay, enough about "Miss Piggy" living in the fast lane.
We still have 750 miles to go and a weekend of camping somewhere in Oregon???
Any suggestions?
We are currently in Florence.

Brian,

Are you going to continue up the coast hwy or are you going inland to I-5? We always liked staying around Yachats or Newport, but that's not too far from Florence and I'm not sure how far you want to travel before camping again. If you drive inland to I-5, the Newport to Salem highway is a good road.

It was nice to meet you and Sandi at Applegate; I wish we could have stayed around for the dutch oven chicken!

Dear Richard and Elaine,
Thank you very much for your incredible company. I have just gotten somewhere where I could stream your video and it was almost as superb as you guys are! I wish to thank all those who camped with us for making it a great week.
Regards,

Guy
Keep on living, laughing, learning and loving.
