Well, we jumped in headfirst and bought a compact JR. :D , that's the good news! The bad news, It's in Ohio, and we are in Texas :cry: We'll have to take a few days off from work to go get it.

Well, it will be a while before any pixs. Wrecked our Frontier about a mile from getting the trailer :oops: my fault :cry: truck is totaled had to rent a car (no trailer hitch) and run back to TX for work (my boss" be here on night of 11th or don't come back") We will try again in Aug. I have one week off (I did have two, but wasted one to try and get the compact Jr.)

Got a new (used) Tundra, so will try it again in August. 8)
I'll add pix of frontier when I figure out how, my pix are too big and resizing didn't work

Don n' Deb; Try this site http://www.shrinkpictures.com/ It is the easiest that I have found. Just shrink your pics down to 350 pixels and they'll be the right size to fit into your album here. :snappy: :snappy:

Don and Deb, bummer, wrecked your truck and don't plan to pick up your wonderful teardrop until August. Wow, how can you stand the delay? You are about to experience the biggest camping experience in your life. Plan on enjoying your new find, and look forward to meeting a bunch of friendly campers, who also enjoy folks who yearn for the wonderful out-of-doors and look forward to meeting like-minded people. Caution, you may have to beat them off with a stick.

I'm anxious to hear more about your magnificent camping experiences and perhaps a shake-down trip is in order, to the wonderful land of Southern California. Swing on by, there's lots of room here for a teardrop and the coffee is always on.
Roly, the little woody guy......... 8) :thumbsup:
