I’ve gone through and updated my checklists for items to pack for a first aid kit and pack list. You can find them here.

I’ve also added some new pics from the last few months so feel free to take a look.

It’s time to go camping!

Well if you can’t tell, I’ve actually updated my site. So far I’ve updated the gallery for the last few months but I still need to add some sort of write up from my Yellowstone trip but thats for another day.

Yep you heard it. Dallas TX received over 11 inches of snow last week. It blew the previous record of 7.something inches out of the water for a 24 hr period. Luckily the roads weren’t too bad and it was mostly just slush.
Due to that weather I got off work early so I stopped to take a few pics.

Well I finally got my ARB bumper and it is now installed. I also got a Winch for Christmas so this is mounted as well. I guess I’ll post some pics of it when I get all of the other pics I need to post, posted.

Wow I haven’t posted anything in a while. OK I know I have alot to do and hopefully around Christmas I’ll get caught up. What I need to add is a write up from my Yellowstone trip. I need to post pics of my front bumper install (Yes ARB finally released it). I have a ton of pics of Lizzie to add and prob some housekeeping on the site here so check back soon for some updates.

Well we’re now in the Teton Village staying the night in a hostel. Last night it was COLD!! We woke up to an ice covered tent and a temp about 8 degress so tonight we’re going to stay warm in a nice little hostel room.

More to come later.

Well we made it to Cheyenne, WY today. On the way up we were able to stop in Loveland, CO for dinner and to see my Aunt, Uncle and cousins. We had a good dinner at Chili’s and then finished up the day’s drive and stop at the KOA in Cheyenne. Since we are going to be in a hurry in the morning we spurlged for the Kabin so all we have to do is shower quick and get on the road…Yellowstone here we come!

That’s right in 9 days I’ll get to start my vacation. I still need to get the food thing figured out but it’s looking like some soups for lunchs and all sorts of goodies for dinner. I’m planning on making pulled BBQ chicken sandwiches with my homemade BBQ sauce, maybe burgers and then after that I don’t know. Roger is planning on bringing steaks and stuff for fajitas but after that we’ll just have to figure it out as we go I guess.

I also need to get some beer. I should probably make sure I can bring glass into park just to be on the safe side as my beer of choice lately is only available in bottles.

OK as its coming down to crunch time for my trip, I’ve finally gotten some of my todo things done.

Alignment – done
Tires Rotated – Need to do
Get a tent – done
Get a warmer sleeping bag – done
Fix rattle in headliner  – done…at least I think I fixed it
Rattle from skid plates - Still trying to track down
Loaded up GPS with trip route – done
Organize my gear – About halfway done
Tigthen CB antenna – done
Food – Still trying to figure out what all we’re gonna eat

There is more on my list but I can’t think of it off the top of my head. The major thing other than getting my tires rotated is to figure out the food but I still have about 10 days to do that.
