$150? Sigh... Needless to say.. If they don't want them. Let me know and include me on the list. My car hauler is coming back from florida and I can grab at least one at a time.

Would I fix? Not sure.. but want the parts.

I did some more Mods to Clyde since my last posting..... I installed LED dome lights... Definately more efficient lighting using only a small amount of power...







I changed out the Radiator to a nice aluminum racing unit....... now Clyde runs much cooler even on the 100 degree days... Smile





I just completed a 2000 mile round trip in Clyde to North Carolina...... I attended the High Country Bus Festival in the Smokies.... We had 176 busses at the event for a 5 day campout... Nice time.... and lots of canoe time... Clyde did well in the mountains.... Tamed them all... Very Happy









I can't wait for the next trip to this event next year.... Cool

Situated in Eastern Oklahoma in the Quachita National Forest .... Billy Creek is a very low traffic and secluded camping area........ Mike (ItLives) and his wife have been going there in his bus for a couple years...... so he talked me into it this past weekend......

We ended up driving our busses another 3 miles into the Quachita National Forest past Billy Creek Campgound at a Park Rangers suggestion... We found a real nice , secluded place to make camp right on one of the creeks that run through this area..... Due to the Dog Days of Summer"we've had, everything except the swimming hole was dry..... and that water was stagnate and nasty..... so no swimming this trip...!

I got to test out my shower room and it was a great success...... really nice to clean up on a hot dry afternoon........especially after hiking and Geocaching in the area.....

We had good food, good drinks and a lot of laughs... Hated for it to end so quickly but i logged this site in my GPS for future campouts...
