I have ... returned.

I know you probably didn't notice I was gone, but until yesterday it had been over a year since my last post.

At the end of July 2009, I bought this...

More pictures here.

I fixed it up a bit and took the family on a couple camping trips in August.

More Pictures here, here & http://www.a-ruud-awakening.com/Ruuds/index.php?n=Photos.ScottCounty200909.

Then in the spring, I rebuilt the structural part of the roof.

More photos here.

I also did a "Suspension Lift Mod".

Lift photos here.

We went on a short weekend trip as a shakedown of the new roof and suspension and then we went to....



It was a 13 day road trip and it was awesome.  Easily the best vacation I have ever had.

The full write up for the trip is here.

The photo/video gallery is here.

Did I miss anything really good while I was gone?

I see that PixelHugger is still inching his way to success. ;D

I see that many of the regulars are still here.

I see I may have to send some more money to Andy, the SpinTrak looks sweet.

Looks like you had a great trip to Yellowstone.   I've been there (and Grand Teton) twice, and absolutely loved it.  I would go back in a heart beat!

So would I, but we are planning more big trips like this.  There are a lot more National Parks and such to see.

Glacier National Park is amazing too, I highly recommend it, if you haven't been there yet.

Glacier is definitely on the list, but it is a long list.

The next big trip is either going to be more Southwest or Northeast.

Welcome back.  Trip look awesome.

Our family just made the leap into RVing too.   Taken some small trips here and there.   Just took a 1200 mile round trip up to SC over thanksgiving to visit some friends and test out our toad setup.   Worked well.   For xmas were heading up through the Shenandoah Valley and on to D.C.   Hope to do some skiing.   We plan on taking a coast to coast to northern border trip for an entire summer next year.
