Well, the short story is D and her sister are enrolled for a weaving class in Taos today through Sunday.  So we came up yesterday afternoon and are staying at Monte Bello park just north of Taos near the base of Wheeler Peak (13,161") NM's highest:

We stayed at Monte Bello during our last visit to Taos, what a great area to visit.

That's one heck of a foot warmer!

Looks a bit like the "donut" but maybe more like a "long John".   🤪

@Mike and Carol - pretty tough to beat that view, eh, Mike?  Spectacular in our book…,

Yes, indeed!  We spent five days there and need to go back.  The Taos Big Barn Dance music festival (lots of Bluegrass) is in September, might be a possibility.  Plus it’s close to Durango where our son and family live.  Mike

Keep us posted if you do go back to Taos - we've got a remote cabin in CO about an hour north of here which is usually part of our Taos run...  Durango is awesome this time of year - another one of our favs!

Mosquito Lake State Park in northeast Ohio for the Casitas of Ohio Spring Kick-Off Egg Rally. Three Oliver’s, four Escapes, a couple Scamps, two Cortez, a Trillium, and 20 Casitas. Deb was fiddling with “night mode” on her phone. 

Next up is a weekend with Tearjerkers and then head to Alabama!

Our Oliver is parked at Snow Canyon UT SP tonight and for three nights!

[jd1923]

Oliver moved north to Parowan Gap. Picture taken returning from our day outing when we could first see the campsite from Gap Rd. If you can see Ollie in the first pic, you have good eyes! Zoomed in on the second picture.

Chris,

Nice Video!

[Mike and Carol]

We’re on our way to Hohenwald for our second Oliver service visit in 8 years.  Staying tonight at Clear Spring COE campground on Wright Patman Lake outside of Texarkana.  We usually stop here on our way east.  There are 4 Loops, A, C, and D are FHU.  Loop B on the lake is W/E, which is where we normally stay.  Unfortunately, I’m just using E because when I hooked up my W nothing worked.  I must have a stuck check valve in the back.  Oh well, the water pump works fine and Monday I’ll ask Jason to replace it since I don’t have a spare.  Mike

Hey, John - awesome vid, brother!  

However, as a rule, D, the Knuckleheads, and I prefer the way-more less populated boondocking options - you and Chris should try it sometime.  We just loath being "elbow-to-elbow" with other campers on public land.  HA! (JK, of course!)

Cheers!

Just a shame that this area is soooo crowded!  😉

Nicely done.

Mike & Carol - 

Shame that the ceramic coating shine isn't holding up on your Ollie - it looks great!

I'm sure that Jason and the Service team will get you back in business with the water.

See you two soon - have a safe trip.

Yes, the shine on hull 135 looks amazing! For the dull look, just scroll up a few screens to see hull 113 at Snow Canyon (the front is really flat).

They’ll have our trailer two days, so we’ll be spending Tuesday night here as well.  Leaving Wednesday morning for David Crockett Birthplace State Park in East Tennessee for a week.  See you in Alabama!  Mike

We liked Homolovi! It's so convenient to I-40 and Winslow is an added bonus.
