    ...the best laid plans of mice and men often go astray.

    Good news! I was going to suggest that if you could afford to keep both, to do so. If the MIL ever has to move in, you would still have an "escape" and you guys would have a summer home and could use the RV to "commute". Cheers, Oly

    GPS SUGGESTIONS

    I've tried to use my smart phone in this capacity, but I finally broke down and just bought a Garmin Etrex 30 for my journeys across the Prairies/Badlands of Eastern Montana. Now I just have to contend with the Garmin trying to send me over "Ranch Roads" or like one day, I think I hit almost...

    Our Great Western Adventure Has Begun!

    Pay attention to the weather, the only time the passes for the Interstates/Major Highways would be closed would be if a major storm is going on or just passed. Other than that, be prepared to see some snow! Oly

    Blue Angels grounded

    I'm sorry I'm not a sheeple. It's not my fault that the Administration directly hosed the military with these cuts. Just trying to make sure the truth gets out. Oly

    Mt. Rushmore to Omaha, NE

    The Ellsworth AFB Air Museum at the base is pretty neat.  There is also an old ICBM Launch Control Facility (I think at Exit 90) alongthe way. Oly

    Blue Angels grounded

    Because the 'Angels & T-birds are specialized teams whose sole function is to perform, they are the best of the best, the planes are specially modified aircraft.  Not every unit can do this and the day to day training is totally different than the training for these units. [Political rhetoric...

    Furnace help

    Yes, I know it's been over a year, but I finally felt good enough to work on it. I believe that I have Fibromyalgia, a gift that keeps on giving from the desert. Anyhoo, I had power to the thermostat when I started, but it would not come on. To check to see if it was the thermo, I jumpered the...

    Sioux City to Tetons

    I would agree with that until you hit the oil patch. And I am not blaming the workers, they are either working or sleeping, but some of the people that have migrated to the area to either find a job and can't or are supplying the area with illegal products. THOSE are the ones I would have a...

    Do you un-hitch on an overnite?

    I'm not saying it is "correct" but I have done it before. Just make sure you leave a note or some sort of reminder/checklist so you don't forget to unhook something. Oly
