Default Johnson Creek Yes & no

It seems talking about this stuff so early is a mistake.
Don and I just had lunch an have decided to go to Pagosa Springs the July 8th week.

There is a www.SuperCub.org trip in August 18 to 20, to Johnson Creek
2006. that I would rather go to.
So for now.
Our plans.....
July 8th Pagosa Springs, Co motel ,,,.no camping. Don Christiansen, Jay Pratt,,, We will try to get Danny, Doug, Bob Dean, Turbo and others
This is a whole lot closer for us and still cool in the Mountains in summer.
Ping, Sorry I will not come July 1st. Can't afford all of the trips.

Jay, I know exactly where you?re coming from. I will still be at Johnson Creek July 1 & 2 but have change plans after that. For all others that will still be up there, Doug Peterson will still be making all the stops in the back country the rest of the week ending up in West Yellowstone on July 8.
The wife and I have never been to the San Juan Islands outside of Seattle so we will be off to check them out. Not a big deal in the RV, makes the country a lot smaller.
Some other time?

Default Fuel stop

Jay - there's a few RVers here in Albuquerque - let us know if you are stopping by on the way up.

PS - Stop at AEG (Double Eagle) where the fuel is about a buck a gallon cheaper than Sunport.
