we just stopped for the night in Fairmont MN. About 500 miles to go. Already had a flat tire on the RV, picked up a nail or bolt. Got the spare mounted and didn’t lose the dog this time. 😜 Tire now plugged and holding air, hopefully we won’t need it.

Hip hip hooray!! I was SOOOOO worried that you had used up all the sticky paper catching flies or patching your Jeep, and that you were eating Crayola salad, that we would not get our annual commemorative decal for this fine event. But I can see you are truly a man of your word, and have come through in good fashion to provide all of us souvenir seekers with another tasteful reminder of our adventures to come. From all of us to who's participation you will provide the adhesive documentation, we say "GOODONYA!!" and "THANK YOU!"

Our "Gentleman Jeeper" with a tow rope and parts locker too! Lee has saved more than one Jeep from being thrown on the trailer in failure. Loading the "stuff" today and heading out Saturday for camp. Looks wet for Sunday, but the weather folks are a mess . No two forecasts the same. It was 101 yesterday and I saw a 55 in the forecast----. Crazy!!!!!!! Maybe we'll need snow shovels eh? oilly

The Windmill Draw phone booth is serviceable, weather permitting.
Six mile road is covered in pine cones and cow s%#t. Be aware this is open range. There are thousands of cows if not even hundreds of them in the hills right now. Black cows are hard to see after dark. Six pot bellies were unloading at the Pole Creek corrals. Watch out for cattle trucks and logging trucks. Early morning and in the evening deer and elk will be on the road. When I pulled in last night I sat and watch several deer not 20 yards from me. I have a lawn mower so you can knock down the grass around your tent or camper. (You do the mowing yourself, I will mow for a Perdomo Gran Cru or a Rocky Patel.) This helps minimize the tick problems. I have 35 gallons of water on a trailer. More can be gotten if needed. Safe travels, Dan |

Dan, Kate and I have a similar back ground. We know that a pot, pot belly or opossum belly refers to a semi trailer that hauls cattle, sheep or hogs. Horses are hauled in a straight trailer. Ranchers that have a forest service allotment are now bringing there cattle to summer in the Hills. If the rancher's home pasture is close to his allotment he will trail the cattle down the road to his allotment. That means cow poop on the road. Take it slow on the gravel roads. See yall in a few.

The Custer trail ride is also going on in that neck of the woods this weekend (horses).
We’re heading out with the camper within the hour.

Those are "Slow Elk" or "Missouri Elk". Bruce and I have our cow callers if needed. With Huckleberry on site, we can now all breathe easy. He'll leave the light on for us. Thanks Dan!
Mowing your spot------ now that just doesn't seem remote to me at all. Up in the mountains with your lawn mower. Now he'll have to put out the lawn sprinkler, fertilize, and spray for weeds. Those cone throwing squirrels won't like it. Hard to believe it, the wait is over. Time to drive some Jeep trails. Oilly

Be Monday evening before Grampa’s Jeep arrives. That’s, of course, if we get past the I80 rollover obstacle.
Can’t wait to hit the trail.

Too damn hot. I get something ready to carry out to the trailer or the pickup, make a trip out and back, and spend half an hour mopping sweat and cooling down. Think I'm going to have to wait until after sundown. Should still be on the way before noon tomorrow. Tiny will be travelling with me. Save us a spot! BW

The cows are providing the fertilizer till we arrive. Then I'm sure plenty of fertilizer will be spread among our fellow flat fender fanatics.

Well, Gentleman Lee, do you prefer the suit jacket or will you go more casual, and wear the blazer? |

There's a reason it's called Ol' Unreliable

Linda and I just got back home from setting up the camper at the site. We left there around 6:00 and it was 63 degrees and falling. We will bring RWILLYS down early in the morning. Tried Williams Draw off Deerfield road to Six mile road and thought it was better the the Ditch Creek road but narrow and winding single lane most of the way. On the way out we went east on six mile road 301 to East Slate Road 300. Very nice and wide all the way to the blacktop of Deerfield road. Very dust, we met 4 wheelers who looked like they were covered with slimy dust sweat. Not a pretty sight.
Plan on getting settled in the morning then who knows what fun we will be having! Space R
