Album: Overland Journal Trailer Test May 8-11, 2008
I was invited to join a group who was participating in trailer testing for the Overland Journal magazine, in Prescott, AZ. It was a great time, spent with great people, traveling is a beautiful part of the country. It was cool to see all of these different trailer being used as they should be. Check out the Summer issue for all of the details. I only wish I did not have a cold during this trip. :-(

Album: 1st Anniversary Trip, May 3-7, 2008
Lisa and I celebrated our 1st anniversary by taking a trip to San Luis Obispo and Monterey. We traveled with the San Diego Miata Club for our stay at the Madonna Inn, in SLO. We visited Hearst Castle on a night tour. We also went to the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose. While in Monterey we visited Laguna Seca raceway and did the 17 mile drive. We had a great time and it was a wonderful way to spend our 1st anniversary.

Album: Adventure Trailers Movie Night
The crew at Aventure Trailers held an open house/movie night. Lots of the folks from Expedition Portal.com showed up as well as those with AT trailers. The movie shown was about the 1st Overland expedition from London to Singapore. It was a great evening seeing cool rigs and meeting very nice people. Can't wait for the next one.

Album: Mojave Road, March 14-17
This was our first major trip with our Cherokee and Kamparoo tent trailer. We drove across the historic Mojave Road. We were joined by James, Stacey, Steve and Joanne, whom we met through Expedition Portal.com. This trip also was to celebrate my 40th birthday. It was unbelievable and we all had a great time. We even got snowed on. :-)

Album: Superstition Mar. 2008
Our trip to the Superstition OHV area with our new to us, Kamparoo travel trailer. It towed great, hardly being noticed behind our 2000 Cherokee. We left early Sunday morning as the winds were blowing 15-25mph since the night before. We thought we would get blown away.

Album: Thanksgiving 2007
Lisa and Mike took their first trip to the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, Four Corners and surrounding areas. We did this with a group of Miata people, driving almost 1500 miles in our Miata. It was amazing and we had so much fun!

Album: Kauai, Sept. 2007
We spent a week in Kauai using a vacation time share we bought. Kauai was amazing and we were not there 5 minutes when we were ready to move there. It truly is what old Hawaii is really about. Unbelievable beauty unspoiled by overwhelming tourisim. We will be back!

Album: Coyote Canyon 11-17-2007
This was our first run with the Expedition Portal.com group, up to Coyote Canyon. This was the most extreme 4x4'ing I have done in a vehicle. The Cherokee did great!

Album: Catalina Trip, March 18-19, 2007
We took our first trip to Catalina to celebrate Mike's 39th birthday. We had the most amazing couples massage that we still talk about. We had a great time.
