Should watch the Bill Maher and Kid Rock podcast video. Ferris if you consider it political than delete it and/or delete me. I think it is just two people with different beliefs finding common ground. We should all be this way.

No worries, Conchy. You and I enjoy diplomatic immunity....

That's what happens when you put two people of differing viewpoints in a room together face to face.

Maybe we should have a Proud Boys and Transgender Group hug.
Couple cold ones at the Pub together....winning

It's not about Maher and Kid Rock. It's about the responses it will generate. Pretty interesting video.

Of course we know it won't stay up cause 2 or 3 on here will turn it confrontational.

Waste of time. Tarp kept pontificating about anything and everything. Finally just walked out of there.

YEA , He got the Super size Pack.
Last time I saw him he was walking around in circles loading and unloading his Camper.
Said he's was going to a circle jerk party or something... you know he has a Lisp and no front teeth... just sayin

Cleaning all done.  Packing up tomorrow and leaving Thursday if all goes according to plan.

The GF mumbled something about a package and her soup earlier, not quite sure what she said. 

I just noticed my monitor is breathing and appears a bit disturbed.

Curious.

It is better to pick up at his place. The selection is incredible and he discounts due to no shipping. He might even give you 30 minutes with Big Candy if you're lucky 

If you go on a Thursday and stay for dinner, that's possum and collards night. Mmmm delicious.

An interesting and a bit unanswerable question....

The short answer is we're not sure.

The longer answer is I have a business event to attend in 2 weeks, so we'll spend the next few weeks along the Atlantic coast before going to the event in Memphis.  Then we intend to spend Thanksgiving in the Philadelphia area members of my family, then after that we will likely head west to Detroit (friends) than the Milwaukee and Green Bay areas to visit the GF's family, and intend to be back home around or just before Christmas.

What we don't have is a precise schedule or route -- intentionally kind of flying by the seat of our pants (and, frankly, the weather as winter approaches).  While we do have a list of places to visit/things to see along the way, we've found that type of travel to be more enjoyable than laying out a specific plan.

I expect we'll head to St. Augustine first -- the GF hasn't been there and I think she'll enjoy exploring during the week while I work.  Maybe Charleston next, but not really sure.... time will tell.

Tarp, Be careful  driving the RV on ice especially if you’re not used to it being a Florida boy. And have a great time.

Tarponator

Thank you.  I've done a bit of driving on ice, but never with a 4wd while towing the RV.

conchydong

That's good that you have some experience in snow and ice. When I was young and dumb and went to Colorado the first time to snow ski, I rented a car in Denver to drive to Snowshoe and it was a blizzard going there. My butt was puckererd so much that to this day I only chit vermicelli size turds. JK.

There is no driving on ice, there is only inertia taking you places.. in a straight line at undeminished speed until acted upon by an outside force... like another car, tree, or ditch.

Your intended method of navigating is my favorite style. One trip with the middle daughter we used the "Drive-in, Diners and Dives" road map, trying to hit as many as we could, driving the routes required to get to them.. It was fun.

Be safe, park and stay parked if there is ice and enjoy the trip and take that "Get Vaxxed or Die" bumper sticker off of the back of your trailer.

Would chains be a good investment?

gogittum

If you're not experienced with chains and esp. on an RV, my feeling is that it'd be best to leave them at home.  Just putting them on big tires can be a real hassle....they're very heavy and very awkward.  When weather gets that bad, hole up and wait it out.

When I moved to Silver City in Nov., 2009, I pulled into the RV park in a snowstorm, pulling a 33' Sprinter pull trailer behind my pickup.  It was a seat of the pants thing, feeling that trailer starting to go and correcting for it....using throttle sometimes and trailer brakes sometimes...and sometimes both to pull it straight....sometimes steering opposite to get where I wanted to go.

I've got "lots" of experience with ice and snow, including 8 years in the mountains of north Idaho and a winter driving log trucks on the Olympic Peninsula.  Correcting for slide with a heavy rig is far different than a car or pick'm'up.  

You want a pucker factor, try bringing an 80,000# log truck down a long, steep grade on glare ice.  You "can't" tense up.....must have free and easy control and don't daydream.
