    Default Tas to caste her fate to the wind - Oct 2nd to....

    My Tasmanian Devil and I plan to head south from Squamish, BC, to Mcallen, Tx,(and then to..) next Tuesday. I will stop at Surrey Can Am dealership to have my Channelz & TIPZ Led fender lights installed and then SOUTH (or east, then south). I will probably weave my way down through the Continental Divide (weather depending). I used to live and fly in Montana, Idaho and Colorado so those states are my old stomping grounds. I always had mcs while living there so I will dodge snow/ice conditions, if need be. Once I get to TX, I plan to sell my 5th wheel trailer and RV site improvements. Now that I have a new Spyder and feel free to roam again, I don't want to spend my winters tied to an RV resort. Sarah

    I hope you have a great trip and don't hit too much weather. Where do you plan to spend your winters now? Or are you just goinjg to wing it and go where the road takes you?

    Hi Spyderann01, I plan to be where the sun is shining, but not in a drought condition; where the water is clear and cool; where you can see the stars clearly at night; where there are trees, mountains, and good folks. With this "global warming", I might be moving around alot Sarah

    BTW, I just posted a couple of pics to my personal info but can't figure out how to get one to come up with my messages. My Tasmanian Devil is gently forcing me into the 21st century. That should be my new motto. My old one was "It's a great life if you don't weaken!"

    Hey, MurphyBrown, check out the picture. Thanks for all of your help.

    Spyderann01, Thanks for the invite. When I get around to returning to Canada, I will probably stay upwind of the Rockies. Who knows

    I head south with Tas either tomorrow afternoon or Tuesday, at 7AM. My first stop is Surrey, where I'll have my new fender Led lights installed. I will probably spend the night in Hope; then Couer D'Alene, Idaho; somewhere ESE of Salt Lake City, Utah; Santa Fe, NM; north of San Antonio, TX; then into Edinburg, TX. This is a rough itinerary as Tas may (does) have a mind of her own. Maybe I'll see more
    on the way. Thanks for the good wishes. Sarah

    Hi Tas - when I came down from AK, I planned to camp and explore western MT and ID. However, the fires were still precluding visits by tourists. In the end I couldn't get into any the areas I wanted because the were still burning. Don't know how they'll affect you.

    crossbowme, You are right about the fires. I just got the current reports. I am just sick that the "Frank Church River of No Return" Primitive Wilderness has so many fires. That is my favorite old stomping ground. I'll go through McCall instead of Salmon, Idaho. I'll try to head over to Stanley. Thanks for the heads up.
