Ok happy campers, where are you headed this year. Extra points for the out of the way destinations

pmclemore · 01-12-2007, 11:03 AM

I plan (well, maybe "plan" is too strong a word) to head South to Charleston SC and then to the northern gulf coast - FL, AL, MS, LA. Ultimate destination is Big Bend. I read the notes on North Padre Island, so may incorporate that, too. On the return trip, I plan to visit the Austin and San Antonio areas, then make my way up the Natchez Trace. I figure about 6 weeks for this, and starting about mid March unless my feet get too itchy.

You can bet I'll be checking all the threads before I leave.

Pat,
We plan to hit some of the same areas during late March and April. Will travel across the southeast and on down to Big Bend ... and Padre Island if it can be fit in. Two dates are fixed, we will be in Austin, Texas the weekend of April 14 for the Austin Fine Arts Festival and we'll be in Chattanooga , TN the following weekend for the 4 Bridges Festival.
We'll be looking for you!

We started the year off at the Florida Can Opener Rally in Santa Rosa Beach. What a neat time. At the end of this month we are going to attend the Vintage Rally in Montgomery, Texas, and visit a few friends in the Houston area. We also plan to hit the Hiawassee Rally in Georgia. In the spring we plan to do a long trip to the Dakotas. We plan to spend some time in the Bad Lands and do Mount Rushmore in South Dakota. We also plan to Tour around western North Dakota.

Santa Barbara vicinity in the early spring, Norcal rally at Casini Ranch in April, Hood River, Oregon in June, Sierra's in July, "Sag Wagon" duty in August for family bike ride through Glacier Ntl. Park in Montana. From there to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons? Lots of possibilities...until reality and work kick in.
