Dennis, a lot of us will miss you in Maggie Valley this year. Good luck in your endeavers. Hope things work out for you. Enjoy your retirement!

Thanks Doug,

I'll be back at MV hopefully next year. I'm hoping to catch a couple of the other Trike Talk gatherings as I work my way across the states. Might even make it to the Deadwood rally if all goes well.

I picked up my toy hauler Saturday and will do a shakedown trip in Down East Maine in Sept. This will give me some hands on with setup and breakdown of my camp site. It will also give me an idea of what I need to live on the road and what I can leave behind.

Not sure if I will haul it south before the snow falls or just take a chance and leave with everything in Feb. I will make that call once my house sells..........I will post some pictures once I get a few things worked out. It's crazy not to have a working computer:xzqxz:

Dennis... Congrats on retirement. When you finally get on the road keep us in mind down here in Texas for the TrikeTalk Texas Hill Country Reunion - held at the end of September or first week of October. Heck.. you might find you would like to stay a while in the Texas hill country during the winter.... very mild winters, some good riding, and good BBQ.

Thanks Paws,

I'm sure I will be passing through Texas on my way west. I went to basic training in San Antonio, technical school in Wichita Falls and then my last assignment was in Abilene. Passed through Midland back in 1993 on my way to Ca. Will have to plan a couple days around Midland.

You will be missed at MV.

Carla has it right, The Hill Country is a good winter stay. We stay there every February and March. $300-$600 mo. full hookups. San Antonio is close by, but is not The Hill Country!

If you like the beach or fishing, Port Aransas is an inexpensive quaint island, where you can drive on and fish off the beach. $450-$800 fhu. Thats where we are in January. The riding is non existent, so we move up to the Kerrville in February, to ride the Hill Country.

Hey Dennis.... There’s nothing to see at Midland but high prices, a bunch of dangerous, crazy traffic, lots of wind and dirt in the air, and mesquite bushes!

Those are lots of reasons why I finally moved to Kerrville after having been in Midland since 1976.

The closest thing to scenery anywhere near Midland is the Fort Davis/Alpine area.

John is right - the good riding is in the hill country and San Antonio has enough military interest for anyone - as well as everything else there!

Plan on it - especially in the cooler months. Texas is too hot to enjoy much during summer months - riding-wise anyway.

I'll add Kerrville to my list!! I've heard of "The Three Sisters"....looks like a nice ride. I'm sure there are many more fun roads. I have friends in the Houston that I would like to see. Maybe could even stop and bother Zook..LOL
