Question for those that know Turkey Bay... how old do you have to be to operate a truck there?

Well holey crap am I behind on this thread!!! I guess this is what happens when all one ever does it work and sleep... Going back to Jim's thread about sponsors, for whatever unbeknownst reason I get pop-ups while scrolling through my Facebook feed from certain auto-cites. So far I've seen Jagg, Summitt and Panda Motorworks. As I was scrolling through these ads, because why not look at the kids toys they showcase on them, and was thinking how about seeing if they can be a sponsor or somehow provide a donation such as gift certificate... Not sure on the Panda one though, that one I think popped up because there is a little 3 year old at one of the homes I visit for her older brother and she calls me Panda instead of Amanda.

And yes, sometime I need to get a second, more fuel efficient vehicle to be a daily. Oh well, only money.
Careful with that. Get two and they might start multiplying.

Well I'm at LBL now. Got to the camp site early so I could get a good spot. Evidently I wasn't the only one with that plan haha. There was already about 15 to 20 rigs here. A whole group of Subi guys a couple jeeps and some others scattered. But this is a cool group camp spot. Has several picnic tables and a vault toilet. Not best for ladies haha. But it's right on the lake. Plenty big to accommodate 100+ rigs. But camp is setup and fire os burning. Tomorrow I will get out and explore. Colsen Hollow Group Camp. They are expecting about 84 and a few here said they didn't even know about the event. So we will see how many make it. Right now I'm not only the only Ranger. I'm the only Ford period. I'll upload some pictures when I get home with some better service.

Well I ended up being only Ranger at the event. Was a guy in a new Bronco who came down from Illinois. He went with the group at Turkey Bay. I was able to scout some easy roads and see some more cool sites. Finally did the Bisin Elk loop too. (Missed it last year) it's got me excited for our event this year.

The camp site was huge. Ranger said it was for 200 campers and $40 a night. All primative with a vault tolet. They had about 80 rigs there with plenty of room to spend out. Even a few with camper trailers who brought a generator.

I think Eric and I were at that campground on Thursday last year. Nice place... nice view over the lake.
