That scenery really brings back some memories! My parents used to take me to Duck Creek numerous times every summer when I was a kid. We used to sleep in the back of my dad's Toyota pickup and fish the local lakes and ponds. I loved that whole area. I'm really looking forward to heading back there at some point for a visit. Thank you for sharing!!
 
Your welcome I really do love it here ten minutes and I am on a trail I haven’t ever been on always something new

Man, it just felt good to finally get outside!!! They opened up some Forest Service area this last weekend & we took the opportunity to get the BEAST dirty...

It was about 30 miles of easy dirt roads with some nice easy stream crossings. Not challenging, but still quite fun.

It will be a Sportsmobile type van when it's finished. I'm still working on it & have a ways to go...

I've drooled over these things for about 25 years. It took some time and some serious saving, but I was finally able to afford one when I retired a couple of years ago.

Now, I just gotta get it finished before I'm too old to use it :tonguewink:

Love the Dixie National Forest area! Just did a trip out there the other weekend, had a blast! Barely anyone around and a ton of options to camp!
