With all the help it took about 5 minutes to change the tire. Big hole in the sidewall on a less than 2 week old Goodyear Silent Armour. Glad I got the road hazard coverage at Sams Club. Tire was covered, but they charged $15 for road hazard coverage on new tire. Beats $200+ for new tire:wings: Thanks for the help guys.

In 4 years of traveling North America fulltime, this is one of the best campsites we've ever found!

Who could pass up this opportunity?

It didnt matter where we were or what town we rolled through, of the 33 trucks in the line-up, John's VW Bus always drew the most attention

Looks like you hit mission point peninsula on the way home, Luis.
Pat, that campsite picture with your truck at HRB rocks
I wish I could have seen more of your well prepped Tacoma mike.

I got a few more attractive rear ends:

Luis, I love the blurry shot of your feet waking up on the beach. I'm sure the way you felt that morning, that probably looked clear in your eye piece....********
