Where are you located?

In Central Texas. After posting this and having a good honest conversation with the better half i have concluded Backcountry is my deal not hers. So I guess i have a van for sale. Time for me to get working on gettingmy 2000 dodge ctd set up for my needs and hunt down a cruiser fancy motel on wheels.
