Camp Day 4 (near Marquette, Harlow lake.) We went into Marquette for dinner with great new friends.

Near the kilns, dirty Taco now.

And on our way home we found this for sale. A 1982 BJ42, no price and the guy hasen't returned my calls.

With a FJ40 beside it, no for sale sign on the FJ40?

I can dream.

We were in a parking lot in Manistique (sp?)on the way home and guy asked about the mud on the trucks. We mentioned the Overland Trip and he said he had seen the news footage on TV.

We also got some good news coverage.

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.

Man, there are some great photos being posted on here. I've got a few uploaded to my U.P. Overland Gallery so far, but here are some of them as a teaser for those who dont click on links

Abandonded Logging Trucks on the Bill Nichols Trail

Tom playing with some of the toys we carry in our backseat

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

This thing could jump!!! All this over a pine cone...HAHA!!

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:

Tom's quietly competent Tundra ^^ deserves a proper mug shot:

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....********
