One of the people, on this forum, that I greatly admire, Mark Larson (GpnAZ), is featured in Micheal Smith’s (mellow_mike) latest interview, in Truck Camper Adventures Mark Larson ClickyBe sure to check it out!b

Thanks Bryan for the shout out on my interview, I think Mello Mike is doing a great job promoting the truck camper industry!

Boy Mark, I knew you were famous I just didn't know how much!! (Well, Mark has had his pictures published in Arizona Highway Magazine many times) That's a great interview and yes Mike has a nice new magazine going on, you're a perfect fit. Cool jeep pic too. I also want to say that Mark spends a lot of time on the roof of his camper, pointing at things. I don't know what things, he just points...a lot.Thanks for the link Bryan, I haven't gotten the notification yet.

There are some web sites that feature people pointing at stuff. Like a site for Park Rangers Pointing at things. Maybe I should point Mark to one of those sites for finding some of his own people there. :BFor those that had signed up to Mellow Mike's previous Web Site, will need to sign up to the new site for updates and notifications. I was caught by surprise when I too was not getting notices and ended up signing up again. Mellow Mike has some good information to share and worthwhile to have that notice.Happy Trails, Whazoo.b

It was a very good piece on where Mark came from and where he's going. I was surprised that Mark traded off his Lance for another brand. He is one who lets no grass grow under his camper. I can identify, but I don't plan on a new rig soon. Spending long winter evenings sitting around "The Rack" (my description of Lance seating around the dinette) can get old.Be sure to have a good look at Mark's 'Crosses' pictorial. Our little Gold Rush Episcopal Church (1854) is in there, one of the very few that have pics of an interior; courtesy Mark's Gold Rush Church Crosses pilgrimage. These were not snapped on a Coolpix.jefe

A great read, Mike!Kudos to you for rustling-up the 0.1% who push the truck camper genre to the "outer limits" :DKeep up the tremendous work; good luck on the WRT expe.S & D

Another one of our TC Members is now Famous! GpnAZ

Great article!! Mark is a very talented and dedicated photographer. So dedicated that he locked his DW out of the TC one chilly morning at Death Valley in her PJ's!! But it was only for a couple hours!! :B

Yeah, DJ really bailed me out on this one, even gave her coffee to calm her down! By the time bka and I returned from our shoot, they were talking away and drinking coffee, although I think DJ had a little JD in his coffee!:)

Many thanks to jefe for hosting me and getting me access to his church and showing me the town, him and Jeannie were the most gracious hosts!

Whazoo was asking for tips on photography, so I point and say the picture is that way, not in my direction;) Whazoo is a lot better photographer then he lets on to be!
