Well Today saw an interesting situation, we were in the Park next to Hwy 101, heard siren, saw flashing red and blue lights, and some horn honking. Well seems an ODOT Incident Response Truck had pulled over a truck pulling a smaller 5er. When I first looked I thought maybe they had a flat drivers side rear tire on the 5er. Then I moved up closer and the 5er had no windows, no wheels or tires on the rear axle, and no license plate. It was being towed by a GM 3500 DRW. Not sure where the guy was headed, most likely the dump.

I passed a salvage unit being driven down the highway. The thing was seriously off-kilter.

I posted about it to Facebook and was all like, "OMG y'all, look at this!" When my wife's friend said that they bought a trailer in worse condition, towed it from Tennessee to Pennsylvania and completely rebuilt it (including rebuilding slides). They enjoy the work and it made a great camper for not a lot of money.

I hope it wasn't his pride and joy.
There is something special about camping in an RV.

Nice way to buy yourself a headache in a remodel.
