First port of call is going to be NW Overland Rally, Plain, WA, 25-28 June,
then meander carefree, across the northern states.

Cheers, Doug

If traveling through WI, you're welcome to stop for a night at our place in the country or we can recommend some nice places in Northern WI. PM me to arrange directions.
Enjoy our beautiful country and have safe travels.

Doug, It was nice to meet you. Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures as you travel the US in your Yellow Sportsmobile Van / RV.

BRHolt, JFet, it was nice to meet you all as well. I didn't leave my rig much due to the excess heat.

brholt, jfet, deltabravo & others,

NW Overland Rally, Plain, WA

Look out for the Yellow 2008 Ford e350 Sportsmobile 4x4 6.0 diesel camper.

My Ram Truck & TC, will be home in Perth, Western Australia.

I will be wearing my Les Hiddins Akubra(Bush Tucker Man, ABC), Australian special order hat only made in Adelaide, South Australia and other hats.

I'm bring a few Australian made Football's, to show you our national game, first started in 1854, in Melbourne, Victoria.

It's an oblong ball without pointy ends, that we kick or hand pass during game to then obtain goals, over 4 twenty minute quarters. It's a contact sport. But we'll just be kicking the ball(s) for a bit of fun.

Everybody gets a kick in our game.

See you there, Doug

[brholt]

I'll look forward to meeting a bunch of people there. I'll be in a Silver Ford with an AF1150

I will look around for your hat. 🙂

That hat reference referred to a photo in which he was wearing it, on Facebook, which would confirm the someone found the correct Doug if you were to go looking for him on Facebook.

I will be there with my 3500HD dually with an AF811 atop it, and my 20 cargo trailer. Trailer is hard to miss because it has a roof AC on top.

Hi Doug, we will also be at the rally in Plain. I will look around for your hat. 🙂

My wife and I will be in our camper, a homebuilt unit on a Isuzu NRR flatbed.

G'day,

Any advice on an insurance broker for my 2008 Ford e350 6.0 diesel camper van?

Can I get Good Sam Insurance & Breakdown cover.

G'day,

All the pictures I have, have been taken by other people, so via Photobucket I don't appear to be able to repost, but upon my arrival at Sportsmobile West, Fresno, I will post pictures of my 2008 Ford e350 EB50 Sportsmobile pop top roof, 4x4 6.0 diesel,
Re sprayed, etc.

My Truck Camper is stored in Perth, Western Australia, and we use it every month.

Go to www.sportsmobile.com then click on 4x4.

Doug will be traveling in his Beautiful Sportsmobile, picked up in Fresno. Can't wait to see it!

Safe travels, SherriffDoug.

which brings you close enough to stop at our house for a night on a quiet street and beer so we can hear your stories.

Welcome when you get here!! I'll be passing through Fresno that day on my way to camp in Coarsegold at an Escapees membership park along Coarsegold creek (probably dry by now though...) on the road to Yosomite. PM here once you arrive and perhaps we could meet up for a cup or meal if you are so inclined! I'm going to be out of contact up in The Sierra mountains until then, but here in Rancho Seco until this Thursday with good internet cell reception. Safe travels!

Doug,
I saw your post on NATCOA's Forum that you were coming to the States by way of Fresno, CA to attend the 10th Anniversary NATCOA National Rally at the Garden of the Gods RV Resort in Colorado Springs, CO from July 22nd to the 26th. You will undoubtedly be the star attraction since you have come so far to attend this event. I'll be there and will be looking forward to meeting you. Have fun at the NW Overland Rally and safe travels from there to Colorado.

Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, Grand Canyon , Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse carving are all musts. Do not ask for the English meaning of Grand Tetons 🙂

Robert,
All those wonderful locations mentioned, maybe not all, this time!
I have my Australia flag ready to fly, all over the U.S.
Three flights to get to Fresno from Perth, 23-24 hours, but it will be worth it!
Cheers, Doug
