Re: What's in a name?
bigarm wrote: Well, we are fairly weird. When we built our house and moved to Montana 10 years ago, our kids asked what we called our property. We said "Cole's Hole" as kind of a joke. The kids had a stone engraved with "Welcome to Cole's Hole" so it stuck. We then a pit dug for underlayment for the driveway and decided to make it into a shooting pit which became "Cole's Other Hole". My shop became "Cole's Wood Hole" and when we put up a building to house the wood lathe, it became "Cole's Chuck Hole". So when we bought our toy hauler it became "Cole's Road Hole" and the new truck became "Cole's Tow Hole". Better hope nobody ever gives you a donkey...491Views0likes0CommentsRe: Gold Camp Rd, CO.

Just to clarify, we took the MGs on the paved High Park Road, not on the gravel Gold Camp Road. We try to stay on paved roads when driving top down to reduce caravan dust for those unfortunates bringing up the rear! As for being near a mechanic, anyone with a car that old is his own mechanic. Plus we travel with tools, extra parts, cell phones, and, when we are not near a cell tower, 2-way radios in the first and last cars. The club trip last fall covered 1,200 miles in Colorado and New Mexico, which doesn't include the 50 miles traveled through the gold aspen-covered hills by "train" (Galloping Goose #5) on the C&TS Railroad. Reminds me of a joke from a British car website: Q: Why haven't the British developed a computer industry? A: They can't figure out how to get a computer to leak oil. :W240Views0likes0CommentsRe: Where are you NOT camping this summer.

Not to say I've seen everything there is to see but I enjoy my home much more than all of the traveling. Indeed. We'll be wishing we still were there this summer. The first time my BIL visited after we moved to Leadville, he looked around from my deck and asked, "Where do you go when you go camping? You're already here!"369Views0likes0CommentsRe: How to stop neighboring campers from

They seem to steer clear and never make eye contact with me again. Just be sure to have a plan for the guy who licks his lips and says, "Ooh! Yes!"199Views0likes0Comments
