New Camper

Hello all,
Got "THE E-MAIL" last week with production pix of the 550
Ultra!!! It's in the pipeline!! Time to get serious about planning that
1st trip when we pick her up....can't wait

Closing in on a name too.

Dave and Rene

 

Congratulations!

 

Hooray! Congrats!

 

Well good for you. I remember the day we started the build. Evan had not started the forum. I kept pictures in my office. I had the build website up on a spare monitor. It was alot of good, good fun.

Congratulations and good luck you are going to love it.

 

Congratulations Dave! Our 560 is on a truck headed our way and will be here Tuesday! Soon there will be enough of us on the road that we'll need to put our number on the liscense plate - we're #406 and I think that's a cool way for us all to identify one another! Your post was titled Ahoy Mates and since your last name is Hoy, a license place could be A Hoy, cause it is one of you now!

 

Minnesota doesn't allow vanity plates on campers.

 

I like Hilditch's method of dealing with vanity plates - very cost effective.

 

Dear Bear, Ken & Peggy,
This is going to be on our list for sure. Our 550 is officially finished and we are going to pick it up May 15th! Can't wait.
So Far we have reservations at...
Devil's Lake SP, WI(1).. Wyalusing SP, WI(1)... Rock Cut SP, IL(1)... and Turkey Run SP, IN(1), Grove City OH, (home). This is our 1st trip.

We should be broken "Inn" by then...ya think? :grin:
Had we known about Tahquamenon falls we would have worked it in this time..but will later for sure.

As you can see from our Map we have our "work?" cut out.

We will do our best to document with Photos as best we can.
BTW Bear we have studied your lists and all the great advice gleaned from the forum.

Thus will be the voyage's of "JoyAhoy" as we have named our craft.

Thanks Jenn,
Not sure exactly where our spot is but we have a reservation.
we should get there early enough to try out a trail or two.

We camped three nights and did some hiking at Devil's Lake last week after pickup. Great place and wonderful views.

 

Hi Jason & Angie
