Perfect Charley.&nbsp\\; I'm good with that.&nbsp\\; I'll even volunteer to go scouting with Dale.&nbsp\\; It's a great idea to find a place we can really call "base camp".
&nbsp\\;
Early/Mid November is a wonderful weather time down here in Central Florida too!!!!

I am in, let me know when you do the scouting party, I might join you all if I am in country. Looking like my other trips are getting interfered with by my work schedule, think that should be a little calmer by then. Jeremy does that think have air con, DVD player,&nbsp\\;a trunk and trailer?

Jerry, it's got the trunk. no trailer or dvd, heck I haven't even figured out where to put my gps yet. Traded the KLR, they gave a damn fair price on the trade considering I'd put 4,700 miles on it in the 4 months I had it.
