More thanks from a future C-D owner! This site has been invaluable beyond words.
I have learned a great deal from one of the masters (Dr. Bob) about what can be done by an expert, and from others of the frustrations with problems encountered by newbies, certainly more relevant to my anticipated experiences. In total, I am confident that any potential problems are fixable, especially with the continued advice available here.
I have followed the travels of Wanderer and Halcyon, Hunky Dory, and the others who did the Inside Passage and Lake Powell, attended several gatherings (where the first person I met at dinner was TyBoo), attended the Factory Party (briefly met El and Bill, Byrdman, Pat Anderson; real people!).
And yes, re George's (daughter's) admonition about 'being careful about meeting people over the internet' . . . When you're meeting with C-Brats, ya better watch your back! . . . . :lol:
The first one I met in person was John Frazey (see above) - they don't call him Crazy for nothing! :shock: Just kidding - he (or Amy) make great BBQ cheese dogs.
