:D  i made it in one piece....
after 2400 miles with boat in tow... (17,830lbs of total weight... on my 6,200lb truck)...  :eek
4 days on the road....  :cool
and the only problem i had... was the running lights on the trailer... still had brake lights, and wasnt driving at night.  :jumpie

so, all is well, wondering what is up with that  :cold  stuff...?
but it seems to be getting better.

anyway... if anyone knows anything fun to do in Lancaster Ca. PLEASE let me know... after Florida, i need some excitement...  or atleast a  :grouphug
:peace

High Desert for sure....
on my way to work last week, the outside temp showed 6*F
"single digit"... (at 4:15 in the AM)

damn glad i pulled the plugs on the boat!  :D

yep, Palmdale is a couple miles from the house.
i'm looking for some new "hangouts"...
lookin kinda grim at first, but the people are great.
so, i'm thinking things are gonna be OK.
:p

Slow.... naaa... i stopped in Texas for Christmas with the folks... had 6 days of paid travel, and thats all i could drag it out...  :beat
got tired of wondering who was messin with my stuff while i was lounging around the hotels  :drink

80 mph speed limits across west Texas... it was great, and when the cummins got in the mountains, i had to back off the skinny pedal to keep from runnin people over.

nice drive all in all, and i know my rig is ready to hit Meade or Mojave, or the river... ready for some warmer weather.

I run up through Lancaster / Palmdale at least once a month on my way to California City, Jawbone and other dirt bike riding spots. :D

Not only does it get a bit nippy up there this time of year, but the wind sure can blow. :cold

That whole area sure has grown in the past 10 years or so....it's hard to tell where Lancaster starts and Palmdale ends :stupid

It's a fact of Life:

After Monday and Tuesday, even the Calendar says : WTF .......

Cale and Jen (The Lovinlifes) are great hosts. Castaic is about 40 min away from Lancaster (south on the 14 to the 5 north a few miles). Check out the thred on Hotboat (in Hot Spots West) and feel free to PM one of them (lovinlife or Mrs Lovinlife) for directions to the party. :beer
P.S. It also looks like some of us from the AV will be meeting up and hanging out at the L.A. Boat Show on feb 3rd. :cool

No problem. My wife and I are kind of co-hosting the party with them this year. I'll PM you the directions and put you on the list of interested folks if you want. :good
They also are on the "Freeboard Challenged" and the "River Rat Life" boards, so you can PM them there as well if you like. :)
