I had my day surgery this past Tuesday and all went well,   ....go back next Tuesday for a "look see"....2 percent chance of infection and all hell breaking loose...but I don't intend to have the cat lick my incision after its licked itself...if you know what I mean....won't be able to go "Full Throttle"for about 2 months, so I'll have some time here at home to do some stuff.....I haven't had a chance to go on my Day trips.....yet. Hopefully will go after my checkup next week...can't wait...But I've had my favorite Blogs to follow and enjoyed their immensely...plus it gave me ideas for future trips.....So I thank you all for your interesting adventures and posts...

Since I've had some down time on my hands, I started doing some research on my electrical needs on my trips and viable options...to provide me longer "Boondocking" opportunities....I am looking at solar....couple that with my generator and I think there may be a marriage in the making....analyzing my requirements, various viable platforms, cost, hardware needed, etc....have done alot of research, read numerous blogs and started asking questions of some of those bloggers....interesting to say the least...there are plenty of options.....it appears that 130 watts of solar would be plenty, try a new battery group...maybe two six volt golf cart batteries(T-105)...upgrade the convertor, get a pure sine inverter and for ease of placement, a mobile solar panel(s)...More research to do, but getting close....

There also appears to be a trip to the "Modification Genius" Larry Gamble...I've got a list of stuff I'd like to have done on the Casita... sometime soon I'l make an appointment with him to do his Magic....my plate is full and as they say...Let the Games begin....A New Year means new opportunities......and a smile on my face....will start posting on a regular basis again..."Funk"...Be Gone.....Thanks for checking in..Horst Sends

ps...this is why I love to go on adventures...for your viewing pleasure...Horst

Days of Funk...

First off...Wishing all of you A Happy Valentine's Day.....

Its been a while and I haven't embarked on any great project...yet...though I see I may not be the only one in a "funk".....I have been doing stuff......its just not been with a camera in hand...I did go on a "Boondocking" Trip, testing some systems...but no Photo Ops.....However, I've decided to start doing some day trips within a 100 or so mile radius of here...there are some interesting towns with a lot of history.....I'll call it "Backroads of Texas"... as seen thru my Eyes...though I am going to have  day surgery the end of the month....and have been running around get lab. work, etc done....the only downside is no lifting for 6-8 weeks...so no camping trips

BTW...I read this story recently and felt it could be the answer to bear encounters.....

  ...I couldn't resist...The devil made me do it...my donation towards a cup of humor for today...

With that I'll leave you with some photo's of Days gone By..Till next time...Happy Trails....Horst
