[Riding in the Wilderness - Sonoita, Arizona - ATV Tour to The Empire Ranch]

Nice story and pictures!  Thanks for sharing.  I’m putting this place on our must see list.

If you are passing thru South Carolina, some of the best BBQ will be at "Scotts Variety".  It is a small family operation that has been featured on national TV shows.  It is located in Hemingway, SC.  Be sure to take a walk out back into their smoke house.  Talk about good!  

Sounds like a nice trip planned, enjoy and be safe.

KE3HAY,  I also want to hook up a 2 meter rig in my MH.  I like the idea of putting an antenna on the latter.  Do you have any pictures you can show us of your antenna mounts and what antenna you use for 2 meter?  I just run with a HT for now.  Having the mobile unit hooked up in the MH would be great for those evening nets while at the rv park(s).

Thanks,

[Countdown to the Total Solar Eclipse 2017]

We are lucky enough to live about 30 miles from totality and plan to drive to my uncles place near Lake Murray in South Carolina.   As there will be a few family members traveling in from other states, we are making a long weekend event at his house.  We plan on dry camping on his property.

I did order some viewing glasses a while back on the cheap.  I've seen a deduction of the cost from my bank account but no glasses yet.  I'm going to see what's available locally if they don't show up soon!
