The road gets kind of narrow huhh. If I get a vote I say we can take sandwich stuff along. I have a couple of small folding tables I can take and a 10x10 easy up shade if we need it. Some one will have to carry it for me but we can take it. Everyone can bring some folding chairs. It shouldn't be to bad. Or we can do what everyone would like just a suggestion.

Please remember we are amateur photographers. The long hill can barely be seen in the video to the left of center in the video.

You did better than me. I still can't figure out how to load a pic. on this sight.

Thanks for all the effort. It will help on the trip.

Okay, here are some more shorts. There are 3 parts to the first one because Charlene's finger kept turning the recording off because we were bouncing quite a bit.

The last one is leaving Rio Grande Village with the Sierra Del Carmen mountains in Mexico briefly visible in the background.

Shawn thanks alot. It wasn't too much trouble and the girls had a real good time. That made the deal for me.

I am leaning towards folding chairs and the picnic lunch when we go. With 4 to 6 trucks I think the trip might go 5 hours or so. So if someone has a canopy for shade (there is next to none) the could bring it might come in handy.

Works for me. I will bring the shade and a couple of small folding tables.

Thanks for the videos.

How do you post a pic?

You have to have access to something like Photobucket or flicker where you upload your pics to. Once they are loaded there then you just copy the image tag and paste it into this space.

Youtube turned out to be pretty much the same. First, get video off camera into the computer. Takes forever. Once videos are in your computer and you can find them you get a YOUTube account and upload your videos to that. This step only takes eons. Then you find the list of MYVIDEOS on the little tool bar on top. When your videos show up, after you found the "myvideos", you can find the little window next to each video with the link to the video and copy and paste it into this space.

At least that's the way it has somehow worked for me. I kept the videos short because I didn't want to run the battery down and miss something cool later. Next time they will be better.

This is the back bumper.

I am also having a rear bench seat put in that folds down so my father-in-law can take his siesta while we bird hunt.

Shawn
I have showed the wife you work on the K. We really like the work and the set up. Makes for a very useful pinz. An AC unit and she would be good to go.
