We Bought a Toyota Tacoma


Well, we weren't planning on getting a new truck.  But, we saw this beautiful 4-door Tacoma and couldn't resist taking it for a test drive.  Don't do it!!  There is no going back!  This truck drives like butter with the power of a bull.  Maybe two bulls.  The Ranger was great, but this truck will give us a little more power for towing the Tab up those mountain passes and plenty of room for the dogs in the back.  Besides, it looks great!  I heard this is what happens when you get a trailer...then a truck...then a bigger truck...then a bigger trailer...etc.  Still like the Tab, so hopefully this will be the end of upsizing for now.

Waiting for Spring

It has been a really mild winter this year in Salt Lake City.  As mild as it has been, old man winter is hanging on.  I am really itching to get out camping again this year.  I was hoping to get out for the Presidents' Day Weekend, but it is still too cold.  I guess I'll just have to hold out for March...

"It's spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!"
