    Enjoy your videos. The wife and I are part timers also. We travel 3 to 4 weeks at a time 5 or 6 times a year. We are Harvest Host Members and also mooch dock and boon dock. Glad to see you got out of your comfort zone with your travels. We rarely travel with reservations and just head out. I do like to have the first couple of days planned out with reservations, but after that it is a free for all. During the past four years we have only had 2 times when just pulling into a park didn't work out and we had to keep looking for a place to stay. We are also planning on trying to make the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque next year. Hope to see you there.

    Stan I have a question for you. I have recently got a 2022 Chevy 2500 HD 6.6 gasser. Any way I see you are towing an Imagine. I have a Reflection travel trailer 300RBTS. I am wondering what you are using for hitch and weight distribution? I had a 2019 1500 Chevy Silverado before. I know there is a height difference between the 2. I will probably have to get a drop down but, not sure. I figured I would ask you for a recommendation since you have the 2500 HD. Keep on rollin!!!
