    I didn't know this video was out ,sorry. Anytime you have a video out,I sit and smile the entire time. You and your wife do a great job and should be commended. Our model A's are the perfect way to share happiness. Thanks David, much appreciated.

    Cute video... The old saying. "All that glitters ain't gold" came to mind when you reported your find at the creek. Especially liked the ol Victrola. His masters voice.

    David, we LOVE this video, and your Model A is fantastic! My first car was a 1929 Model A, and my second car, and one I wish I'd never have sold, was a 1932 Model B Ford! If I may offer a suggestion, though: You NEED a period correct stove! And, guess what?!?? I happen to collect camping stoves (the oldest being from 1866!), and I just might have a stove that would fit into your camp perfectly! Though many of the stoves back then just burned gasoline from the campers cars, I would strongly suggest you use Coleman Fuel, as it will keep the stove trouble-free, whilst auto gas will clog up the generator in short order! In any case, if you are interested in talking about the stove, please give me a shout, and I'll tell you what I have in mind for you. Thanks, again, for a great video, and for allowing us all to come along on your trip!! Keep camping, and God Bless! - Every Good Wish, Doc Mark and Sweet Bride

      Indeed. This is our first setup as described. We all start somewhere. That is something I am working on next Lords willing. Getting the car on the road was my biggest challenge! Thanks Steve
