Where are you going?

And for those of you who live in cold winter climates, is summer too busy with building and inspection? ...do you vacation in the slow winter months instead?

7 yrs, 2 weeks left to the endless.........

Typically we wait till it cools off October-November, or real early spring, take a week and go somewhere warmer.
 
Heading to Michigan Speedway next month for Nascar weekend. 5 days of camping with wife and friends with no electricity. Been doing it for 4 years now and looking forward to it. I am sure Captain Morgan will make a visit. 5 years and 2 days until I can retire, not that I have been counting.

I leave Saturday for a week in Lake Tahoe. I have a neighboring town inspector covering for me building only, electrical and plumbing done separate inspectors.

the only inspections that will be those that will hold up progress on important work, no deck finals, swimming pools.

foundations, frames, insulation and the like will get done, she may end up with 10 inspections at the most

That's my new RV/tow rig....Not so old hot shot FF truck...
steveray, you've got to start a new thread explaining this one some more. How are you modifying the inside? What are you towing with it, where are you going with it and what do you do when you get there?

This reminds me of those "ultimate man rig" videos where they modify an old russian military transport into an off-road motorhome.

I compete with a buddy of mine in offroad "rockcrawling" ....the link I put up above was a comp in PA last weekend. He drives, I tell him where to go and stack rocks occasionally Sometimes I get to go out just for fun too in my jeeps.....I wanted something that would tow 2 "Jeeps" and not worry about overloading. Most of the box that is on the truck will probably be sleeping accomodations, and then an enclosed trailer with 2 behind it, shower, toilet,etc....FD paid $130,000 for it...I got it with 85,000mi on it for $24k....
