Gas Old tires, and Bingo

Well, I have my wet bolts, suspension done, one tire on the Montana, all jacked up in the air.
With the cost of Oil approaching $110.00 a barrel, it may very well end up sitting like that from now on..
I could throw the rest of the tires on top, hang a line on it to dry clothes and look like one of Bingo's home state residents way up in the Mountains.
(Not on the Rivera where Mr. Bingo has his estate and Yacht Club...)

Ozz, the price of diesel is one of the reasons we left Monty in Florida and is probably why it will stay there. We, however, have a gas dryer so we don't need to hang the wash like you are suggesting.

Ozz,
The only thing you left out and might disqualify you is that there has to be a Cadillac parked out front with a pit bull chained to the bumper!!!

Ozz, you need to keep moving ahead and start traveling now while diesel is only $4.00 a gallon.

It's $3.95 on this side of the country. At least it was yesterday. I haven't looked today yet. This is criminal!

Ozz, if you are trying to mimic Bingo's area you will need an old wringer washing machine and a rocker on the front porch maybe the hide of a racoon streched out on a board hanging on the front of the house.

Jim,

Figure $6.00 or $7.00 a gallon. Not going to stop me, just means I will travel less distances, and stay longer. We plan to travel 150 to 200 miles a day, and stay 3-9 days per stop. Of course that excludes the over nights at Wall Mart.

There is still a lot of this country I haven't seen.

Good attitude John. I just hope it comes down soon.
Now I hear that they are considering sending troops into battle yet another place in Lybia. When will the madness end...

It greatly disappoints me that no-one, I repeat no-one has mentioned an out-house as part of the mountain decor!! Grandma had one that I remember well!!!

Bingo, the outhouse with a half moon on the door I just thought that was a given - must have. And beyond that back in the woods just a little more was some funny looking copper kettles with some copper coils. Now I wonder what purpose they served.
