It's been a long time since I've updated our travel blog with our adventures. About time I got back to it!
This past weekend we headed up to Mormon Lake, outside of Flagstaff, Arizona for the
Overland Expo, an extravaganza of extreme trucks and campers for getting to far out places. Check out the pictures! The orange one is an Element modified for camping.

A gathering of the the folks from the Truck Camper forum on RV.net were there and it was a chance to met up with everyone in person. While I socialized, Mike put in miles hiking on the Arizona Trail. He racked up 11.75 the first day and 11.9 the second, finishing the stretch in the area except for 2 miles that were closed for repairs.

It was very windy during the day with no campfires allowed so we sat in a circle introducing ourselves while shivering from the cold. That's me bundled up, two over from the folks under the blanket.

Our TC was cozy and warm the whole time. It was neat that with all the outdoor enthusiasts gathered at the event, the evenings were very quiet. No shouting or partying, no loud music or barking dogs. I'm guessing there were a couple thousand people there during the weekend. In addition to the TCs, there were lots of tent campers and motorcyclists. It was good to get away for the weekend and enjoy this great state.
