Based on our search, camping and motels will be filled in the totality path. Many are even offering a 2-night "Eclipse Package", so those in the path know about it!

yea i found the same thing..   i know quite a few campgrounds are making special events out of the eclipse...

its funny..  the wife and i had been talking about finding a place to see the eclipse.  at soccer practice for the kids a good friend says he and his family are making a vacation to the tennessee area out of the eclipse..       we just laughed and told them that we were also..    so th eword is out and it sounds like its going to be a popular thing..

i reserved a spot in Murphy, NC..  should be in totality for 2m26s at 2:34pm

   seems like a lot of people are gonna be staying in the path to see it.  i was afraid that if i waited to get a spot that i'd have trouble finding a place..


  weather is just a chance i have to take..   vacation is vacation..

the rtic coolers look nice too..  have been looking at those..  same as a yeti for half the cost..  i have an rtic tumbler and that thing keeps ice in it for a long ass time..

its neat..    i so wanted a tear drop type of trailer but none are big enough for me,the wife our 8 year old and dogs so we had to go pop up.

thanks, i'll check it out...    i'm sure your unit is way more insulated then my tent on wheels..lol   

yea amazon has a million of them..  i was hoping that someone here had one they really liked that they could recommend..

  i have a QS 8.1.  a friend recommended a ceramic heater to take the edge off if it happens to get cool out..    anyone have a recommendation on what size would do the trick?


i won't be out in 30 degree weather (by choice anyway) but say in the mid 40's..

thanks in advance...

if you call livin lite they will tell you to order from a dealer and they will drop ship it to you...

lol.. yes kinda just worked out that way..

we went there for lunch on the way home..  man was that place good..  was stuffed for the rest of the night..lol

 i got the measurements from his rear deck..  i'm gonna have a friend (welds alumn for a living) make a rear deck for my 8.1.  figure it will be very useful... 

so i picked up my 8.1 yesterday..  ofcourse i brought my good camera to take nice pictures of the trailer inside and out and my stupid ass forgot it was in the car..lol

  anyway its home and sitting in a tent garage waiting for a nice day to set it up.  my 8 year old is dying to check it out..





a good friend also bought the red one...

Made our first CG reservation for 2017.  Some PA campgrounds open on 31 March.  Well we will be at Locust Lake CG on the evening of the 31st.

that the poconos?   had a couple friends that had homes in the locust lake area right off 940

If anyone is interested in a like-new QS 8.1 awning, I have one I'd like to sell.  It works great, I just don't use it.
