I'm back from Buses by the Depot. This is the closest campout of the year for me.  Of course I have the video rigth done and it's right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViwjfB9A7fU .
 
A few seconds into the film you'll see the BD's new side tent.  I wish I had shot a little more closer footage of it . That thing is sweet!  It's amazing well made, versitle and looks like it can withstand some higher winds than most EZ ups and other side tents. What was really impressive was how it stands by itself when the van is gone. Those old side tents with the thin little poles did not fair as well.  I think I'll pick one of these things up after I do the dash fan and heater core, clutch, etc. etc.
 
Luckily I managed to just buy what I came for Sat and that was a new front heater core and fan. I resisted the urge to buy some of those 90% off goodies in the clearance room, none of it anthing I needed but it was SO cheap. :)
