Duck flying south

It was time to leave Truth or Consequences, but not time to head back up the mountain. I wasn't sure where I'd land tonight, but it seems to be here ---> X




After a year-and-a-half of faithful, near-constant use, I retired the Original Butt-Tent™. I bought the 2014 model - keeping up with the Joneses, you know.



Neither gone nor forgotten





Thanks for helping me celebrate my millionth hit! That was fun.

Why did you change tents - what does the new one have that's different?

Stay warm - these nights are cold!

I was spending a lot of time healing the zipper, and I finally decided to stop.

Contessa said...

Whatever that really entails!!!!! Glad you are happy and out there.

Bill said...

Roll on GLD! Happy trails.
(Love the pictures)

Thanks, Bill!

LOL, Contessa. Mostly it was whispering words of encouragement while I carefully shepherded the ... coupler? what is that thing called? around tricky bends. Often it worked, but then I'd have to zipper-whisper next time I accidentally unzipped the wrong way.

Contessa said...

Phew, glad you got a new one :)

Great photos.....love the long road ahead. Oh, and nice butt!

JO said...

Congrats on all the hits. Hope your new butt tent lasts as long as the last one . It sure did serve you well while it lasted.

Well, you sure move fast! I was camped next to you at RH in the red and white. Figured I'd give you a day to settle in and was then going to come over to introduce myself. But, you up and left before I got the chance. Safe travels to you.

Bummer, Pleinguy! I was just a little too cold to be without electric, and a little too far from the vault toilet. And, I think I was feeling like PV was my real destination, although I don't know why.

Jo, it did serve me well for a long time. I'm sure the makers didn't intend for it to get such intense usage.

Thanks, Jodee! It doesn't make me look fat, does it?
