    Long Time Listener, First Time Caller . . .

    Hey Everybody,

    I just wanted to take a minute (Thread) to say hello and thank you. I have been checking out this site for a while now and have really enjoyed reading and watching all of your posts and videos. The knowledge I've been able to apply to my own camping style has been invaluable. Thank you so much to everyone who contributes here, and I hope to add to the value of this forum in the future as well.

    I could go on and on . . . but I think I'm a little shy at first.

    Slopes,

    Congrats on de-lurking. Welcome.

    I know the feeling, yet at the same time there has been so much good info it takes a while to absorb it.

    I preferred early on to read as much as I could so that I wouldn't ask questions that had already been answered. Doing so, I probably missed out on "new" answers to "old" questions. Fortunately several less shy folks asked many of the questions I had.

    Having said all that, don't be shy. There may be others, in fact there most likely are many, who have the same or similar questions. We all benefit from the conversations that result in some form or fashion.

    Welcome to the forum and to the world of posting.

    * Quote- gargoyle: "Shower curtain tarp. I gotta see pictures. "

    As soon as I figure out how to "quote" folks properly . . . pictures are my next challenge.

    *Quote- lori: "Hi over there in clovis from me over here in fresno..."

    Fresno . . . Never heard of it.
