Just a quick thanks to Bullfrog. We had the pleasure of meeting him by the marina at Lake Powell, and I must say, he is a great human being!

Thanks brother, we appreciate you very much!!

Are you saying you met Bullfrog at the Bullfrog Marina on Lake Powell? I'll bet he knows the place well.

It's sort of funny after doing this and watching lots of campers I can usually spot full timers. I almost scare them to death when I pull up in a government vehicle with a uniform on, but on the other hand when off duty and stop in my private car they think I just broke down and often come out wanting to help! A big smile and a howdy helps when dealing with officers. Any of the tribe gets this way PM me and I'll be happy to say hello.

I was just through there, first conversation of any depth was with the Sunday staffer at the visitor’s center. The offshore marina hardware store had what I needed too.

Shoulda, coulda, woulda I could have probably given what you needed Tooley and you could have taken a hot shower while I found it! If it was a blonde haired lady that loves dinasoars at the visitor's center she used to be my partner and that is the reason why! I understand as I don't say hello much when I travel actually pretty much a hermit and my wife is worst but your always welcome to stop by and find out how really to enjoy this place. Did you get to see some good fall colors yet?

Lake Powell is a very interesting looking lake. It has so many inlets, nooks and crannies. If it is not too windy it would be a canoer's paradise...I think. I have made it one of my travel goals.
