One of our favorite places in Newfoundland!  The boat tour always seemed like what Yosemite would look like if filled with a lake.

Ever seen Hetch Hetchy?

It reminds me of the fiords of Norway!   :o

Indeed they were Dave.  At sales events in San Diego Stadium I ruined a few sales by loudly asking "how can you sell these when adding the driver by himself exceeds the weight rating?" with potential customers nearby.  
    The listed weights were in the high 5900#  and the GVWR was about 6000#.  A friend completely emptied his mothers old micro motorhome, including removing the microwave that came with it, before trading it in when, she bought a new Class A.  He weighed it (without him in it) before he transported it, and it was still over the gross allowed weight!  What's your rig's weight FULLY LOADED, and do you care if it's over the...   
     Toyota stopped selling the bare chassis' because it was giving them a bad reputation. I wonder if they were in lawsuits about chassis failures?
     Another co-worker that commuted in a similar MicroMH, soon thereafter, was going around a turn (near work) and had the differential come apart and leave a half axle in the street!  (More story....when this happened, another coworker admitted that he had lost the entire rear axle of his micromini on the highway a few years earlier....)  I had a Ford F150 P/U with a camper at the time, so I was paying attention to such failures!    RonB

We had inherited a Sunrader Motorhome that was built on a Toyota 4 cylinder chassis. This was our first introduction to RVing and I knew very little about weight limitations and the like.

We used it for a few trips until we learned about the dually rear end issues. I ordered the replacement rear end prior to selling it to a couple from Arizona. I had the rear end shipped directly to their home. They were aware of the reported issues and were happy with the arrangement.

The rig was very small and I’m positive that I had overloaded it. I’m lucky it didn’t blow apart on us. Glad it didn’t. Years later we purchased our ‘15 RB with its much improved cargo carrying capacity.

Gregg,

Our cat, Sooty, had a desert garden of his own. I created it for him so that he could escape our little blind terror, Muppet. She used to hover over him and bark incessantly. He never batted an eye. Sweet cat.

Sooty passed away a few years ago but his garden remains as a reminder of his life with us. A little more green now but still fond memories persist.

Mike,
If I had known a paradise is this close to my home .... I also understand why you had a vacation home here. I keep asking folks how much a small cottage on water front cost. Apart from kidding more then natural beauty folks here are too nice compared to NJ :-) thanks for your help with planning. Not looking forward to coming back from newfoundland but atleast it will be on the coast line via two new national parks to me.
Regards,

In my defense, I didn't post the first cat picture......
This is little mama.   She and Sweet Pea adopted us at the cat rescue place. 
Since coming home they have taken over our home.   I've always said if cats had thrums they would conquer the world.

Roughing it in my daughter’s MB in Grand Canyon NP.  She got a camping site in Mather Campground on the south rim. We rented a hotel room just south of her in town.  Kind of fun hanging out in the LD again.  She made fig Risotto for dinner. 
She added a nice spice rack. The base is just taped to the cabinet. And the jars are magnetic. When going down the road the jars of spices are on the closed stove cover.

Living the good life with family, a delicious dinner in a National Park in a LD!!   That’s just terrific!   Since we didn’t get an invitation, we stayed home today and replaced a toilet in our home.  John’s life or our life??  😂

My daughter and I spent a week in Mather CG last year. Woke up to a foot of snow. Loved every minute of our stay. Even swept the snow off of the solar panels.

Had a wonderful meal at the Arizona Room overlooking the canyon. Hermits Rest and the Lookout were other highlights of our visit.

Heading back in April of ‘25. Hope it snows again.

Beautiful place to camp. Good photos! So many of the small coastal outports don't mind visitors finding a place to dry camp overnight.
