Truck Camping Photo Thread

Did you leave it there to find next year?

 

Thank you.

We really like it. Quick setup too!

 

No sir, was the result of a snowball fight with the wife.. hands got cold, flew off in the heat of battle. Lol

 

Wow, glad you got it back. That is some serendipity there. Stuff like that scared the crap out of me, so I bought a rubber Qalo ring that I wear camping now instead of my real one...

 

Yeah, was definitely a good day. Even brought a metal detector.. But didnt even need it. She found it sitting in the grass.

That's a good idea too, never thought of that.

 

Yeah, it is $20 for some good piece of mind. It has the added bonus of stretching to fit if your hands swell while exercising. Mostly I got it so I didn't have to worry about my ring at work (I work with a lot of tools), or having it cut off if I broke my arm mtn biking. My wife loves that I am always wearing a ring now

 

Interesting.. You have my attention. Lol im gonna give these a look. I too work with tools all day in a machine shop, and it is always getting snagged. It's a very basic (inexpensive) titanium ring.. For those reasons. I knew it would get beat on, not only at work, but play too. Problem is, its a little big and can't be resized, plus the fact it's a regular pipe-cut so the hard edge doesnt help at all. I just need to get a new one..

Lol! That, and like I mentioned above, they can be replaced without breaking the bank.. We knew it might be a possibility that I would lose it or damage it in some way with all the BS it would see. Lol

 

I can't recommend them enough to people who work with tools. The rubber ring is nice, especially when working with electrical stuff. I take mine off while working with rotating tools (mill/lathe/etc). I think there are "safety rings" designed to tear away before dislocating your fingers, but I didn't look into those much. Thus far mine has taken a lot of abuse, stood up to a lot of chemicals, and is just generally more comfortable than my regular ring. Which I now wear maybe twice a year when I pretend to be respectable at gatherings. When mine is trashed, I'll gladly fork out 20 bucks for another one.

One of the machinists where I work has a titanium ring, he's always scratching pieces and then having to polish them. lol.

 

Posted a trip report too, but just got back from exploring UT and CO. Awesome.

 

Didn't now if you were joking or not hard to read emotion.

 

Sylvan Lake SP, CO.

Wish this dude's semicamper wasn't there, forgot to retake it after he left

 

A couple from last weekend in the mountains above Beaver Utah.

 

What lake is this? I'm in love with the southern Utah mountains! My happy place

 

Its Puffer Lake.

 

I learned not to sleep in the back of my truck. The tree would have killed me if I had slept in the back of the truck.

 

couldn't the tree have fallen anywhere your tent was too? either way that sucks!

 

Actually, it did fall on my tent. Had to be cut out of my tent.

 

well now. that would be pretty terrifying! glad you made it!

 

I didn't know what had happened. At first, I thought it was tw members messing with my tent. It was 7:30am and we were all sleeping.
