Shmellmopwho DCLB EXPO BUILD

Well......my daughter was a little sick, and my wife started to get a little sick. My wife and I both thought we would be okay to proceed with our Lake Trip. We thought wrong. I'm an idiot and thought we'd be okay getting a camping spot on Labor Day weekend with no reservations. STUPID!! We got to Lake Tioga around 6pm to find out it was full. We drove around and saw that the other 2 nearby lakes were full as well. The sun was setting and we were panicking trying to get a place to stay. A local told us about a good dirt road that led us to a very dispersed camping spot so we went there. Everything was okay until bedtime when my daughter started coughing up a storm and couldn't get comfortable from 10pm till 2 am. Needless to say we didn't get very good sleep. This morning we woke up and all felt like crap so we decided to head back down the mountain into Mammoth Lakes and rent a cabin where naps and sleeping would be much easier on my daughter since being out in the cold with a cold is probably not the best. Anyways, hopefully we can have a little fun over the next few days while we're here lol.

Here's a couple pics I got that I liked

 

Thanks bro. It is what it is. Yeah hopefully we'll have fun with the cabin and go explore during the day. Hahaha yeah the front sits on my light bar. Nice and sturdy!

 

I liked this one on the Prisma app

 

Good call thank you!!!

 

Hahaha sucks to find things out the hard way doesn't it?

 

SWEEEET!!! I want to get a Kayak myself one of these days. Nice man.

Your rig is sweet!!!

 

Haha yeah bro, it was a good deal for a good quality kayak! I'm stoked to try it out! Gonna get it out in the water tomorrow!

Thanks man! It's my second baby! Hahaha

 

Hahaha I can imagine

 

Hahhaa I know kinda boring in here but here's a couple more cool pics from the trip. We just got back at 4:30 tonight

 

Not boring if you were out! Didn't know you were camping Ryan. Looks like you and your girls had fun!

 

Your daughter looks so much like your wife! Haha looks fun man

 

Haha it was a blast man!! It was definitely an adventure!!! Ups and downs for sure but definitely memorable! I got in my kayak with my dog at Lake Mary and 5 paddles off shore my dog freaked out and shifted all her 50lbs to one side violently and flipped us into the water! It was 46 degrees outside lol. Sucked at first but then a couple hours later I couldn't stop laughing. Then my dog and I were walking in the woods and she got stung by a small swarm of bees!

Good times definitely outweighed the bad though. RAINBOW FALLS! Was awesome. Giovanni's Pizza in town was delicious. Seeing my little girl run around in the woods haha. It was a great time!!!

Haha I'm glad, she'll be pretty like mama lol! It's funny cuz we 50/50 on who she looks more like. 1 person will say she looks more like my wife, and the next will say she looks more like me haha. We had a blast dude! It was a great time

 

hey man! I wanna take the family out soon. What's the deets on the cabin you stayed in. Would you recommend it? I'm thinking maybe 2 nights camping and a few more in the cabin. I think i'm just gonna copy your entire trip LOL

 

Hey man. We stayed at the pinecliff cabins in Mammoth Lakes. Address is 150 Woodman Street Mammoth Lakes CA 93546

Talk to Tracy. The cabins are vintage but they were inexpensive and rustic. We like that. Didn't need to spend a ton of money for a super nice place. Ask her about the 2 bedroom place that she has under her tenant "Paul"
Don't know if she'll remember us well but you can mention our names Ryan, Heather, Cheyenne, and our Dog Roxy stayed there a week ago.

It was a cool little place and we only paid $100 per night.

Let me know if you have any other questions. The cabin is also very close to the center of town and the park. You'd like it

 

cool thanks man! that sounds good I may look into that. Hope your little one is feeling better and didn't pass it to you LOL. I know how that goes.

 

Hey thanks man! I appreciate it! She's feeling better! I didn't get sick....yet haha. It seems like whenever my daughter gets sick, either my wife or myself gets sick. But not this time thank goodness!

 

Awesome pics!

Just ordered a welder and should be here on the 20th. Still need to get the bender. Our warehouse guy quit awhile back so I'll have to teach myself.

 

Thanks buddy!!!

Heck yeah, which kind did you buy? You'll love that tube bender! Ah that kinda sucks but you'll be fine. Go to weldingtipsandtricks.com and you can learn a lot of stuff there!

 

I copied you on the Hobart 210 and still need to put in the purchase for the bender. I have a feeling as soon as everything arrives I will get busy at work and wont be able to touch it for a month or two. Oh well! Sooner or later.
