HEY RB...
 

beat ya 2 BiG BEAR :stick: took a :drive: up yesterday to re-scope out the campground as I made a res for the next 2 days :woot: drove into town & by BLT's :LOL: SO pretty up there & it was really nice & warm already :thumbup:

let me know later this summer when you two will be up there..... might make a few runs this summer :D

You had great weather! We were going to go next weekend for three nights. Cool Cabins has a special stay two or more nights and get one night free for one week. I called to make reservations yesterday, but they said the owners of the Teewinot weren't participating. I said "It's not booked. they're willing to walk away from money?" Sara said she'd call them and call me back. She didn't. I'm pissed off at Cool Cabins right now. We're thinking of trying someone else. It's OK. The following weekend we're making our annual Father's Day run up to Solvang with 50 Corvettes. Most of them are turning around and coming back the same day (Saturday), but we're spending the night and having dinner at the Hitching Post and breakfast at Anderson's Split Pea. We'll do Big Bear later in June. I'll keep you posted.

Yeah it was great weather & should be the next 2 days :woot: thats too bad they wouldn't let it be available :( I am sure there are other cabin rental places & don't doubt my girl will find one!

We had gone over to Lake Arrowhead too on the Rim of The World HWY man that view is :crazy: butt saw hazy as there was a fire off near Laguna Beach I think. :(

If we get into town I'll snap a few :photo: 's for ya :LOL:

GREAT weather up there RB & great time night & day from the full campground Sat maybe 3 - 4 of us total :D

very peaceful & quiet except when I heard the Coyote's howl in the night :eek1:

took a few :photo: 's for ya & will toss in soon :hello:

OH also noted a couple other than Cool Cabin's Cabin Rental places in town so yeah tell the sweetie girl to look into that!

Also having towed Jackie along was a good test run.... no problemO :shrug:

Having her was helpful as we scouted out a few places..... checked on Jenks Lake which was quite cute lil Trout :fish: ing place with a nice dock. Went over to the Lake and re-checked on the other campground there Serrano which is right across from the lake :cool:
Also went to get a close up view of that house that has the Observatory :eek1: DUDE has mega antennas on the roof as well & tons of Solar Panels ( maybe he's Art Bell RIP 's Bro :suspect:

Whoah when we were driving around in the Serrano Campground I saw a sign that said BALD EAGLE Habitat no disturb :nono:

C-6 started a feeding frenzy with peanuts :egads: between the squirrels , Blue Jays & blackbirds it was :crazy:
WAS :cool: 2nd day when I noted mom was actually getting full to feed her :baby: 's they were 2 cute! :)

There are very few squirrels left in Big Bear. There was a terrible mange epidemic, at least partially attributable to squirrels oversocializing at bird and squirrel feeders. I remember when squirrels were everywhere up there. So sad.

Well at least at the campsite we were at which as you know is on the 1st leg up the Mt on the 38 they were making :baby: 's so theres hope :LOL: most find them annoying & spreaders of disease but I think if you just leave them alone they won't bug ya oh & don't feed them like someone was :LOL: MAN you should have seen mom chew up the Cheez It I gave her :rofl:

Also checked out the Heart Bar Campsites & they were nice as well :thumbup:

Sidenote: I had picked up a Real Estate Mag here in Blowmont titled Vaca Homes Lake etc... as I looked thru I see a full page one & it said SAMMY HAGARS Home :what: had its own sound proof recording studio too :cool: offered at 5 mil 2

not much compared to the 14 Mil one in there :eek: WHO PAYS 14 MIL for a lake home :faint:

I like the car, but this was seriously the worst episode of Top Gear ever.

:rofl:

& on that note her Engine light came on while :drive: ing her up there :suspect: it later went off butt :scratch: if it was the tow affected her or the altitude??

RB you ever see those :crazy: JACKED UP CARS that are always parked in front of that one house along the road that BLT's is on? Next time I'm gonna stop & get a :photo: one is a like 70's Camaro & one is an old Mercury Capri :rofl: HUGE TIRES & lifted :eek1:

Blame it on the GLOOB sensor.

Kevin Costner. He built a gigantic home on the water on the North Shore, east of Fawnskin. His first wife, Cindy, got it in the divorce settlement.

Yeah, they've been there for a while.

hmmmm guess I din't account for those people w / $$$$$$$$ :LOL:

that area I think called Bolder Bay has some amazing log cabin homes :drool: shirley they too are :crazy: $$$$$ :o

defiantly some Mt folk amongst the tourists up der :LOL:

That's Boulder Bay. Boulder Bay has some pretty pricey places.

yeah that wUz boulder in momish :LOL:

yeah luckily C-6 is :drive: ing on that stretch cuz I'd shirley :drive: off the road looking up at them gorgeous things :eek3:

I hear building in Boulder Bay could be rocky business.

:rofl: butt well worth it the boulders are amazing :cool:

There are houses built around and on top of gigantic boulders. You need to take a boat tour around the lake to appreciate this.

Someday :thumbup:

Are we going on a boat ride?!?!? :clap:

Yes and swimming in the lake in concrete encased shoes.

I thought we'd just go fishing, like Fredo.
