Jim, we met Roy and Carol for a couple of hours in Whitehorse, Yukon on July 13. They were on their way South, and we were heading north. They were enjoying their trek to the North, traveling with a group of over 20 Mercedes LTVs. They were leading the group on that leg of the trip.

Some IPhone pics:

Roy was showing us their vehicle and explained that they were “glamping”, while we were “camping”! LOL

”Glamping is where stunning nature meets modern luxury. It’s a way to experience the untamed and completely unique parts of the world—without having to sacrifice creature comforts.”

In the words of a friend of mine who has one - No $hit. Hat's off to you real campers! And hat's off to those who know better.

I received the following E-mail from Carole on 2 Aug 18 in response to an E-mail that I sent to them:

We r still on the road in North Dakota. Should reach home in about 2 weeks. About 3 months traveling and it has been fantastic.
