Retro Camping with the Aristocrat travel trailer

Here are some pictures of the 1969 Aristocrat travel trailer and 1979 Ford F250.  Just some retro fall camping in Montana.  Sometimes I wish things weren't changing all of the time.  I don't want to sound "old" but some things were better back when.  Now it seems if you want a travel trailer it has to be huge.  WTH? (what the heck?)  I pulled into Cascaed Campground along the Clark Fork River in western Montana late Saturday night and had a hard enough time backing the little Aristocrat travel trailer into this spot in the dark.  (and I can really back up a trailer,..)

Anyway I wish they'd stop changing blogger too.  This is my first post since they changed the editor so we will see.  I have no idea what this post is going to look like.

There is of course a lot of forest fire smoke in the air throughout the west.  It made for some very warm lighting.  It's also been sort of hard to put up with all of this smoke as i have a very hard time breathing in it.  None the less I had a nice time camping.  Played guitar a little and got to read a little too.

It looked nice there but the forest fire smoke is getting to be a drag. None the less it's always nice to be camped in the forest.

These photos are incredible. The warmth of the yellows and the deep grooves in the bark of trees. Wow! Sounds like you made the best of it. Happy Autumn!

Thanks, the smoke in the air with the sun coming through it was causing all the colors to shift, but it also made breathing diffitult. They say it's going to rain next week and that should clean the air a bit.
