    Just attended the quartzite rally. Meet lots of fun people. Including TucsonJim and Rudy .
    The Moyers overcame very challenging weather to stage a great rally. First time to a rally and the gdrv community are a great bunch of people. The SRT's were run ragged though. They probably need assistants to field questions while they work on tsb's etc.
    A good time was had. Would definitely recommend.

            TucsonJim TucsonGinnie Wendy and I stopped by to say goodbye when we were leaving but couldn't find you. Thanks for your efforts and work during the rally. I learned a few things from your presentation. Including that "Not a smoke detector" in the bedroom of the trailer!

            And when leaving..... in the back of our truck..... was a propane tank, a generator, and 5 gal of diesel.....

              In the photo below, you'll see five gallons of gasoline, a full propane bottle, and a partially full water container. Not seen is a five gallon can of diesel fuel. When the fire broke out, these items were chained together in the back of my truck to prevent theft. I had so much adrenaline pumping, that I lifted all of them out while still chained together and ran with them to get away from the fire. So that was probably well over 100 pounds.

                Jim, did I miss something?? Did you loose your unit to a fire? Hopefully everyone is OK.

                  I am sure Jim will reply with the full story shortly but that was his old trailer, after leaving the National Rally several years ago I believe.

                    August 29th, 2016 Joseph - Since then, I've been doing a presentation on emergency preparedness at rallies. Scott'n'Wendy was mentioning it because I did the seminar last week in Quartzsite.
