Jeremy Nix added a discussion to the group Colorado CampgroundsCamping For Free at Williams Fork Reservoir
Williams Fork ReservoirFall is in the air. As I type this my fingers are numb from the cold creeping in through the window behind me. Needless to say, but the season for camping is coming to an end soon, and The Pig is probably going in the garage for awhile. There is no way the old beast can make it up the drive way in snowy conditions. I want to take apart the heater anyway. I took a look underneath it the…See More

Emmy is attending Jeremy Nix's event
Crest-Fest at Challenger Golf Course
August 3, 2012 to August 5, 2012
We have enjoyed the festival for two years, people are friendly, grounds are delightful, camping is good, and food and beer vendors are of a good quality. We attend many festivals nationwide and have found this is one of our favorites because of the diversity of the musical offerings.~ Charlie & Cathie Berry, Pagosa Springs, COSee More
Emmy replied to Jeremy Nix's discussion Crest-Fest in the group Colorado Campgrounds"You just pull into the parking lot, get your tickets and camping pass...and then just drive into this huge field. It's not shady, and it's pretty sandy. I tend to stay on the very edge of the field....gives you alot more…"

Hey we are going up to Crest-Fest this weekend. Has anyone in the group ever attended? Any advice on where to park my bus? I can't seem to find any camping pictures up in their website or their Facebook page. See More

Some jerk stole my rear view mirror pig ornament, and my buddha statue from my dashboard. I found that ornament in a box of old stuff in the bus when I purchased it. It was the inspiration for naming her The Pig. Some people's children. I swear. …

- Now you know why I call her the pig. My 76 Bus has a lot of rust, and there is a lot of work to be done...and its gonna be a long work in progress. All I really care aboutis the places it can take me and the fun experiences it presents. I'll send some Camp Site Reviews from Colorado! Or from wherever the Pig takes us for that matter.

I've been loving his round the country tour and trip, and growing more envious each time I read the blog.
I fly into Denver about once a month, would love to see your Bus next time I'm out there.
