The annual Spring Parade to the Tetons steps off smartly at 0800 this Sunday in Georgetown, Texas. The two participants will be driving a 38-foot, 1996, Monarch-style Barth w/Cummins 325hp intercooled & turbocharged diesel behind a 3060 Allison World 6-speed. Notable is the highly polished Sikkens paint: Midnight Blue Sapphire upper, Metallic Silver center, Royal Blue lower; shining 22.5 Alcoa wheels; large American flag streaming from the ladder. Towd is a gleaming jet-black Navigator with 18” shiny-chrome-spoked-wheels. The parade route is due North up I-35>135>81 to York, Nebraska; hang a left on I-80 to Cheyenne; right on I-25 to Casper, another left on hwy 26 to “home” at Colter Bay on Jackson Lake. Entertainment includes "On The Road Again" by the Red-Headed Stranger; Jan & Dean's "Dead Man's Curve", and when Lethargy nods her ugly head the Beach Boys' "Little Deuce Coupe" and Springsteen car songs. Mandatory stops are the Dairy Queen in Concordia, KS where the Blizzard is presented in the cup upside-down to prove it is the real thing; Cabela’s “World Headquarters” in Sidney, NE where we don’t buy the overpriced cheaply-made clothing but do salivate over the firearms; and discounter Sierra Trading Post Headquarters in Cheyenne where we stock up on quality-made, inexpensive outdoorsy clothing and footwear.
Spectators are invited to wave; the best viewing is from the Great Platte River Road Archway Monument which spans I-80 near Kearney, NE. The Fall parade will leave Wyoming in mid-October.
Watch for us, and WAAAAVVE! Gunner

Got any room in that toad for me? You wouldn't hardly notice. Where do you stay at Colter Bay? Not the NP campground?? I don't recall what else is there that would handle a coach of that magnitude.

"Where do you stay at Colter Bay? Not the NP campground??"??

Employee RV Park: Far superior to the NP campground or the $45-per-night RV Park and it is "free". 50 amp service, free telephone, wide streets which are curved so one is offset from his neighbor, well spaced sites with the forest behind me and a beautiful view of the mountains from my patio; unfortunately, I have to stand up to glimpse the lake through the trees. Aaaand..I GET PAID!!

Where do I sign up??

Was at Colter Bay last summer with son for campimg and climbimg. Hope you dont get snow this early. Great place to spend a summer have fun. JKB

"Theme from Route 66"

Thanks, Dave. We already have this, sung by Ella Fitzgerald with Count Basie ca 1950?? We'll add "your" rendition.
