    Well, @Dereco, I wish it had been me...

    Having visited Newfoundland a few years back, we hope to return someday with the T@B. In preparation, we recently made a "practice" run to Grand Manan.  :-)

    On the way back from GM--near the Calais/St. Stephen border--I did score my first look at a 400 and also passed a white with black Outback/Boondock pulling onto a gas station.

    I know you left coasters see these things all the time, but they are still pretty rare in the northeast US and Atlantic Canada!

    We were traveling back from the twin cities, without T@bby btw, we were passing Lake Emily, about 10 miles East of Stevens Point Wisconsin (look it up) and on the other side of the road, heading west was a black strippy T@b 400.  Didn't notice the TV.  We have so few T@bs traveling Wisconsin roads.  I was just finishing up a 5 hr drive, starring dully ahead, when I saw it.  Swerving violently, I managed to regain control of my vehicle.  Wow.... was that you driftless?

    @TerryV6, Steven's Point. Been there done that. Along with Wausau, Madison, Milwaukee, Eau Claire, Cedarville, the Dells, Port Washington, Superior and almost every mile in Door County. I think Wausau is the prettiest city in this country. People in Marathon County once asked me why I thought that region was so beautiful and I replied that where they were from, the residents made cheese and the soil is pink (world famous rose quartz as it breaks down over millennia has turned the dirt deep pink). Where I come from, the people make steel and chemicals and cars, the air is pink and bronze and burns your eyes and lungs. I so enjoy your home state and all its attributes, even though it tries to be a copycat mitten. -Denise
    And now back on topic I've hijacked this thread long enough!

    Sunday September 9 at 5:30pm passed a white with red trim outback pulled by a red pickup with two yellow kayaks on top of the canopy. The unit was entering Tenino, WA as we were leaving. Hope the adventure was fun filled.

    Spotted a silver 320S with a Jeep CJ tow vehicle.  KOA on Shasta
    Owner's name Jack . . . he's not a forum member / computer user.

    He became very excited when I pulled in, first time he had seen another TB at an overnight location . . . Me Too!

    My first KOA stop.  Reminded of the joke; Denny's is the place you eat when you cannot find anything else.  Friendly staff, clean, pricey, and packed in like sardines.

    @MuttonChops are you headed up 97 by any chance? It would be fun to meet up if you are coming through Bend.

    I was heading home after camping for several days in the Pisgah National Forest and was traveling on Highway 70 near Ashville, NC. I saw on oncoming Tab with black trim driven by a lady. I wished we had a chance to say "hi" but we did exchanged a wave. I hope you have safe travels and happy camping.

    A T@B heading south on the Blue Ridge Parkway at Julian Price National Park campground honked as we were at the dump station & checking out after a wonderful 4-night stay in the mountains of North Carolina near Boone & Blowing Rock. My wife thought it had black trim.  I was inside pouring water into the sink & toilet for a final flush, so missed it.

    It's not a Tab but part of our family of teardrops. I saw a red and black Little Guy Max or Mini max in Townsend Tennessee today. So many visitors in this area this time of year. Its great to see so many people enjoying the outdoors even as the nights and mornings are near freezing. Happy Camping!

    OK.... just saying.... we love T@b sighting while traveling!  Better than Auto Bingo!

    Not counting the 8 other T@bs we just camped with, we just spotted our first T@b of the season.  White with red parked in Davenport WA... could see you as we drove by on HWY 2 Sunday afternoon. B)

    There are 2 T@bs in the Cade Cove Campground in the Smoky Mountains National Park. One is a 400 and the other is a 320 with silver trim. I believe it's TV is a red truck. No one was around either campsite. We had just completed the 11 mile loop in Cades Cove and were heading back home, T@b not with us.  Also saw 1 black bear. 2 T@bs and a bear in one day!

    Spotted another T@B in Washington State.  April 24
    First seen as they were turning off US-101 near Forks, then again (picture) at the beach front RV Park in La Push.  Did get a chance to say Hello, their home base - - - Sandpoint, Idaho.

    No two T@B picture because I was staying at the Motel this visit.

    Saw a white with black trim 320 Boondock towed by a silver 4Runner last weekend at Gallo Campground in Chaco Canyon.  I was camped with a small group attending an astronomy workshop and we were all in tents.  Living close by, I usually go to Chaco 2-3 times a year and usually tent camp.  I’m too chicken to take my T@B.  The road for the last 8 miles or so was worse than the normal bad and I hope the person didn’t have any problems.
