    Hi all, I'm finally getting around to posting my 2013 Johnson Creek trip report and videos (the videos are the good part!!). If you have a first-time trip planned to the area, be sure to watch these (and select to maximize them so you can actually see them) or any other similar videos. Obviously, video is only one of many tools but they can be a big help in preparing you for the experience. http://jdfinley.com/idaho_backcountry_trip_2013_part1/ http://jdfinley.com/idaho_backcountry_trip_2013_part2/ I'm still working on part 3 and the videos to go with it, probably ready by next Monday. Jon

    You've probably heard I've lost my medical so I've put the RV up for sale. If you could pass it along or post it at your EAA chapter, I'd really appreciate it.

Date last annual: May 2013. Flown regularly while I could but it's never had a flight longer than about an hour and a half (to Oshkosh this year <http://rvnewsletter.blogspot.com/2013/08/home-from-oshkosh.html> , and Madeline Island last year <http://rvnewsletter.blogspot.com/2012/08/flying-with-my-sons-chapter-i.html > ). Sadly, it never made it to Cleveland or New England. Everything else has been local, the equivalent of a little old lady only taking it out on Sundays.
