4 Tms in Fruita, UT
In the last few days (I lost track of how many & have been w/o internet connection for over a week), I've spotted 3 other TMs in Capitol Reef NP. One was passing thru heading west. One was a 2619 that a young couple from Colorado Springs had found in MO thru this website and they were really enjoying it. The last one was a 2417 being used for the very first night by a couple from north of Denver. I've gone over 6,000 miles this Spring and these were the first TMs that I've seen. When it rains, it pours!

Met a new TM owner at Show Low Lake CG this past weekend. Got his 2007 2720SD in Jan after down sizing from a 5th wheel. Suggested he check out the forums. Since his TV is 2006 Jeep Commander asked about what the ran into on setting up the brake controller. Used a pigtail and no trip required to a Jeep dealer for computer programming.

Another sighting
Today, we were checking out Melton Hill Reservoir campground near Lenoir City, TN and saw a TM25. We have no idea what year, but it looked pretty doggone old. It was not white, but kind of cream colored (maybe from age?) We did talk to a lady. She said it belongs to her son-in-law and daughter from Lenoir City and she didn't know what year it was.

How did you like Melton Hill? My brother's family lives in Lenoir city and we're looking for a place to stay near him for a visit.

TM on 101S near Gilroy
Saturday 6/9 -- spotted one headed south when we were headed north on 101 just south of Gilroy CA. Not sure of the model and didn't spot the TV -- if I had and it was a BIG pickup loaded to the gills with off-road bikes etc. I would have guessed it to be PopBeavers...

Melton Hill
We like Melton Hill. They have upgraded the shower houses (solar). We have only stayed there one time, but liked it. We made a rule that we couldn't go back to the same place and camp until we hit all the TN SP and TVA campgrounds that we wanted to try!

last fri, 6/8/12, while heading out for the weekend, sighted what looked like a brand new 2417 being towed by, I think, a dark colored Toyota Hylander. It was going west on Rte 20 in Weston, MA while I was heading east. It was a quick passing and I blew my horn and waved as this was a very rare sighting for us. This is only my second sighting since getting my 2720 over 2.25 yrs ago.

I saw a newer 2619 headed in to St. Andrews State Park here in Panama City Beach, FL on Saturday. I think it had Mississippi plates.

Well I can't tell a lie----so I did not see any TM's on our River Trip. The Elbe from Prague to Hamburg. But on our bus side trips saw lots of trailers. My wife thinks she spotted a RV park vary near the Harbor in Hamburg.
