THE OVER THE HILL CAMPING GANG

Howdy everyone and thank you for your interest in THE OVER THE HILL CAMPING GANG.

First thing, OVER THE HILL doesn't mean an age group, it's just a name of an ol comic western series!

I was born and raised in Colorado, attended and graduated from Abraham Lincoln High School in Denver. I taught fourth grade Colorado History, then junior/middle school Colorado History then onto high school and a brief time as a college instructor. I have written a couple books about Colorado History which I haven’t even thought about publishing but been told by several people that I should though I'd like our camping group to be more like one of the titles of one of the books. I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING UNTIL I GET THERE!

Camping and Getaways will mostly be dispersed camping. Although those who intend to utilize their RVs, I only look for camping areas which are primarily tents, small/popup trailers, vehicles which are like PRIME/AMAZON trucks or a camper shell attached to a truck, meaning I’m not much into GLAMPIN’ CAMPIN’. Wherever we’re camping, I’ll be planning a Getaway into areas of historical value/meaning. If I plan a camping trip I won’t be planning a hike. It’s all about other places to see than hiking a dirt trail.

Get Togethers, Happy Hours, Brunches or other types of dining/drinking and just sit around and talk about most anything but POLITICS. I plan/organize these events to get away from it. Why discuss it while others are trying to have a good time?

Colorado is the eighth largest state with a lot to see. I taught it all and now I want to see what is left. It's all out there, along the highway shoulders. We’ll follow the roads and drive without a destination until we get there. STOP, LOOK AND LINGER. Every highway bend, every scenic overlook, every canyon crook, and every alpine pass yield a glimpse into the beauty, wonder and awe of Colorado's Natural Soul.

Your suggestions are always welcomed and pretty much placed into action.
I hope to see you around the campfires, along the trails, shopping in the historical towns and driving the scenic byways and mountain passes of Colorado!

Thanks again for joining THE OVER THE HILL CAMPING GANG. It’s best to top off your gas tank!!!

Always drive safe and always remember, "One person's sunset is another person's dawn."
I'll see you all soon.
Don
