You are getting good use of the 4Runner.

Have you planned out 2013 trips?

I am planning a camping trip to Metberry in March if you are interested.

I have a few trips in mind for 2013, whether they'll work out or not is another question?

I won't be able that run since I'll be back in Utah next month.
