I can only speak for myself here, but I usually forget about taking pictures until the adventure is over and then kick myself for forgetting.  I do admit that it's a little hard to snap shots while driving, using the cell phone, eating a pop-tart, and holding a cup of coffee between my legs, but hey, that's the American way!  My lovely wife Missy is the one who always remembers to chronicle on our adventures with photos.   This was the case with Patrick Mauck's recent 500+ mile move to Flagstaff Arizona with his FC-170 DRW.  This is just a guess, but I'm willing to bet he had his hands full keeping his fully loaded DRW revved up on some of the climbs and descends that he had to make on his trip.  Fortunately his wife was following behind him on the trip and was able to get a few shots of the dually "In action!"   This picture was taken just south of Page, Arizona.  Patrick had just finished making a steep climb for several miles with the Dually and came upon this beautiful overlook.  From here, it was several miles of testing out just how good the brakes are!  This shot also tells me that Patrick is also prescribes to Doctor Vern's words of wisdom.  Looks like he's fitted his FC-170 with a  vernco tm. custom tonneau Cover!  This second shot is of Patrick and his pride and joy at a motel that they stayed at in Panguitch, Utah and I'm not sure, but the look on his face says, "Honey, we should have stopped at that last rest area!"

 Thanks for sending us some pictures of your adventure!
