People do stupid things like chase the cattle. I rather imagine their patience isn't all that great, especially since so many people are now "camping". The steps in my other rig were much easier to navigate than these. Even though I've never fallen, I'm very careful about entry and exit, hanging on to something the entire way.Nancy Kissackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03225296192386107554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220245417166381981.post-73915682567025616912021-03-20T00:18:53.699-05:002021-03-20T00:18:53.699-05:00Tom and I were just talking about that we need to ...Tom and I were just talking about that we need to take a ride tomorrow or Sunday to look around.

They're probably used to tough conditions, though. Poor Yuma! He assumes all other dogs will be friends. That dog looked big and not at all friendly.
