Bird of the Week - mbulriss - 09-21-2011 10:55 Don't miss this week's Bird of the Week picture, especially if you are in a land of 100+ temps, which we had so many days of this year. Rose Mary Smith has sent in some great shots in the past and this week's picture is another one of them. She has had limited internet connectivity out in the woods, but she took the time to send in that picture. Every now and then, when Bird of the Week pictures have more of a story behind them than we can fit in on the front page, we try to share a little of the added information here for those that have an interest in learning more about the location, the subject matter or the circumstances behind the picture. As Rose Mary put it: "She has been living in the bus up on Burnt Mtn in the Oregon coast range since January last She is on equipment watch for a logging/thinning contractor, which includes some fire watch duties now that we are in fire season. She has been in 7 different sites so far as the job sites move regularly. The beauty of it... miles of BLM forest in varying stages from wild, thinned, old growth- new growth. The wildflowers were incredible this spring and early summer. Wildlife abounds...lots of elk, there are bear, cougar, deer and lots of birds. Incredible rock formations and waterfalls and native plants. Priceless... oh yea I am paid to be up here...haha!" Thanks Rose Mary. I think it's always nice to have more context behind a picture, especially when it may peak someone else's interest to try a similar location, or a similar job in this case. If you have a picture you would like to share as Bird of the Week, please send it in now while you are thinking about it as my reserve stock is getting low. As always please include details on year, model, location, etc. Thanks, Mike Bulriss 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX - where it finally rained - a little Bird of the Week - Julian Cane - 09-21-2011 15:09

As seen in the current front page picture, Bob and Arlene have literally been from sea to shining sea in their full-timing adventure over the past few years. If you would like to have your Bird as Bird of the Week, why not send in a picture and details right now while you are thinking about it. Thanks, Mike Bulriss 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX Bird of the Week - mbulriss - 03-17-2012 07:08 Last week's Bird of the Week featured Dave & Sam Swan's "Cygnus". The Swans traveled the country full time for several years in the Bird. I had not visited their web travel blog (http://www.swansonthego.com) for a while, but did so last week, only to find out that the Bird of the Week was headed to a new owner in Florida at the end of the week. Ironic timing for the picture re-run! If you would like your Bird (or a picture of several Birds) to be featured as Bird of the Week, please send in a photo with the information on the Bird(s) and the location of the picture using the link below or directly to my email address. To see prior Bid of the Week pictures, go to the Photos on the WanderlodgeForum site and go to the album for Bird of the Week. Send in those travel pics while you are thinking about it while reading this! Thanks, Mike Bulriss 1991 WB40 "Texas Minivan" San Antonio, TX Bird of the Week - swanbirdcygnus - 03-19-2012 05:12 Mike: Thanks for the note. Yes, Cygnus has gone to Matt Hunt and his family in Florida. We sure enjoyed our almost decade of traveling the country in Cygnus, but we felt it was time to change our life course once more. We are happy that the coach will also enjoy more life, on the road and camping with a nice family. It was getting depressed sitting in our driveway in North Carolina and not out being used. We remember the time the photo was taken in Utah. It took me two days to dig out around the bus enough to get back on the road. We immediately headed south and warmer climes to dry out!
